What materials is the VCMT160402-PS NS9530 suitable for?

The NS9530 cermet grade is intended primarily for finishing operations in steel; it provides a sharp cutting edge, low cutting forces and high surface quality for continuous cuts and small depths of cut.

What are the key geometry features of this insert?

The insert is a rhombic VCMT shape, ISO 160402, with a 0.2 mm corner radius, 4.76 mm thickness, 16 mm size and a 7° relief angle; it also has a cylindrical hole with a single‑side countersink (40°–60°).

Which chipbreaker does this insert use and what is its purpose?

This insert uses the PS chipbreaker, which is designed to produce controlled chips and stable cutting when finishing steel under continuous feed conditions.

Data inconsistency detected: the provided specifications describe the same item alternatively as a cemented carbide tool and as an uncoated cermet grade (NS9530). These two material classes have different cutting behaviour, recommended cutting parameters and intended applications; cemented carbide and cermet are not interchangeable descriptions. Because of this contradiction, a reliable, production-ready product description cannot be generated without clarification. Please confirm whether the insert is a cemented carbide or an uncoated cermet (NS9530) and verify any related material-dependent fields (for example grade/coating and material family). Once the material specification is confirmed, a full technical and marketing text can be produced that accurately reflects geometry, chipbreaker, ISO designation and application recommendations. If further data verification is needed, please supply the corrected information or contact Metav Werkzeuge for assistance.
