DNGN 150712 LX10 Wendeplatten - Tungaloy

Benefit from the combination of LX10 wear resistance, a stable corner radius 1.2 mm and the ISO‑compliant rhombic geometry for consistent turning performance; order the inserts directly via Metav Werkzeuge or request advice from our technical consultants.

DNGN 150712 LX10 — Tungaloy indexable turning insert, 55° approach

The DNGN150712 LX10 is an ISO‑standard rhombic indexable insert for external and internal turning, designed to provide reliable edge stability and broad workpiece coverage.

• ISO‑standard rhombic insert, 55° approach
• LX10 Tungaloy carbide grade for wear resistance
• Corner radius 1.2 mm for predictable chip control

Consistent tool life through a specialised cutting grade

The core advantage of the LX10 selection lies in its balance of wear resistance and toughness. The carbide substrate combined with the LX10 formulation delivers steady cutting-edge retention under typical turning loads, which translates into fewer index changes and more predictable cycle times. This targeted material choice supports applications where consistent dimensional results and reduced tool interventions matter, contributing to overall process efficiency and cost control.

Geometry and fitting that simplify machine setup

The rhombic form with a 55° approach angle and a 0° rake angle creates a flexible geometry for a wide range of turning tasks. The insert’s ISO designation ensures compatibility with holders when matching is performed by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness. With a plate thickness of 7.94 mm and a nominal size of 15 mm, the insert suits standardised external and internal turning fixtures and allows predictable cutting forces for stable machining.

Measurable machining benefits and practical application notes

A corner radius of 1.2 mm provides a compromise between edge strength and surface finish: it supports robust cutting with improved resistance to chipping while still enabling good surface quality on many steels and general-purpose materials. The insert is most effective when used with an appropriate chipbreaker and a matching clamping system; selecting the correct chip control geometry and cutting parameters will maximise tool life and surface integrity. For tailored recommendations, Metav Werkzeuge’s technical team can advise on grade and geometry combinations for specific turning tasks.

FAQ

What holders are compatible with this rhombic insert?
Compatibility depends on the holder geometry and clamping system; the DNGN150712 LX10 indexable insert fits ISO holders matched by form, clearance angle and size (SKU 6852068-Tungaloy).

Which materials are suitable for the LX10 grade?
The LX10 Tungaloy grade is formulated for broad workpiece coverage and performs well in general turning tasks where a balance of wear resistance and toughness is required; specific material recommendations depend on cutting conditions.

How does the 1.2 mm corner radius affect the machining result?
A 1.2 mm corner radius increases edge strength and reduces the risk of chipping while helping to achieve a consistent surface finish during turning operations with stable cutting parameters.

Is a chipbreaker included with this insert?
This insert is supplied without a chipbreaker; chip control should be selected according to workpiece material and the intended cutting strategy.

What does the ISO designation 150712 indicate?
The ISO code 150712 summarises the geometry and dimensions of the insert family, helping to ensure correct selection of matching holders and clamping components for standardised turning applications.
