TNMG 160402 NS9530 Tungaloy Turning Insert — uncoated cermet, 0° clearance

TNMG160402 NS9530 Tungaloy turning insert for ISO-standard external and internal turning, optimised for finishing steel components

• ISO triangular TNMG 160402 format
• Uncoated cermet grade NS9530 for finishing
• Sharp cutting edge with low cutting forces
• Double-sided chipbreaker, cylindrical hole

High-quality finishing with reduced cutting forces

The NS9530 grade is an uncoated cermet designed specifically as a finishing grade for steel, delivering a consistently improved surface finish with lower cutting loads. The combination of a sharp cutting edge and the small 0.2 mm corner radius helps to produce fine surfaces on continuous cuts and small depths of cut, reducing the need for secondary finishing. The material choice and geometry favour precision operations, resulting in predictable tool life and fewer interruptions in a production cycle.

Reliable ISO compatibility for easy integration

Built to the ISO profile, this triangular insert matches common clamping and holder systems when the form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness correspond. The neutral 0° clearance and the 60° included angle are important positioning parameters that define tool contact and chip flow; the ISO designation simplifies procurement and inventory management for workshops running standard tooling systems. Guidance on holder compatibility facilitates fast integration into existing setups without trial-and-error adjustments.

Practical design for cost-effective turning

The insert is manufactured on a carbide substrate with a double-sided chipbreaker and a cylindrical hole, enabling multiple indexing positions and stable clamping. The 4.76 mm thickness and 16 mm inscribed circle combine stiffness with accessibility in tight bores. For turning operations where continuous cuts and fine feedrates are predominant, this geometry reduces cutting forces and helps maintain dimensional accuracy. Selecting the correct chipbreaker and the NS9530 grade tailors performance to workpiece stability and desired surface quality.

FAQ

Which workpiece materials is this insert best suited for?
The NS9530-grade insert is optimised for finishing steel; the TNMG160402 geometry performs well on continuous cuts and small depths of cut to achieve high surface quality.

How does the 0.2 mm corner radius affect the result?
A 0.2 mm corner radius delivers a fine surface and reduced cutting vibration for finishing operations, while limiting the insert’s suitability for heavy interrupted cuts.

Can the insert be indexed to use multiple edges?
Yes. The double-sided chipbreaker and triangular form allow multiple indexing positions, supporting cost-effective edge changes and stable clamping during turning.

What holder factors determine compatibility with this insert?
Compatibility depends on the insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; these parameters ensure correct seating and secure clamping for the TNMG160402 geometry.

When should the NS9530 grade be chosen over other grades?
Select NS9530 for finishing applications where a sharp cutting edge, low cutting forces and excellent surface finish on steel are priorities; different grades or chipbreakers should be chosen for roughing, alloys or unstable setups.
