TCGT 16T302 KS05F Turning insert – Tungaloy

The TCGT16T302 KS05F is an ISO‑standard triangular indexable insert designed for turning applications, offering a balanced mix of wear resistance, edge stability and straightforward holder compatibility.

• ISO‑standard triangular insert TCGT form
• KS05F carbide grade for robust wear resistance
• 0.2 mm corner radius for precision finishing
• Cylindrical hole with single‑side countersink

Engineered for productive turning and long tool life

The Tungaloy indexable insert in KS05F carbide is formulated to combine wear resistance with sufficient toughness for common turning operations. The grade supports stable cutting-edge life and reduces the frequency of insert changes, which contributes to more predictable cycle times and lower process interruptions. By choosing this geometry and grade combination, workshops gain a reliable cutting edge that tolerates a range of operating conditions without sacrificing productivity. The single‑sided chipbreaker aids chip control during external and internal turning, improving machine uptime and reducing secondary handling.

Precision geometry that improves surface quality and dimensional control

A 0.2 mm corner radius with a 7° clearance angle and 60° included angle delivers a controlled cutting engagement suited to finishing passes and light contouring. The small radius minimises tool mark depth while preserving edge strength for repeatable tolerances. For customers less familiar with insert geometry: a smaller corner radius gives finer finish and lower cutting forces at similar feeds, whereas the clearance angle prevents rubbing and heat build‑up at the flank. The result is consistent workpiece appearance and reduced need for rework when the cutting conditions and machine rigidity are appropriate.

Simple compatibility and reduced setup complexity

The TCGT16T302 follows ISO standards for form, size and hole configuration, so compatibility with holders is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness. The triangular plate form with a cylindrical hole and single‑side countersink (40°–60°) fits a wide range of external holders and boring bars; the nominal 16 mm size and 3.97 mm thickness make inventory management straightforward across common tool families. Specifying ISO‑compliant parts reduces setup time and simplifies replacement logistics — select the matched holder and clamp set to ensure correct seating and repeatable performance.

FAQ

What applications is this insert intended for?
The TCGT16T302 KS05F turning insert is intended for external and internal turning operations where a balance of wear resistance and edge stability is required.

How does the 0.2 mm corner radius affect the finish?
A 0.2 mm corner radius on the KS05F carbide insert provides finer surface finish and reduced tool marks during finishing passes while maintaining adequate edge strength for repeatable dimensional control.

Is this insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, the ISO TCGT form and the specified size and thickness allow the insert to fit holders that match the form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening and thickness requirements.

What benefits does the KS05F grade provide?
KS05F offers a tailored mix of wear resistance and toughness for productive turning, delivering longer tool life and stable cutting edges under typical turning conditions.

What does the hole style mean for clamping?
The cylindrical hole with a single‑side countersink (40°–60°) ensures secure clamping and correct insert positioning in compatible toolholders designed for the ISO TCGT form.
