TCGT080202 SH7025 — ISO turning indexable insert for turning, triangular 60° geometry, coated carbide by Tungaloy

A TCGT080202 SH7025 triangular ISO turning insert designed for external and internal turning where a tough, edge-stable grade is required, especially in smaller tools or when engagement conditions vary

• Coated carbide for improved wear resistance
• Tough SH7025 grade with stable cutting edge
• 7° clearance for reliable chip control
• Triangular 60° insert, 0.2 mm corner radius

Consistent cutting performance with economic advantage

The ISO-design insert delivers a predictable balance between tool life and productivity. As an indexable turning plate, it provides repeatable seating and fast index changes that reduce downtime and maintain process stability. The SH7025 coated carbide composition is formulated for edge stability, which reduces flank wear under fluctuating engagement and helps to maintain dimensional accuracy over multiple indexings. Compatibility with standard holders is defined by shape, clearance, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness, enabling straightforward integration into established tool systems and contributing to a lower total cost of machining.

Precision geometry for controlled finishing and chip formation

Geometry and micro-parameters are central to surface quality and process reliability. The triangular 60° geometry combined with a 0.2 mm corner radius supports fine finishing passes and small-step roughing, while the 7° clearance reduces rubbing and helps preserve the cutting edge. The single-sided chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation in many turning situations, improving surface finish and reducing the risk of entanglement. These design choices translate directly into fewer reworks and more consistent part quality on both external and internal turning operations.

Secure clamping and rigid plate design for stable results

Integration into the tool system is straightforward: the insert is supplied with hole featuring a cylindrical bore and a one-sided countersink (40°–60°), ensuring positive clamping and repeatable seating in compatible holders or boring bars. The plate thickness of 2.38 mm contributes to rigidity during interrupted cuts and when using short overhangs, while the standardised ISO form allows the use of common underplates, clamp kits and replacement screws. For workshops aiming for predictable machining cycles, this mechanical stability is a decisive factor in maintaining cycle times and part tolerances.

Versatile use in variable turning conditions

Designed for turning applications where conditions can change—such as batch production with mixed geometries or toolpaths that alternate engagement—the insert’s combination of coated carbide toughness and ISO compatibility makes it suitable for a wide range of turning tasks. Selection of the appropriate chipbreaker and grade should be matched to the workpiece material and the required stability of the setup. The insert’s construction supports both small-tool installations and operations where repeated indexing is needed, offering a reliable compromise between performance and flexibility.

FAQ

What type of turning is this insert designed for?
The TCGT080202 SH7025 insert is intended for both external and internal turning operations where a tough, edge-stable coated carbide grade is advantageous.

Which materials are appropriate for this grade?
The SH7025 grade is a tough, edge-stable coated carbide developed for turning; it is particularly effective where engagement conditions vary or where smaller tools are used, offering good resistance to edge chipping.

How does the hole and countersink benefit clamping?
The cylindrical hole with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) provides positive, repeatable clamping in compatible holders, improving seating accuracy and minimising movement during interrupted cuts.

How should the chipbreaker be matched to an application?
Selection of the single-sided chipbreaker should be based on the workpiece material, the required surface finish and the stability of the machining setup; the chipbreaker promotes consistent chip formation for many turning scenarios.

Can the insert be indexed in standard ISO tool holders?
Yes, the insert follows ISO geometry conventions; compatibility depends on matching the insert form, clearance, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness to the holder.
