VBMT 110304 GT9530 turning insert – Tungaloy carbide finishing insert with PSF chipbreaker

VBMT110304-PSF GT9530 is a rhombic ISO turning insert designed for finishing and light general machining of steel, providing improved surface quality and extended tool life under stable conditions

• Coated cermet grade GT9530 for steel finishes
• ISO VBMT 110304 rhombic insert
• 5° relief angle for fine finishing
• PSF chipbreaker for stable chip control

Consistent finishing performance with a wear-resistant cermet

The GT9530 grade is a coated cermet optimised for finishing to light general-purpose turning of steel, delivering a finer edge and improved wear resistance compared with conventional carbide grades. Cermet combines ceramic hardness with metallic toughness; the coating reduces flank wear and adhesion, which translates into consistent surface finish and longer edge life when machining under steady, vibration-minimised setups. This makes the insert particularly suitable where component tolerances and visual appearance are important.

Proven ISO compatibility for flexible tool-system integration

As an ISO-standard insert, the geometry and dimensions follow established norms that determine compatibility with a wide range of holders and boring bars. Fit is governed by insert shape, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. That standardisation simplifies tool procurement and replacement planning, and allows selection of the correct holder or shim without uncertainty. The PSF chipbreaker and central hole style further assist in secure clamping and repeatable seat location.

Process benefits: chip control, edge strength and productivity

The combination of PSF chipbreakers and a 0.4 mm corner radius gives stable chip formation and an edge geometry that balances surface integrity with robustness. The 5° relief angle and 35° insert angle support fine finishing passes with low workpiece distortion, while the coated cermet chemistry helps maintain a sharp cutting edge across multiple components. The result is reduced rework, fewer tool changes and improved throughput in medium-to-high-volume turning operations.

System considerations and recommended applications

The insert forms part of a system: ISO insert, suitable external or internal holder, shim/clamp set and replacement screws for secure mounting. The rhombic form and central hole with cylindrical bore plus one-sided countersink (40°–60°) facilitate reliable seating and torque transfer. Use this grade for stable finishing of steels where excellent surface quality and predictable tool life take priority; for more variable or interrupted cuts, select holders and clamping that reduce vibration to preserve the insert’s benefits.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for? This Tungaloy VBMT110304-PSF GT9530 insert is developed primarily for machining steel, offering good surface finish and wear resistance in finishing and light general turning.

How does the GT9530 cermet grade affect tool life? The GT9530 coated cermet provides enhanced wear resistance and edge retention compared with standard carbides, which typically results in longer tool life during stable finishing operations.

Which holders are compatible with this ISO insert? Compatibility depends on the holder’s form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; use holders specified for VBMT 110304 geometry to ensure correct seating and clamping.

What is the function of the PSF chipbreaker? The PSF chipbreaker produces controlled, short chips in finishing conditions, improving chip evacuation and reducing surface imperfections during stable cuts.

Can this insert be used for internal turning? Yes, the rhombic geometry and secure clamping make the insert suitable for both external and internal turning, provided the holder offers adequate rigidity and clearance.
