TNMG 160404 GT9530 – ISO turning insert for turning (Tungaloy)

The TNMG160404 GT9530 is an ISO-standard triangular turning insert engineered for finishing and light universal turning of steel under stable machining conditions.

• GT9530 coated cermet for improved wear resistance
• Triangular TNMG shape for stable cutting performance
• Double-sided chipbreaker for consistent chip control
• 0.4 mm corner radius for fine surface finish

Reliable finishing performance and economical tool life

The insert uses a coated cermet grade (GT9530) designed to combine wear resistance with an improved surface finish in turning operations. Cermet grades offer a harder edge and better oxidation resistance than conventional carbides, which translates into fewer tool changes and more consistent part quality when conditions are stable. This results in predictable productivity gains and lower effective tooling costs per component, particularly for finishing passes where surface integrity matters.

Predictable fit and easy interchangeability in ISO systems

As an ISO-standard indexable insert, compatibility depends on holder geometry, relief angle, tolerance class, clamping and the insert's size and thickness. The 0° relief specification and standardised form make it straightforward to match with ISO external holders or boring bars; checking these parameters before assembly avoids misfits and reduces machine downtime. The standardisation therefore supports smooth workflow integration and reliable repeatability in serial production.

Controlled chips and fine surface quality for turning steel

The insert is suitable for both external and internal turning when paired with an appropriate chipbreaker and cutting parameters. The double-sided chipbreaker enhances chip control in both orientations and permits economical use of multiple cutting edges by reversing the insert. The 0.4 mm corner radius balances edge strength with the ability to achieve a fine surface finish, making this grade appropriate for light finishing and semi-finishing passes on steel components.

System assembly, handling and practical advantages

A complete cutting system comprises the ISO insert, a matching external holder or boring bar, a shim/clamp set and replacement screws for secure mounting. The cylindrical hole provides reliable centring and clamping stability, which is essential for consistent cuts and long insert life. Produced by Tungaloy, the insert benefits from material and chipformer optimisation that supports stable machining and predictable results in production environments.
