DCGT070202 SH725 ISO indexable turning insert — rhombic 55° by Tungaloy

DCGT070202 SH725 is an ISO‑standard indexable turning insert designed for external and internal turning applications and compatible with ISO holders when form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening and thickness match.

• Coated carbide grade SH725
• Rhombic 55° geometry, size 07
• 0.2 mm corner radius for precise finishes
• With hole and 40°–60° countersink
• Single-sided chipbreaker for controlled chips

Consistent cutting performance that reduces rework

The SH725 grade is a coated carbide engineered for edge stability and toughness, which maintains cutting integrity under varying engagement conditions. This results in fewer interrupted cuts and reduced scrap rates in serial production. The coating improves wear resistance and contributes to longer service intervals compared with uncoated grades, while the substrate composition supports thermal and mechanical loads typical of general turning operations. These material choices give a measurable effect on process reliability and more predictable tool change intervals.

Geometry and clamping that enhance stability and repeatability

The rhombic 55° geometry with a 0.2 mm corner radius and 2.38 mm thickness offers a balance between chip formation and edge strength; the included angle provides favourable cutting forces for a range of cross‑sections. The insert’s central hole with cylindrical bore and one‑sided countersink (40°–60°) ensures firm seating and repeatable orientation in compatible ISO holders, reducing vibration and runout. Together these mechanical attributes translate to improved surface finish and dimensional consistency on turned parts.

Controlled chips and adaptable cutting conditions

Equipped with a single‑sided chipbreaker, the insert supports stable chip control across varied materials and depths of cut, which simplifies swarf handling and machine protection. The grade’s toughness suits smaller toolholders and changing engagement conditions commonly encountered in mixed‑batch or jobbing environments. Selecting this geometry and chipbreaker combination can reduce downtime caused by clogged chipflows and helps maintain steady feed and speed recommendations from process plans.

Broad applicability and straightforward integration into workflows

As an ISO‑compliant indexable insert, the module integrates into established toolholding systems when holder specifications align with the insert form, clearance angle and tolerance class. The size 07 designation and rhombic profile are standard across many holders, easing inventory management for workshops. For engineering teams seeking a balance between productivity and process security, the combination of SH725 material behaviour and the insert’s mechanical design supports efficient turning of components with consistent results.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The DCGT070202 SH725 insert is a coated carbide grade designed for general turning tasks where edge stability and toughness are required; it performs well across a broad range of steels and mixed production conditions.

How does the 55° geometry affect cutting forces?
A 55° rhombic angle shifts cutting forces to a profile that is favourable for many turning operations, improving chip thinning and helping to achieve consistent surface quality with the specified corner radius.

Is the insert easy to seat in standard holders?
Yes. The insert’s ISO form, central hole and single‑sided countersink provide secure clamping in compatible ISO toolholders, promoting repeatable positioning and reduced runout.

What advantage does the single‑sided chipbreaker offer?
The single‑sided chipbreaker on this insert promotes predictable chip control across variable engagement conditions, which reduces swarf issues and improves process stability during turning.

Can this insert be used for internal turning as well as external turning?
The ISO rhombic form and chip control features make the insert suitable for both external and internal turning when matched with appropriate holders and operational parameters.
