TPGT130302 NS9530 indexable insert for turning — Tungaloy, triangular 60° geometry

TPGT130302 NS9530 is an ISO‑standard indexable turning insert intended for finish turning of steel, supplied as a triangular insert with a 60° main cutting angle and a cylindrically bored mounting hole with one‑sided countersink.

• Uncoated cermet NS9530 for finish turning
• Triangular 60° geometry, 13 mm size
• 0.2 mm corner radius for fine edge finish
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

Improved surface finish with a finish‑grade cermet

The uncoated cermet grade NS9530 is formulated for low cutting forces and a sharp cutting edge, which translates into consistent, high‑quality surface finishes on steel during continuous cutting. As a finish‑grade material, it reduces the need for secondary operations and helps maintain dimensional tolerances when light depths of cut are used. The combination of a crisp edge and a 0.2 mm corner radius supports fine edge integrity and predictable edge wear, yielding repeatable results in serial production.

Stable clamping and repeatable positioning for efficient turning

The insert’s triangular 60° geometry and the cylindrical hole with a 40°–60° countersink ensure secure seating in ISO‑compliant toolholders. This mechanical stability reduces vibrations and improves repeatability between insert changes. With a thickness of 3.18 mm and a standard size of 13 mm, the insert integrates seamlessly into common holder systems; compatibility is governed by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fixing method and size, all standardised for straightforward tool selection and inventory management.

Optimised cutting behaviour and chip control

A single‑sided chipbreaker on the active face supports reliable chip formation during finishing passes. For continuous cuts and small feed depths, this chip control reduces the risk of built‑up edge and promotes smooth evacuation of chips, improving surface quality and tool life. The rake angle of 11° moderates cutting forces and is particularly suitable for finish turning of steel, where low cutting force and surface integrity are priorities.

Practical benefits for production workflows

Adopting this insert design can shorten cycle time by avoiding unnecessary secondary finishing, while the material’s wear characteristics make tool life more predictable. The insert is supplied as part of an ISO insert system that includes the matching external holder or boring bar, clamp set and replacement screws; choosing the correct chipbreaker and grade according to workpiece material and stability ensures the best economic outcome. The clear ISO designation facilitates ordering and stock control, reducing administrative friction in replenishment.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The TPGT130302 NS9530 insert is a finishgrade cermet optimised for steel machining and is recommended where low cutting forces and high surface quality are required.

Which toolholders are compatible with this insert?
Compatibility is determined by standard ISO criteria — form, relief angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness — so the insert fits ISO‑compliant triangular turning holders and boring bars designed for a 13 mm insert.

How does the chipbreaker affect performance?
The single‑sided chipbreaker on this insert supports stable chip formation during finishing passes, improving chip evacuation and surface finish when used at small depths of cut and in continuous cutting.

What does the 0.2 mm corner radius mean for surface finish?
A 0.2 mm corner radius produces a fine cutting edge that balances edge strength with a refined surface finish, making it suitable for finishing operations where tight surface tolerance and minimal post‑processing are desired.

Is the insert suited to interrupted or heavy roughing cuts?
This grade and geometry are optimised for finish turning and continuous cuts with small depths of cut; for interrupted cuts or heavy roughing a more robust grade and different chipbreaker would be appropriate.
