Take advantage of the combination of ISO‑compliant geometry, the LX10 carbide grade and a robust 1.2 mm corner radius for consistent turning performance and predictable tool life; contact Metav Werkzeuge for tailored holder recommendations or to request further technical data.

DNGA150612 LX10 DNGA turning insert (ISO 150612) by Tungaloy, 55° geometry

The DNGA150612 LX10 is an ISO‑standard rhombic indexable insert engineered for general external and internal turning, offering a balanced mix of wear resistance and edge stability for productive machining.

• ISO‑compliant rhombic shape
• LX10 Tungaloy carbide grade
• 55° cutting angle for versatile turning
• 1.2 mm corner radius, 6.35 mm thickness

Consistent cutting performance for general turning

This insert is designed as an ISO‑standard rhombic plate that delivers stable cutting when mounted in the correct holder geometry. The 55° cutting angle combined with the 1.2 mm corner radius produces a dependable cutting edge that maintains dimensional control during external and internal turning. The geometry minimises vibration under moderate feed and depth‑of‑cut conditions, so machining cycles run with predictable results and repeatable surface finish quality.

Clear guidance on compatibility and secure clamping

Compatibility with a toolholder is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness. The DNGA format requires a holder designed for rhombic plates with a 0° clearance angle and a locating feature for a cylindrical hole, ensuring positive location and reliable clamping. Together with the matching shim or clamp set and replacement screws, the system provides quick insert changes and repeatable seating without time‑consuming adjustments.

LX10 carbide grade: wear resistance and edge stability

The LX10 Tungaloy grade complements the insert geometry by emphasising wear resistance, toughness and cutting‑edge stability. This combination supports longer in‑process life and reduced flank wear under a range of turning conditions, helping to maintain consistent part tolerances over production runs. The carbide substrate and coating selection are chosen to suit general turning tasks where balanced performance is required rather than extremes of speed or hardness.

Practical applications and setup recommendations

For best results in external and internal turning, pair the insert with a suitable external holder or boring bar and select a chipbreaker and grade aligned to workpiece material, machining strategy and machine stability. The plate thickness of 6.35 mm and an insert size of 15 mm provide structural rigidity for moderate cutting forces. When repeatability and quick indexability are priorities, the DNGA format simplifies process planning and minimises downtime during insert changes.
