VPGT 110304 NS9530 indexable turning insert — uncoated cermet, 11° clearance — Tungaloy

VPGT 110304 NS9530 is an ISO‑standard rhombic indexable insert for turning, optimised for fine finishing of steel with a sharp cutting edge and low cutting forces

• ISO‑standard rhombic insert, 11° clearance
• Uncoated cermet grade NS9530 for fine finishing
• 0.4 mm corner radius for superior surface finish
• Cylindrical hole with single‑side countersink fastening

High‑quality finishes with low cutting forces

The NS9530 uncoated cermet is formulated for finishing of steel, delivering a sharp cutting edge that reduces cutting forces and improves surface quality. This behaviour is particularly beneficial during continuous cutting and when using small depths of cut, where micro‑vibration and workpiece deflection can otherwise spoil the finish. The small 0.4 mm corner radius helps to produce consistent surface roughness while maintaining edge stability. For production environments seeking predictable output, this configuration supports stable cycle times and repeatable part quality.

Predictable clamping and straightforward integration

Designed to the ISO indexable insert standard, compatibility with holders is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening type, size and thickness. The rhombic geometry and the cylindrical hole with single‑side countersink (40°–60°) ensure secure clamping and repeatable positioning in approved toolholders. Clearances such as the 11° relief angle reduce rubbing at the flank, extending the effective life of the cutting edge and simplifying set‑up across different turning applications. This predictability shortens set‑up time and reduces scrap from incorrect seating.

Better chip control and reliable cutting behaviour

The single‑sided chipbreaker design of this insert is matched to its finishing role: it promotes manageable chip flow under continuous cutting conditions and supports consistent cutting forces. Being an uncoated cermet grade, the insert provides a balance between wear resistance and a keen edge, which benefits surface integrity on steels. Where vibration is controlled and feeds are set for finishing, this insert helps maintain process stability and reduces the need for frequent edge changes, supporting higher productivity per insert.

Practical selection guidance for efficient turning

For finishing passes on steel with small depths of cut, select the matching holder geometry and ensure the assembly conforms to the ISO parameters of the insert for best results. Where higher stability is required, pair the insert with a rigid external holder and appropriate underlay or clamp set. The 3.18 mm thickness and size 11 designation give a compact profile suited to fine turning operations; the 35° included angle influences tool approach and should be considered when planning toolpaths. If in doubt about optimal feeds and speeds for a given setup, consult machining data specific to the workpiece and machine to avoid overloading the thin cutting edge.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert best suited for?
This insert, VPGT 110304 NS9530 from Tungaloy, is optimised for finishing steel where a sharp edge and low cutting forces produce superior surface quality.

How does the NS9530 grade differ from coated carbide options?
The NS9530 uncoated cermet grade offers a keener cutting edge and reduced cutting forces compared with many coated carbides, making it especially suitable for continuous finishing passes and small depths of cut.

What fastening method is required for secure clamping?
The insert uses a cylindrical hole with a single‑side countersink (40°–60°); when mounted in an ISO‑compatible holder with the correct clamp and screw, it provides repeatable and secure seating.

Can this insert be used for roughing operations?
This design and grade are targeted at finishing; for heavy roughing, a different geometry and a tougher, often coated grade are typically recommended to withstand higher forces.

Which holder characteristics should be matched to the insert?
Match holder form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening type, size and plate thickness to the insert’s ISO geometry to ensure proper fit and reliable cutting performance.
