SNGN120716 LX10 indexable turning insert — 90° geometry, 1.6 mm radius — Tungaloy

The SNGN120716 LX10 is an ISO-standard indexable insert designed for turning, intended for both external and internal machining where predictable cutting behaviour and edge stability are required.

• ISO SNGN geometry for wide holder compatibility
• LX10 grade: balanced wear resistance and toughness
• 90° cutting edge for versatile external/internal turning
• Carbide construction for stable cutting performance

Predictable assembly and holder compatibility for rapid tool changes

The insert is built to the ISO SNGN form, which ensures consistent fitment with compatible clamping systems and external holders. The combination of the square plate form and a defined 90° cutting edge simplifies set-up, while the 1.6 mm corner radius provides a clear reference for cutting engagement and edge strength. This predictable interface reduces downtime during insert changes and helps maintain repeatable part geometry across batches.

Balanced wear resistance and edge stability with the LX10 grade

Tungaloy's LX10 grade blends wear resistance and toughness to maintain a durable cutting edge under mixed cutting conditions. As a carbide composition selected for turning, the grade reduces flank wear and supports longer tool life in interrupted cuts and steady finished passes. The material selection provides a reliable compromise between abrasion resistance and chipping resistance, leading to consistent surface finishes and fewer unexpected tool changes.

Flexible use in external and internal turning without an integrated chipbreaker

Designed for general turning tasks, the plate is supplied without a chipbreaker, allowing the geometry to be matched to the workpiece, cutting parameters and set-up rigidity. Compatibility with appropriate holders, shims and clamping kits is determined by form, clearance angle and plate thickness, so the insert integrates into existing tool systems where customised chip control solutions are preferred. The absence of a preset chipbreaker supports tailored chip management strategies for different materials and operations.

Robust performance for repeatable machining and process security

The compact plate thickness and square shape deliver stable cutting conditions when combined with a suitable external holder and correct clamping. This results in reduced vibration, improved edge life and stable results across production runs. Where process reliability and predictable wear patterns are priorities, the combination of ISO geometry and the LX10 grade supports efficient production and straightforward inventory handling for indexable inserts.

FAQ

What machining tasks is this insert intended for?
The SNGN120716 LX10 insert is designed for turning operations, suitable for both external and internal turning when combined with the correct holder and clamping components.

Does the insert include a chipbreaker?
No, the insert is supplied without a chipbreaker; chip control should be achieved via holder selection, cutting parameters or by choosing an insert with an appropriate chipbreaker for the application.

Which holder types are compatible with this insert?
Compatibility depends on the ISO SNGN form, clearance angle, tolerance class and plate thickness; the insert fits standard holders designed for SNGN 120716 geometry.

What are the key benefits of the LX10 grade?
The LX10 grade from Tungaloy offers a balance of wear resistance and toughness, promoting longer edge life and consistent surface quality in varied turning conditions.

Can this insert be used for heavy interrupted cuts?
The carbide composition and 1.6 mm corner radius provide edge strength suitable for many interrupted cutting scenarios, though final suitability depends on machining parameters and set-up rigidity.
