TNGG 160308 NS9530 TNGG160308 – Tungaloy indexable insert for Turning, uncoated cermet, 0.8 mm radius

TNGG160308 NS9530 Tungaloy indexable insert for finishing operations in external and internal turning, designed as a triangular ISO insert for precision steel machining.

• Uncoated cermet for fine finishing
• Sharp cutting edge with low cutting forces
• Double-sided design with cylindrical hole
• ISO-compliant triangular insert for turning

Superior finishing for steel components

The uncoated cermet grade NS9530 provides a sharp cutting edge and low-chip formation, which together produce a high surface finish in continuous cut conditions. As a finishing grade developed for steel, this insert reduces the need for secondary grinding or polishing by delivering consistent micro-geometry on the workpiece. The low cutting forces inherent to the grade also help to maintain machine stability during small depth-of-cut operations, lowering the risk of chatter and dimensional deviation.

Stable process and extended effective life

A double-sided chipbreaker and a robust triangular geometry yield two usable cutting edges per index, improving economy without compromising consistency. The combination of 0.8 mm corner radius and a precisely formed cutting edge supports repeatable component quality while keeping cutting forces modest. For finishing cycles and small feed rates the result is a predictable turn-around time and reduced scrap rates, contributing to overall process reliability and productivity on production lines.

Seamless integration into ISO tool systems

Designed as an ISO-compliant turning insert, the part fits standard holders when matched by form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The cylindrical hole ensures secure clamping, while the 3.18 mm plate thickness and 16 mm insert size suit a wide range of external and internal turning set-ups. With a nominal 60° cutting angle and 0° free angle, the geometry is optimised for finishing passes on shafts and bores where tight tolerances and excellent surface integrity are required.
