TNMG160404 NS9530 turning insert (ISO) by Tungaloy — uncoated cermet, 0.4 mm radius

TNMG160404 NS9530 is a triangular, ISO‑format turning insert designed for finishing operations in steel turning and compatible with standard TNMG toolholders

• TNMG 160404 ISO triangular insert
• Uncoated cermet NS9530 for finishing
• 0.4 mm corner radius for fine surface finish
• Double-sided chipbreaker, centre hole

Consistent finishing quality with a sharp cermet grade

The NS9530 uncoated cermet is engineered for finishing cuts on steel, delivering a sharp cutting edge and low cutting forces that improve dimensional control. For continuous cutting and small depths of cut, the grade promotes a stable cutting action and reduced tendency for built‑up edge, which in turn enhances the achievable surface finish. The modest corner radius is selected to balance edge strength with the fine finish expected in final turning passes.

ISO compatibility and secure clamping for predictable performance

Built to the ISO TNMG160404 form, the insert’s triangular geometry and specified tolerances ensure predictable fitment in mating holders. The insert specifies a 60° included angle and a 0° clearance face, with a cylindrical centre hole for screw clamping. These attributes facilitate repeatable seating and secure clamping, so index changes maintain concentricity and cutting line position. Clear identification of form, free angle and thickness simplifies holder selection and reduces setup time.

Productivity advantages through indexable design and chip control

The double‑sided design offers two usable cutting edges per index, improving tool economy while the integrated, double‑sided chipbreaker supports effective chip control during finishing cuts. The uncoated cermet substrate is particularly effective where low cutting forces and high surface quality are priorities; it performs best with stable setups and modest feeds. Selection of the chipbreaker and the NS9530 grade should be matched to workpiece steel, machine rigidity and the intended feed to extract maximum tool life and consistent results.

FAQ

Is this insert suitable for finishing steel? Yes. The TNMG160404 NS9530 Tungaloy turning insert is a finishing grade specifically formulated for steel work, offering a sharp cutting edge and reduced cutting forces for improved surface quality.

How many usable edges does the insert provide? The TNMG160404 is double‑sided, providing two indexable cutting edges per side; this offers multiple re‑indexes for economic use of the insert.

What does the 0.4 mm corner radius mean for the finish? A 0.4 mm corner radius delivers a fine surface finish while retaining sufficient edge strength for typical finishing passes with small depths of cut.

Is the insert supplied with a coating? This Tungaloy insert is an uncoated cermet in the NS9530 grade, optimised for finishing applications where a sharp edge and low cutting forces are required.

Does the insert require a specific holder type? Compatibility is determined by the ISO TNMG form, holder geometry, clearance angle and clamping method; the triangular ISO form and cylindrical centre hole suit standard TNMG holders.
