TNGG160408 GT9530 triangular indexable insert for turning (Tungaloy)

A TNGG160408 GT9530 triangular indexable insert engineered for multidirectional turning, offering stable finishing performance and straightforward integration into AddMultiTurn tool systems.

• Coated cermet grade GT9530
• Triangle form with 60° cutting angle
• Double-sided chipbreaker, cylindrical hole
• 0.8 mm corner radius for fine finish

Stable finishing through wear‑resistant material and geometry

The combination of a coated cermet grade and a triangular geometry delivers consistent surface quality in finishing and light universal turning. The GT9530 grade is formulated for wear resistance, which extends tool life under steady cutting conditions and reduces the frequency of insert changes. A 0.8 mm corner radius moderates cutting forces for improved surface integrity while the 60° angle supports fine profile definition. This technical balance is aimed at shops that prioritise predictable tool performance and reduced process interruptions.

Multidirectional capability for versatile turning operations

Designed for the AddMultiTurn multidirectional system, the insert supports longitudinal, facing and profile turning with a single tool set-up. The triangular form enables multiple indexable edges, and the double-sided chipbreaker provides reliable chip control across different feed directions. Use in a compatible holder and clamping system allows quick direction changes without compromising clamping stability, which simplifies tool inventory and shortens machine downtime for setup changes.

Robust design for secure clamping and practical handling

A plate thickness of 4.76 mm and the presence of a cylindrical hole ensure secure clamping in the holder and contribute to repeatable positioning during index changes. The insert’s 0° clearance angle denotes a neutral relief geometry suited to finishing cuts under stable support; the reversible, double-sided design helps to multiply usable cutting edges per insert. Integration into existing tool systems is straightforward thanks to standard ISO sizing and a compact triangular profile that balances rigidity with accessibility for accurate depth-of-cut control.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited to machine?
The TNGG160408 GT9530 insert from Tungaloy is a coated cermet grade designed primarily for machining steel in finishing and light universal applications where good surface finish and extended tool life are required.

Is the insert reversible and how does that affect cost efficiency?
Yes, the triangular, double-sided design provides multiple indexable edges; the reversible nature increases usable cutting edges per insert, improving overall cost efficiency for batch and serial production.

Can this insert be used in multidirectional tool systems?
The insert is intended for the AddMultiTurn multidirectional turning system and is compatible with holders that accept the TNGG160408 form, enabling longitudinal, facing and profiling with a single tool set-up.

What significance does the 0.8 mm corner radius have for surface finish?
A 0.8 mm corner radius helps to moderate cutting forces and supports improved surface quality during finishing passes, reducing the likelihood of edge chipping under stable cutting conditions.

Which identifier should be referenced when ordering the insert?
Reference the article number 6997779 or the manufacturer SKU TUN6997779 when specifying the TNGG160408 GT9530 indexable insert.
