TNMG 160408 GT9530 TNMG — Turning indexable insert by Tungaloy (coated cermet, 60°)

The TNMG160408 GT9530 is a coated cermet indexable insert designed for finishing and light universal turning under stable conditions

• Coated cermet GT9530 for long life
• Optimised for high-quality finishing
• ISO-compatible TNMG form for standard holders
• 0.8 mm nose radius and 60° geometry

High-precision finishing with wear-resistant grade

The coated cermet composition and the GT9530 grade combine to offer a solution focused on surface quality and predictable wear behaviour. As an indexable insert, the component provides repeatable geometry and edge condition, which reduces setup variability and supports consistent part tolerances. The coating reduces flank wear in stable cutting regimes and helps maintain dimensional accuracy over longer tool cycles, making the insert particularly suitable for finishing passes and light turning tasks where a fine surface and controlled material removal are priorities.

Efficiency gains through geometry and edge design

A small 0.8 mm corner radius and the 60° geometry deliver a balance between strength and finesse: the radius supports a superior surface finish while the wedge angle ensures adequate edge support for moderate cutting forces. The double-sided chipbreaker allows economical use of each indexable corner and contributes to reliable chip control when machining steels and similar ferrous materials. The insert’s design reduces the frequency of tool changes and can shorten non-productive time in repetitive production, yielding measurable process efficiency improvements in the workshop.

System compatibility and practical integration

The insert follows ISO-standardised TNMG form factors and is compatible with matching external holders or boring bars; compatibility depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. Typical system setup includes the ISO insert, a suitable external holder or boring bar, a clamp or shim set and replacement screws. The triangular shape and cylindrical hole secure rigid clamping and straightforward indexing, simplifying inventory and holder management across standard turning systems in production environments.

Application guidance and selection advice

Select the GT9530 variety when finishing steels under stable clamping and machine conditions; the coated cermet composition excels in achieving a fine surface and longer life in such use cases. For rougher cuts or unstable setups, consider grades and chipbreakers optimised for higher toughness. When choosing holders and setup parameters, match the relief angle (0°), insert thickness (4.76 mm) and inscribed circle (16 mm) to the toolholder specifications to ensure correct seating and torque distribution. Metav Werkzeuge advisors can assist with holder matching and parameter recommendations to make the most of the insert’s benefits.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The GT9530 grade is formulated as a wear-resistant coated cermet suited for finishing and light universal turning of steels and comparable ferrous materials under stable machining conditions.

Is the insert compatible with standard TNMG holders?
Compatibility follows ISO norms for the TNMG form; match holder specifications for form, thickness (4.76 mm), inscribed circle (16 mm) and fastening method to ensure correct fit and clamping.

How does the 0.8 mm corner radius affect performance?
A 0.8 mm radius supports improved surface finish and reduced tool marks in finishing passes while retaining sufficient edge strength for controlled light cutting tasks.

Can both sides of the insert be used?
The insert features a double-sided chipbreaker, allowing multiple indexing positions and economical use of available cutting edges.
