CNGN 120708 LX10 — indexable turning insert for turning | Tungaloy

The CNGN 120708 LX10 is an ISO‑standard rhombic insert intended for external and internal turning, combining a balanced carbide grade with a robust geometry for repeatable, productive machining.

• ISO‑standard rhombic geometry
• Carbide grade LX10 for wear resistance
• 0.8 mm corner radius for profile control
• Compatible with standard CNGN holders

Reliable cutting performance for productive turning

The insert delivers consistent cutting performance through the combination of a purpose‑designed carbide grade and a predictable geometry. The LX10 grade from Tungaloy is formulated to balance wear resistance and edge stability, reducing the need for frequent index changes and supporting longer uninterrupted machining cycles. This stability contributes to improved process reliability and helps maintain component tolerances in batch production.

Simplified compatibility reduces setup time

ISO standardisation of the insert’s form, corner radius and dimensions means fast holder compatibility and reduced setup complexity. Compatibility is determined by shape, relief angle (0°), tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness; this insert’s rhombic form and standardised dimensions allow straightforward pairing with commonly used CNGN external holders and boring bars. The absence of a hole simplifies seating and clamping options for many holder designs.

Geometry and grade for repeatable surface quality

The combination of an 80° included angle, a 0.8 mm corner radius and a measured plate thickness gives predictable engagement at the tool tip, which supports consistent surface finish and dimensional control. The insert’s geometry is particularly advantageous where a controlled corner is required to avoid chatter and preserve tool life, while the carbide composition aids in sustaining the cutting edge under varied cutting conditions.

Practical system considerations for workshop use

The insert forms part of a complete ISO indexable system: the cutting plate itself, a matching external holder or boring bar, and clamping/fastening components. The plate is supplied without hole, with a plate thickness of 7.94 mm and a size designation of 12, making it suitable for standard CNGN mounting arrangements. Selecting the appropriate chipbreaker and grade to match workpiece material and machining stability will further enhance productivity.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The CNGN 120708 LX10 insert is a carbide grade designed for versatile performance; the LX10 composition provides a balance of wear resistance and toughness suitable for a broad range of steels and alloyed materials in turning operations.

How does the 0.8 mm corner radius affect machining results?
A 0.8 mm corner radius on the CNGN 120708 LX10 gives a controlled cutting edge that improves profile accuracy and surface finish while helping to dampen vibration in medium to stable machining setups.

Does this insert fit standard CNGN holders?
Yes — the ISO‑standard form, dimensions and relief angle of the CNGN 120708 LX10 ensure compatibility with standard CNGN holders and many common boring bars when the holder matches the insert’s geometry and tolerance class.

Is a chipbreaker included with this insert?
This specific version is supplied without a chipbreaker; the CNGN 120708 LX10 plate is intended to be matched with suitable chip control strategies or holder designs depending on the workpiece material and cutting conditions.

What information is needed to select the correct holder?
Selection requires matching the insert’s form, relief angle (0°), plate size (12), thickness (7.94 mm), clamping method and tolerance class; Metav Werkzeuge can advise on the correct holder for the CNGN 120708 LX10.
