EPGT 040100 SH7025 Wendeplatten - Tungaloy

Taking advantage of the SH7025 coating and ISO conformity, this insert delivers robust cutting-edge stability and consistent performance in both external and internal turning operations; it is particularly economical where smaller tooling or variable engagement conditions are present. Order the insert directly via Metav Werkzeuge or ask the consultants for compatibility guidance.

EPGT040100 SH7025 Turning insert for ISO turning — Tungaloy

The EPGT040100 SH7025 is an ISO‑standard rhombic turning insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a tough, edge‑stable grade for small tools and changing engagement conditions.

• ISO rhombic insert format 04
• Coated carbide grade SH7025
• Cylindrical hole with single‑side countersink
• 11° relief angle for general turning

Proven grade for variable engagement and small tools

The SH7025 grade is a coated carbide developed for toughness and cutting‑edge stability, which reduces edge chipping under changing conditions. For operations that involve interrupted cuts or varying engagement, a tougher grade helps maintain a consistent tool life and reduces unplanned tool changes, improving uptime and process reliability. The coating enhances wear resistance while the substrate maintains fracture toughness; this balance supports productive turning even with smaller insert geometries. The result is a combination of reliability and cost efficiency in batch and job‑shop environments where tool change downtime is critical.

Easy integration in ISO tooling systems for predictable results

Designed to the ISO designation 040100, the insert integrates with standard holders when matched for shape, clearance angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness. The rhombic form with a nominal 75° included angle and 11° relief ensures predictable geometry for typical external and internal turning tasks. The central cylindrical hole with single‑side countersink (40°–60°) secures stable clamping and repeatable seating on compatible toolholders. By choosing the correct chipbreaker and matching the grade to the workpiece and machining stability, machinists can achieve consistent chip control and surface finish while keeping set‑up straightforward.

Operational benefits, selection guidance and handling notes

In practice, the insert provides improved process stability through a robust cutting edge and a one‑sided chipbreaker suited to many turning conditions. The nominal thickness of 1.59 mm and size designation 04 make it suitable for compact tool assemblies where rigidity is limited; selecting a holder that maximises support will extend tool life. For best results, pair the insert with a holder rated for the workpiece material and machining strategy, and prefer clamping systems that minimise micro‑movement. The EPGT040100 SH7025 insert balances wear resistance and toughness, enabling productive machining with fewer interruptions and more predictable tool economics.

FAQ

What turning operations is this insert suitable for?
The EPGT040100 SH7025 Tungaloy insert (TUN6967500) is designed for both external and internal turning; it performs well in interrupted cuts and variable engagement scenarios when combined with an appropriate chipbreaker and rigid holder.

How does the SH7025 grade affect performance?
SH7025 is a tough, edge‑stable coated carbide grade that offers improved resistance to chipping and a durable cutting edge, helping to maintain productivity in changing cutting conditions with the EPGT040100 insert.

Which holders are compatible with this ISO insert?
Compatibility depends on matching the holder to the insert’s rhombic form, 11° relief, size 04 and thickness 1.59 mm, as well as the clamping arrangement; confirm fit by comparing shape, tolerance class and attachment method.

Is the insert suitable for small‑tool assemblies?
Yes; the geometry and tougher grade make it particularly suitable for smaller tooling where engagement conditions vary, provided that the chosen holder maximises support and rigidity.

What chipbreaker should be selected?
Select a chipbreaker that matches the workpiece material and machining stability; the insert features a one‑sided chipbreaker and will benefit from a chipbreaker optimised for the intended material and feed range.
