TPGR 160308 NS9530 ISO triangular turning insert for finishing – Tungaloy

A TPGR160308 NS9530 ISO triangular turning insert designed for fine finishing operations in metal turning, delivering low cutting forces and superior surface quality.

• Cermet finishing grade NS9530 for Stahl
• Sharp cutting edge for high surface finish
• One-sided chipbreaker for controlled chips
• ISO triangular insert, 16 mm size, 11° clearance

Consistent finishing quality with low cutting forces

The insert is engineered as a Cermet finishing grade (NS9530) to reduce cutting forces while maintaining a sharp cutting edge that produces an improved surface texture on finishing passes. Cermet substrates combine hardness with heat resistance, which helps to keep the cutting edge stable during continuous cuts. The result is a predictable reduction in cutting load and a consistently better surface on components made from Stahl, making the insert particularly suitable for final passes where profile accuracy and finish are critical.

Stable chip formation and process reliability

A single-sided chipbreaker provides reliable chip control in a range of finishing conditions, assisting in uninterrupted material evacuation and lowering the risk of surface damage. The combination of chip geometry and the insert's edge preparation promotes stable cutting, which in turn supports higher process reproducibility and fewer interruptions on the shop floor. Compatibility with standard ISO holders ensures the clamping and seat geometry contribute to overall process stability rather than introducing variability.

Easy integration into ISO turning tool systems

The insert follows ISO geometry with a triangular form and a 16 mm inscribed circle; the 11° clearance angle and a nominal corner radius of 0.8 mm together determine the contact mechanics at the tool–workpiece interface. A plate thickness of 3.18 mm supports secure clamping and repeatable positioning on the cutter body. These standardised dimensions simplify tool selection and reduce setup time, enabling quick integration into existing toolsets while maintaining repeatable part tolerances across batches.

Application focus and productivity benefits

Designed primarily for external and internal turning in finishing operations, this grade excels in continuous cuts and small depths of cut where surface appearance and dimensional accuracy are priorities. The uncoated Cermet composition balances wear resistance with edge sharpness, offering longer effective cutting life in finishing scenarios and potentially lower total tooling cost per part. By improving surface finish and reducing rework, the insert supports more efficient production cycles and higher first-pass yield.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The TPGR160308 NS9530 insert is a finishing grade optimised for machining Stahl, providing a sharp edge and low cutting forces for high-quality finishes.

How does the chipbreaker affect machining?
The one-sided chipbreaker on this turning insert improves chip control during continuous finishing cuts, which enhances process stability and surface integrity.

Which toolholders are compatible with the insert?
The insert follows ISO geometry and is compatible with standard ISO triangular holders designed for 16 mm inserts; proper seating and clamping depend on holder form, clearance and tolerance class.

What are the key dimensional specifications to check before ordering?
Verify the inscribed circle (16 mm), plate thickness (3.18 mm), corner radius (0.8 mm) and clearance angle (11°) to ensure compatibility with the chosen holder and application.

Is this a coated grade and what are the benefits?
This is an uncoated Cermet finishing grade (NS9530), which offers a very sharp edge for improved surface finish while maintaining wear resistance suited to finishing passes.
