EPGT 040101 TH10 — Indexable turning insert for turning by Tungaloy

The EPGT040101 TH10 is an ISO rhombic indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, providing a sharp uncoated carbide cutting edge optimised for non‑ferrous materials.

• ISO rhombic insert EPGT040101 TH10
• Uncoated carbide for low cutting forces
• Suitable for non‑ferrous materials and finishing
• Cylindrical hole with single‑side countersink

Consistent, low‑force cutting for cleaner surfaces

The rhombic geometry with a 75° included angle and the fine 0.1 mm corner radius deliver precise engagement and reduced radial forces, which helps to preserve workpiece integrity when machining softer alloys. The TH10 uncoated carbide grade supports a clean surface finish and lower friction at the cutting edge, making it advantageous for operations where minimal cutting forces and good surface quality are priorities. This combination reduces vibration risk and promotes steady tool life in finishing passes.

Secure clamping and broad holder compatibility

As an ISO‑standard insert, compatibility depends on the insert form, 11° clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The central cylindrical hole with a single‑side countersink (40°–60°) ensures reliable seating and repeatable clamping in compatible external holders and boring bars. Clear mechanical fitment reduces set‑up time and improves repeatability across batches, enabling reliable interchangeability between holders manufactured to ISO norms.

Process efficiency and system considerations

This insert integrates into a system comprising the ISO indexable insert, a matched external holder or boring bar, a support pad/clamp set and replacement screws. The 1.59 mm plate thickness and single‑sided chipbreaker suit light to medium cutting regimes, while the uncoated cutting edge excels where minimal built‑up edge formation is required. Select the chipbreaker and grade to match material, machining stability and desired surface finish; the right pairing improves throughput and lowers overall machining cost per part.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The EPGT040101 TH10 insert is optimised for non‑ferrous materials and applications where an uncoated carbide edge supports low cutting forces and a clean surface finish.

How does the insert secure in the holder?
Clamping relies on the central cylindrical hole with a single‑side countersink; when used in an ISO‑compatible holder, the seating and fastening deliver repeatable clamping and stable cutting.

Which geometry details affect performance?
The rhombic 75° included angle, 0.1 mm corner radius and 11° clearance angle work together to reduce radial load, improve surface finish and limit edge loading during finishing operations.

Can this insert be used for both external and internal turning?
Yes, the insert is suitable for both external and internal turning when paired with the appropriate external holder or boring bar and the correct clamp/support components.
