TNMG160402 GT9530 TNMG 160402 GT9530 — Tungaloy indexable turning insert, coated cermet, 0.2 mm radius

The TNMG160402 GT9530 is an ISO-standard triangular indexable insert designed for turning applications, offering a wear-resistant coated cermet grade that excels in finishing and light universal steel machining.

• Coated cermet grade GT9530 for finishing
• ISO TNMG 160402 triangular insert
• 0.2 mm corner radius for fine finishes

Improved surface finish and longer tool life with coated cermet

The coated cermet grade GT9530 combines hardness and thermal stability to deliver a consistent finish on steel components under stable machining conditions. The fine 0.2 mm corner radius reduces edge breakage and supports repeatable surface quality on external and internal turning operations. Cermet grades are optimised for light to finishing cuts: they resist adhesive wear better than uncoated carbides and can extend tool life where process stability allows, leading to fewer tool changes and lower downtime.

ISO compatibility and secure clamping for predictable machining

Designed to the ISO TNMG specification, this triangular insert fits holders that match the plate form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The insert features a cylindrical hole, a double-sided chipbreaker and a 4.76 mm plate thickness, enabling two usable cutting edges per side and straightforward indexing. This standardisation simplifies stock management and reduces setup variability, so fixtures and holders deliver reliable repeatability across batches.

Practical guidance for selecting chipbreakers and process parameters

For optimal results when turning steel, select the double-sided chipbreaker and a suitable cutting geometry that match workpiece rigidity and machining strategy. Use lighter depths of cut and finishing feeds with this grade to exploit its surface-capability; secure tooling and a compatible holder minimise vibration and support the grade’s advantage in finish. The system approach — insert, holder, underlay/clamping set and replacement screws — ensures secure clamping and straightforward maintenance, which helps maintain productivity and reduces scrap rates.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The TNMG160402 GT9530 insert is intended primarily for steel machining; the GT9530 coated cermet excels in finishing and light universal operations on steel when machining conditions are stable.

Is the insert reversible or indexable on both sides?
Yes, the triangular design with a double-sided chipbreaker provides multiple indexable cutting edges; the plate thickness and cylindrical hole support secure clamping and reliable indexing.

How does the 0.2 mm corner radius affect cutting performance?
The 0.2 mm corner radius yields a finer cutting edge that improves surface finish and reduces the risk of edge chipping during finishing passes, making it suitable for components requiring good surface quality.

Which holder features must be checked for compatibility?
Compatibility depends on holder form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; verify that the external holder or boring bar matches the ISO TNMG160402 geometry and clamping style.

Can this insert be used for roughing operations?
The GT9530 is a wear-resistant finishing to light universal grade optimised for stable conditions; for heavy roughing, consider grades and chipbreakers designed for higher feed and depth of cut.
