DCGT 11T302 SH725 Tungaloy turning insert — coated carbide, 55° rhombic for turning

The DCGT11T302 SH725 Tungaloy insert is an ISO‑specified rhombic turning insert designed for external and internal turning; compatibility with toolholders depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fixation, size and thickness

• ISO‑normed rhombic insert, 55° included angle
• Coated carbide grade SH725
• 0.2 mm corner radius for fine finishing
• Cylindrical hole with one‑sided countersink

Consistent edge stability for variable engagement

The SH725 grade is a coated carbide designed for turning where edge robustness and resistance to chipping are paramount. This composition is especially suitable for smaller tools or processes with changing engagement conditions, as the material maintains a stable cutting edge under fluctuating chip loads. The practical benefit is a reduced frequency of insert changes and a more predictable tool life, which leads to higher uptime and lower process variation in production runs.

ISO compatibility reduces setup time and uncertainty

Built to the ISO model series for turning inserts, the DCGT11T302 geometry provides a standardised interface that eases selection and replacement. The rhombic shape with a 55° included angle and a 7° relief angle is matched to widely available holders; form, clearance and tolerances determine compatibility. Using ISO‑compliant inserts ensures that holders, underplates and clamping sets fit reliably, so machine set‑up is faster and tool inventory becomes easier to manage.

Dimensional precision that supports surface quality

Key dimensions are engineered for precision: an inscribed circle of 11 mm, a plate thickness of 3.97 mm, and a corner radius of 0.2 mm. The insert features a cylindrical hole with a one‑sided countersink (40°–60°) and a single‑sided chipbreaker to control chip flow. These attributes translate into predictable cutting forces and a capability for finer surface finishes where small radii and thin cross‑sections are required, helping to reduce secondary operations and rework.

Application guidance and selection logic

The indexable plate is intended for both external and internal turning; selection of the chipbreaker and the SH725 grade should be aligned with workpiece material, machining type and machine/tool stability. For interrupted cuts or variable depths of cut, the tougher grade provides better resistance to edge damage. For long, continuous cuts where micro‑finish is critical, the small corner radius supports improved surface integrity. Where required, consult Metav Werkzeuge for recommendations on pairing the insert with suitable holders and clamping components.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The insert in grade SH725 is a coated carbide designed for general turning; selection should match the workpiece material and machining conditions to ensure optimal performance.

How does the chipbreaker affect machining?
A single‑sided chipbreaker on the DCGT11T302 controls chip flow and reduces the risk of entanglement, supporting stable cutting and improved surface finish during turning operations.

Which holders are compatible with this insert?
Compatibility is determined by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fixation, size and thickness; holders designed for ISO rhombic inserts with a 55° included angle will typically be suitable.

What does the 0.2 mm corner radius mean for finishing?
A 0.2 mm corner radius enables finer surface finishes and reduced cutting forces on thin sections, making it suitable for finishing passes and delicate features.
