TNGG 160402 NS9530 — Indexable turning insert for turning by Tungaloy, triangular, 60° included angle

The TNGG160402 NS9530 is an ISO-standard triangular indexable insert designed for finishing turns on steels; uncoated cermet grade for continuous cuts and small depth of cut.

• Uncoated cermet NS9530 for fine finishing
• Sharp cutting edge for low cutting forces
• ISO triangular insert, 60° included angle
• Double-sided with cylindrical mounting hole

High-precision finishing for steel turning

The insert is based on an uncoated cermet NS9530 grade that has been developed for finishing applications on steel. The sharp cutting edge and low built-up edge tendency lead to consistently improved surface finish, particularly in continuous cutting conditions and when using small depth-of-cut strategies. As a finishing-grade solution, the substrate and edge form provide reduced cutting forces and lower vibration sensitivity, which supports repeatable part quality and less rework.

Clear ISO compatibility and quick replacement

The insert follows ISO geometries and is defined by shape, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; these determine compatibility with standard toolholders. The triangular form with a 16 mm inscribed circle and 60° included angle, combined with a cylindrical centre hole and a 4.76 mm plate thickness, enables simple mounting and secure clamping in appropriately specified holders. The 0.2 mm corner radius supports fine-detail finishes while the double-sided design extends tool life and reduces inventory pressure.

Productivity and process reliability in turning

Using a finishing cermet insert reduces the need for secondary finishing and helps maintain cycle-time targets. The double-sided geometry and robust edge stability provide cost efficiency through multiple reindexings, while the dedicated chipbreaker supports reliable chip control during stable cutting. For external and internal turning operations where surface integrity matters, the combination of cermet edge quality and ISO-standard dimensions helps minimise tool-change downtime and contributes to predictable process output.

Selecting the right grade and handling notes

Cermet finishing grades deliver high wear resistance and a fine cutting edge; however, they perform best in continuous cuts and steady feed conditions. The NS9530 grade is optimised for steel finishing — operators should prefer a holder and machining setup that ensure stable cutting conditions. Compatibility checks for holder form, clamping screw and tolerance class are essential before first use. Where interrupted cuts or unstable setups occur, consider alternative grades or toolpaths adapted to the application to protect the edge integrity.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert intended for?
The TNGG160402 NS9530 insert is formulated as a finishing grade for steel and is optimised for continuous turning operations on steel components.

Is the insert reversible or single-sided?
The insert is double-sided, allowing reindexing to a fresh edge and extending service life before disposal.

What are the key dimensional values to check for holder compatibility?
Check the triangular shape (16 mm inscribed circle), plate thickness (4.76 mm), centre-hole style (cylindrical) and the 60° included angle to ensure correct fit in ISO-compatible holders.

What cutting conditions suit the NS9530 cermet grade?
The NS9530 uncoated cermet is best for finishing passes with continuous cuts and small depths of cut, where low cutting forces and excellent surface finish are priorities.

How does the 0.2 mm corner radius affect the finished part?
A 0.2 mm corner radius supports finer profile details and smoother surface transitions, improving the final appearance and reducing the need for secondary finishing.
