SPGN090316 LX10 SPGN — ISO turning insert, 1.6 mm radius, 11° relief — Tungaloy

SPGN090316 LX10 is an ISO‑standard, square turning insert designed for general external and internal turning operations, offering a balanced mix of wear resistance and edge stability for productive metalcutting.

• ISO‑compliant turning insert
• LX10 grade for wear resistance
• Square form with 1.6 mm radius
• 11° relief and 3.18 mm thickness

Stable productivity through matched grade and geometry

The combination of the LX10 cutting grade and a carbide body provides a robust foundation for repetitive turning tasks. The grade is chosen to balance wear resistance and toughness, reducing the frequency of insert changes and contributing to uninterrupted production cycles. With a 1.6 mm corner radius and 11° relief, the geometry supports reliable chip formation and a strong cutting edge, which helps to maintain dimensional consistency across serial components. This results in measurable process stability and fewer rejects in medium‑to‑high volume machining.

Clear compatibility and secure clamping for repeatable results

ISO conformity ensures predictable fitment in compatible toolholders; compatibility depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The square insert form and a thickness of 3.18 mm allow secure clamping in standard external holders or boring bars, while the absence of a chipbreaker simplifies selection for diverse workpiece materials. Using ISO‑matched holders and correct torque values keeps the insert seated reliably, which in turn preserves tool life and surface finish quality during turning operations.

Practical advantages when machining a wide material range

The carbide construction and the LX10 composition are intended to address a broad spectrum of steels and cast materials by combining edge stability with controlled wear. For interrupted cuts or unstable setups, the balanced toughness inherent to this grade reduces chipping risk; in stable setups it provides a predictable wear pattern for planning regrinds or replacements. The insert’s ISO designation and standardised geometry simplify inventory management and make it straightforward to match inserts to specific turning tasks in a mixed‑material production environment.

Workshop impact and process considerations

Adopting this ISO indexable plate supports lean tool management and efficient changeover. The square shape yields four usable corners per insert, improving cost efficiency per cutting edge. The 11° relief minimises rubbing on the clearance face, reducing heat build‑up and improving surface integrity. Selecting the correct holder, cutting parameters and feed per tooth relative to the 1.6 mm corner radius enables targeted removal rates while maintaining acceptable surface finish, so throughput gains are achieved without compromising part quality.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The SPGN090316 LX10 insert with its carbide substrate and LX10 grade is intended for turning a broad range of steels and related materials where a balance of wear resistance and toughness is required.

Can the insert be used for both external and internal turning?
Yes, the ISO‑standard geometry allows the insert to be employed in appropriate external holders and boring bars for both external and internal turning operations.

How many usable cutting edges does the square insert offer?
A square turning insert typically provides four usable corners; the SPGN090316 LX10 follows this standard, offering repeatable edge changes.

Is a chipbreaker included on this insert?
This insert is supplied without a chipbreaker, allowing selection of cutting conditions and holder types according to the specific material and process requirements.

What should be considered when choosing the holder?
Holder compatibility is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening and insert size; matching these factors to the SPGN090316 geometry ensures secure clamping and consistent machining behaviour.
