TNGN160416 LX10 Tungaloy turning insert (triangular, 60°)

TNGN160416 LX10 is an ISO‑compliant triangular turning insert for external and internal turning applications, offering a neutral geometry for versatile machining.

• ISO‑compliant triangular insert
• Cemented carbide grade LX10
• 1.6 mm corner radius for edge strength
• Neutral 0° clearance for versatile turning

Reliable turning performance for productive machining

The triangular, ISO‑type insert is engineered to deliver consistent cutting behaviour during both external and internal turning. Manufactured from cemented carbide and specified in the LX10 grade, the insert combines wear resistance with adequate toughness to maintain a stable cutting edge under varying cutting conditions. The defined geometry and 60° included angle translate into predictable chip formation, reduced tool changes and improved process reliability in series production.

Practical advantages from geometry and grade selection

A 1.6 mm corner radius increases edge strength and contributes to improved surface finish when depth of cut and feed are selected accordingly. The neutral 0° clearance makes the insert well suited for a broad range of turning tasks where rigidity and reproducible cutting forces are required. The LX10 carbide chemistry balances abrasion resistance and fracture toughness; in practice this means longer intervals between indexings and less scrap from edge chipping, supporting efficient shopfloor operation.

System compatibility and handling guidance

Compatibility with clamping systems is determined by the insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The ISO‑style system requires a matching external holder or boring bar, a suitable shim or clamp set and replacement screws for secure mounting. The insert has no chipbreaker and no mounting hole; when integrating into a toolholder, select a holder geometry that ensures correct seat contact and clamping pressure to exploit the grade benefits and to preserve tool life.

FAQ

What operations is this insert designed for?
The TNGN160416 LX10 insert is designed for ISO‑compliant external and internal turning operations where a triangular insert with a 60° included angle is required.

How does the LX10 grade affect performance?
The LX10 grade provides a balance of wear resistance and toughness that prolongs edge life and helps maintain a stable cutting edge under a range of turning conditions.

What does the 1.6 mm corner radius mean in practice?
A 1.6 mm corner radius increases edge strength, improves surface finish potential and tolerates higher depths of cut compared with sharper radii, reducing the risk of edge chipping.

Is a chipbreaker included with this insert?
No, the insert is supplied without a chipbreaker; chip control must be managed by selecting the appropriate holder, cutting parameters and, if required, a different insert geometry for specific materials.

Which holders are compatible with this ISO insert?
Compatibility is determined by insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; use holders specified for triangular TNGN‑style ISO inserts and ensure correct shim and clamp selection.
