TPGN 110308 LX10 triangular ISO turning insert, 60° included angle — Tungaloy

The TPGN110308 LX10 is an ISO‑standard indexable turning insert designed for external and internal turning applications, offering a compact 11 mm size and robust carbide construction for stable cutting performance.

• ISO‑standard triangular insert, 60° included angle
• Tungaloy LX10 carbide grade for wear resistance
• 11 mm size with 0.8 mm corner radius
• Compatible with standard ISO turning holders

ISO geometry for reliable interchangeability and predictable results

The triangular ISO form with a 60° included angle ensures straightforward interchangeability across widely used toolholders. The insert’s geometry, combined with its specified relief or free angle (11°), defines how it sits in the holder and how the cutting edge engages the workpiece. Because compatibility depends on form, free angle, tolerance class, clamping and thickness, manufacturers and toolroom managers benefit from reduced setup variability and faster insert changes. This leads to steadier process control and shorter machine downtime for series production.

LX10 carbide grade for extended tool life under real conditions

The LX10 grade brings a tailored balance of wear resistance and edge toughness, minimising flank wear while retaining sufficient fracture resistance for mixed turning tasks. Such a composition supports longer uninterrupted runs and fewer indexings compared with generic grades, improving overall productivity. For shops seeking consistent surface quality and predictable insert life, this grade contributes to lower tooling costs per component and more stable batch output.

Precision dimensions that simplify integration into existing systems

Key dimensions — corner radius 0.8 mm, thickness 3.18 mm, and insert size 11 mm — make the part easy to match with standard ISO turning holders and clamping kits. The insert is supplied without a hole and without an integrated chipbreaker, so the clamping relies on the holder’s seating, shim or clamp set and screw selection. The compact design reduces overhang and vibration potential when paired with an adequately rigid holder, yielding improved repeatability and surface finish in both roughing and finishing cuts.

Process advice for broad material coverage and application flexibility

Intended for turning, this insert works well when the cutting grade and chip control are chosen to suit the workpiece and machining conditions. The absence of a chipbreaker on the insert itself means chip control must be achieved by choosing the appropriate holder geometry or an alternative insert variant with a matching breaker. For general turning tasks, the LX10 grade and the insert’s geometry support a wide range of steels and cast irons; selecting the correct cutting data and stability level will optimise tool life and part quality.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The LX10 grade insert is designed for general turning and covers a broad range of steels and cast irons when cutting data and stability are adapted; the grade supports both wear resistance and edge stability in mixed applications.

How does the absence of a chipbreaker affect machining?
With no chipbreaker on the insert, chip control must be achieved through holder selection or by using a matched insert variant with a chipbreaker; the TPGN110308 is therefore best used where holder geometry or external chip control is available.

How to ensure correct compatibility with existing holders?
Compatibility is determined by the insert form, free angle (11°), tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness — checking these parameters against the holder specification ensures proper seating and secure clamping.

What benefits does the LX10 grade provide in production?
The LX10 carbide grade offers a balance of wear resistance and toughness, giving longer tool life and steadier surface finish results for many turning operations, which helps reduce tool change frequency.

Is this insert suitable for finishing as well as roughing?
Yes; with a 0.8 mm corner radius and the appropriate cutting data, the insert can be used for both roughing and finishing, provided machine-tool rigidity and holder stability are adequate.
