Combining the KS05F cutting grade with a 55° rhombic geometry and a 0.4 mm corner radius ensures a reliable balance of wear resistance and edge stability for demanding turning operations; order directly via Metav Werkzeuge or contact our consultants for compatibility and application advice.

DCGT070204 KS05F — Tungaloy indexable turning insert, rhombic 55°

The DCGT070204 KS05F is an ISO-spec rhombic indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a blend of wear resistance and stable cutting-edge performance for a broad range of workpiece materials.

• Rhombic 55° geometry for versatile turning
• KS05F Tungaloy grade for wear resistance
• 0.4 mm corner radius for controlled chamfering
• Cylindrical hole with single-sided countersink

High process reliability for productive turning

Constructed from carbide and specified in the KS05F Tungaloy grade, this insert provides an optimised balance between wear resistance and edge stability. The result is fewer indexings and prolonged service intervals, which supports more consistent cycle times and reduced tooling costs in production environments. The grade is developed to perform under varied cutting conditions; selecting this insert helps maintain surface quality while extending usable tool life.

Precision geometry for predictable part quality

The 55° rhombic form combined with a 0.4 mm radius produces controlled corner engagement and stable cutting forces. This geometry is particularly useful for general turning tasks where a compromise between strength and access is required. The ISO designation ensures straightforward replacement and compatibility with standard holders; the cylindrical hole with single-sided countersink secures positive clamping, reducing vibration and contributing to repeatable dimensional results even on long or slender workpieces.

System integration and suitable applications

The product is intended for turning and integrates into a system comprising an ISO insert, suitable external holder or boring bar, a shim or clamp kit, and replacement screws. Typical uses include both external and internal turning operations; users should select the most appropriate chipbreaker and grade relative to workpiece material and machining stability. For practitioners requiring a simple explanation: the chipbreaker influences chip flow, the grade affects wear behaviour, and the insert geometry defines contact angle and rigidity — together these determine machining performance.

FAQ

What holders are compatible with this insert? Compatibility is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness; the DCGT070204 KS05F insert fits holders designed for ISO rhombic 55° inserts and should be matched to the correct external holder or boring bar.

Which materials can be machined with this grade? The KS05F Tungaloy grade is formulated for a broad range of materials; select the chipbreaker and cutting data according to the workpiece to balance wear resistance and edge stability for the intended application.

What does the 0.4 mm radius mean in practice? A 0.4 mm corner radius moderates edge strength and part edge definition: it reduces chipping risk compared with sharper radii while still enabling precise features and acceptable surface finish during turning operations.

How should the chipbreaker be chosen for a specific job? Choose the chipbreaker based on material, depth of cut and machine stability — light, controlled chips for finishing versus aggressive breakers for bulk material removal; the one-sided chipbreaker on this insert can aid chip control in many turning tasks.
