TNGG 160408 NS9530 TNGG insert for turning — triangular cermet, 60° (Tungaloy)

TNGG160408 is a triangular indexable insert optimised for finishing in turning applications within a multidirectional system.

• Uncoated cermet NS9530 for fine finishing
• Triangular insert, 60° included angle
• Double-sided chipbreaker for continuous cuts
• Cylindrical hole and 0.8 mm corner radius

High-quality finishing for steel workpieces

The uncoated NS9530 grade is a cermet formulated specifically as a finishing grade for steel, delivering a sharp cutting edge and low cutting forces that translate into superior surface finish and reduced tendency for built-up edge. In practice, this means the insert excels during small depths of cut and continuous cutting operations typical in finishing passes, where stability and repeatability are paramount. The result is fewer reworks and a consistently higher-quality component surface.

Geometry tuned for multidirectional turning systems

Designed for the AddMultiTurn model series, the insert's triangular shape and 60° included angle enable versatile positioning for longitudinal, facing and profiling operations within a multidirectional turning system. The double-sided chipbreaker supports continuous cutting directions, while the cylindrical hole ensures reliable clamping in changers and holders. Together, these geometric features reduce tool change frequency and enable flexible process layouts on modern lathes.

Operational benefits: efficiency and process stability

With a corner radius of 0.8 mm, the insert balances edge strength and fine surface generation, helping to lower vibration and improve dimensional control during finish passes. The cermet substrate provides a stable edge for repeatable cutting, which can lead to shorter cycle times when combined with optimised feed and speed settings. For production environments that value consistent part quality, this combination supports high process reliability and predictable performance over extended runs.

Simple integration and practical handling

The insert is supplied in the ISO designation TNGG160408, compatible with standard triangular holders and clamping systems used in multidirectional turning setups. Plate thickness and form deliver straightforward mounting and indexing for efficient use in indexable tooling systems.
