TPGT 070104 SH730 Tungaloy – ISO triangular turning insert, coated carbide, 11° relief

TPGT070104 SH730 is an ISO‑standard triangular indexable insert for general turning applications, designed for stable edge performance in changing cut conditions.

• ISO triangular insert, size 07
• Coated carbide grade SH730
• 11° relief angle, 0.4 mm radius
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

High‑performance turning with consistent component quality

The combination of a coated carbide substrate and the SH730 grade delivers predictable cutting behaviour under varied engagement conditions. The insert’s 11° relief angle reduces rubbing and heat generation at the cutting edge, which helps to prolong tool life and maintain surface finish. For workshop planners this means fewer insert changes and steadier cycle times; the geometry supports both outer and inner turning operations when paired with the correct ISO holder. A brief explanation: a relief angle is the clearance behind the cutting edge that prevents unwanted contact with the workpiece, improving cutting efficiency and reducing thermal loads.

Durable substrate and chip control for demanding conditions

Manufactured from carbide, this triangular insert benefits from a robust substrate suited to interrupted cuts and variable feeds. The one‑sided chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation, aiding evacuation and reducing the risk of built‑up edge in many steels and alloy materials. The modest 0.4 mm corner radius balances edge strength with the ability to produce fine radiused profiles; a smaller radius often improves surface finish but reduces shock resistance, which is why SH730’s toughness is advantageous for smaller tools or fluctuating engagement. In plain terms: the grade is chosen to resist chipping while keeping a reliable cutting edge.

Workshop compatibility and straightforward handling

The insert conforms to ISO dimensions and is supplied with a cylindrical hole and a one‑sided countersink (40°–60°) to ensure secure clamping in compatible toolholders. The 1.59 mm thickness and size 07 designation correspond to widely adopted holders, simplifying stock management for production or maintenance departments. For those specifying tools, note the article and manufacturer SKUs to check holder fit: the insert is referenced under the manufacturer’s article number and the supplier SKU for accurate ordering. If uncertain about holder compatibility or recommended cutting data, technical teams can provide machining parameters to match material and cycle requirements.

Practical benefit in process planning

Selecting an ISO‑standard insert such as this one reduces qualification time when switching suppliers or standardising tool stores, because a common shape, hole style and tolerance class allow for interchangeability. The coated carbide SH730 reduces downtime caused by edge failure and supports productive turning in batch or single‑part production. For procurement and process engineers, the key advantage is reliable repeatability: consistent insert geometry leads to steady part quality and predictable tool consumption.

FAQ

What materials can this insert handle?
The TPGT070104 SH730 insert is a coated carbide grade engineered for a broad range of turning tasks; the SH730 sort is particularly suited to situations requiring edge toughness, making it appropriate for many steels and mixed engagement conditions.

How does the 0.4 mm corner radius affect part finish?
A 0.4 mm corner radius provides a compromise between edge strength and surface quality; it helps to produce a consistent radiused profile while offering improved resistance to chipping compared with very small radii when using the SH730 grade.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
The insert follows ISO dimensions and features a cylindrical hole with a countersink, which allows secure clamping in compatible ISO toolholders; confirm holder form, clearance angle and tolerance class to ensure perfect fit.

How should the one‑sided chipbreaker be used?
The one‑sided chipbreaker aids controlled chip formation for turning operations; select feed and depth of cut to match the chipformer design and material to achieve effective evacuation and to avoid chip entanglement.

What are the ordering references for stock management?
Use the manufacturer article number 6862188 and the supplier SKU 6862188-Tungaloy or Manufacturer SKU TUN6862188 when placing orders to ensure the correct grade and geometry are supplied.
