DCGT070204 SH7025 indexable turning insert, rhombic 55° — Tungaloy

A DCGT070204 SH7025 indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a robust coated carbide grade for variable engagement conditions and tool-change flexibility.

• SH7025 coated carbide for stable cutting
• Rhombic 55° geometry for versatile turning
• 0.4 mm nose radius for precise finishes
• Cylindrical hole with countersink for secure clamping

Engineered grade for consistent cutting performance

The selected SH7025 is a coated carbide grade formulated for toughness and stable cutting edge behaviour, particularly effective where smaller tools or fluctuating engagement occur. The coating enhances wear resistance while the substrate maintains impact strength, which together support longer tool life and repeatable results. This combination reduces downtime from insert changes and helps to stabilise part quality in mixed-production environments.

Geometry that balances versatility and finish quality

The rhombic geometry with a 55° approach angle and a 0.4 mm nose radius delivers a compromise between chip control and surface finish. The compact nose radius is suited to fine turning and light finishing passes, while the 55° form provides accessibility for both external profiles and moderate internal contours. These geometric choices make the insert a reliable option when a balance of precision and general-purpose capability is required.

ISO conformity and secure clamping for process safety

Manufactured as an ISO-compliant plate, compatibility with the toolholder depends on form, 7° clearance, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The insert features a cylindrical hole with a single-sided 40°–60° countersink, enabling secure seating and consistent clamping forces in approved holders. The plate thickness of 2.38 mm and size designation 07 are important for ensuring the correct seat and minimising vibration during interrupted cuts.

Practical system setup and selection guidance

The insert functions as part of a complete turning system that typically comprises the indexable plate, a matching external holder or boring bar, a shim/clamping set and replacement screws. Selecting the appropriate chipbreaker and feed/speed combination according to the workpiece and machining stability is essential for optimised performance. For operations with changing engagement, favour grades and chip control geometries that prioritise edge resilience over sheer hardness to avoid premature edge breakdown.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The SH7025 grade insert is designed for general turning tasks; selection of a suitable chipbreaker and cutting parameters should be based on the specific workpiece material and machining stability for optimal results.

How is compatibility with a holder determined?
Compatibility depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; verify that the holder matches the insert's ISO profile and the 2.38 mm plate thickness.

What does the SH7025 designation signify?
SH7025 denotes a coated carbide grade focused on toughness and edge stability; this grade is chosen to deliver reliable performance under variable engagement and smaller-tool applications.

What clamping features does the insert have?
The plate is supplied with a cylindrical hole and a single-sided 40°–60° countersink, enabling secure clamping and repeatable seating in compatible toolholders.
