WBGT 030104 NS9530 Tungaloy — ISO turning insert for finishing, trigon 03, 0.4 mm radius

WBGT030104 NS9530 Tungaloy — a compact ISO-standard indexable insert designed for precision finishing in turning applications

• Uncoated cermet grade NS9530 for finishing
• Trigon shape (03) for versatile turning
• 0.4 mm corner radius for fine surface finish
• 5° relief; centre hole with 40°–60° countersink

Exceptional surface quality for finishing in steel turning

The uncoated cermet grade NS9530 is optimised for finishing applications on steel, delivering a sharp cutting edge and low cutting forces that translate into superior surface finish and dimensional consistency. As a finishing grade, this insert is particularly suited to continuous cuts and small depths of cut where surface integrity and minimal burr formation are priorities. The substrate combines the wear resistance of carbide with a finer cutting geometry typical of cermet materials, enabling stable results on long runs without excessive cutting forces.

Consistent chip control and gentle cutting mechanics

A single-sided chipbreaker and the insert’s refined edge geometry reduce vibration and promote predictable chip formation, which is essential for automated turning cycles and bar-fed operations. The 0.4 mm corner radius supports fine surface texture while avoiding abrupt cutting loads; the combination of this radius with the 5° relief ensures low friction at the cutting zone and less tendency for built-up edge. These characteristics reduce secondary finishing, shorten cycle times and support repeatable component quality in production environments.

ISO compatibility and straightforward tool system integration

Delivered as an ISO-standard turning insert, the item fits holders that match form, clearance, tolerance class, fixation, size and thickness. The insert’s trigon (03) format and its centre hole with cylindrical bore and one-sided countersink (40°–60°) allow reliable clamping and orientation control in compatible external holders or boring bars. This system approach simplifies inventory planning: base components include the insert, a matching external holder or bar, and the necessary clamp/screw set and shim, enabling quick changeover and consistent tool set-up.

Material considerations and application guidance

Manufactured from carbide with a cermet cutting composition and a 1.59 mm plate thickness, the insert is optimised for finishing steel with an emphasis on surface quality rather than heavy material removal. The geometry and edge preparation focus on low cutting forces and a durable edge for continuous cuts. For best results, select a holder that ensures rigid support and minimal overhang; pairing the insert with appropriately adjusted feed and speed parameters helps exploit the NS9530 grade’s advantages in reducing microchatter and improving part finish.

FAQ

What cutting tasks is this insert best suited for?
The WBGT030104 NS9530 Tungaloy insert is designed for finishing operations in turning, particularly continuous cuts and small depths of cut on steel where a high surface finish is required.

Which toolholders are compatible with this insert?
Compatibility depends on form, clearance, tolerance class, fixation, size and thickness; the insert conforms to ISO turning insert standards and fits holders designed for trigon 03 inserts with a centre hole and countersink.

How does the 0.4 mm corner radius affect part finish?
A 0.4 mm corner radius improves surface texture by reducing tool marks while maintaining controlled cutting forces, supporting fine finishes without promoting premature edge breakage.

Is the insert coated?
No — the cutting material is an uncoated cermet (NS9530), chosen to provide a sharp edge and excellent finish on steel rather than a coated wear layer.

What advantages does the trigon form offer?
The trigon shape gives a compact cutting edge with multiple indexing positions and good access in both external and internal turning, supporting versatile use in finishing operations.
