EPGT 040104 SH7025 turning insert (ISO 040104) by Tungaloy — rhombic 75°, with hole

The EPGT 040104 SH7025 is an ISO‑standard rhombic turning insert designed for external and internal turning, offering stable chip control and consistent edge performance for small tools and variable engagement conditions.

• Coated carbide grade SH7025
• Rhombic insert, 75° included angle
• Single-sided chipbreaker for stable chips
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

Increase process reliability with a tough, edge-stable grade

The combination of coated carbide construction and the SH7025 grade delivers a balance of toughness and wear resistance that reduces unexpected edge chipping during interrupted cuts or variable engagement. By using a rhombic 75° geometry the insert provides a favourable approach angle that supports stable cutting forces and a consistent surface finish. The corner radius 0.4 mm contributes to predictable tool life and repeatable results when tools are changed, helping to reduce setup variance and minimise unplanned downtime.

Simple integration into ISO tool systems for fast changeover

Designed to ISO dimensions, the insert fits standard clamping systems where compatibility is defined by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fixation, size and thickness. The cylindrical hole with single‑side countersink (40°–60°) ensures secure seating and repeatable orientation in a matched holder, while the 1.59 mm thickness and rhombic 04 size permit compact toolholder designs. Clear system assembly—insert, matching external holder or boring bar, shim/clamp set and replacement screws—means quick changeovers and minimal machine downtime.

Reliable chip control and versatility for mixed tasks

The single-sided chipbreaker is optimised for turning applications and supports controlled chip formation across a range of engagement conditions. The SH7025 grade is formulated to remain edge‑stable under varying loads, which is particularly advantageous for smaller cutting tools or operations with fluctuating depth of cut. These characteristics translate into fewer interruptions, improved surface integrity and a lower total cost per component in short‑run and mixed‑batch production scenarios.
