CPMT 160508 NS9530 — Tungaloy turning insert (rhombic, 0.8 mm radius, 11° clearance)

The CPMT 160508 NS9530 is an ISO-standard rhombic turning insert optimised for finishing on steel, offering a sharp cutting edge and low cutting forces for improved surface integrity.

• ISO-indexed rhombic insert, 16 mm
• Cermet grade NS9530 for finishing
• Sharp cutting edge for low cutting forces
• 0.8 mm corner radius, 11° clearance angle

Precision finishing that reduces secondary operations

The uncoated cermet NS9530 is formulated for finishing applications on steel, delivering a sharp cutting edge that reduces cutting forces and minimises burr formation. This results in a more consistent high surface finish, often removing the need for subsequent grinding or polishing. The combination of the substrate and geometry supports fine feeds and small depths of cut while maintaining dimensional accuracy across continuous cuts.

Stable cutting performance and predictable tool life

A rhombic geometry with a 0.8 mm corner radius and 11° clearance provides a reliable balance between edge strength and form accuracy, enabling consistent chip formation under steady-state cutting. The insert’s construction from carbide ensures thermal stability during finishing passes, while the specified chipbreaker 24 aids controlled evacuation. This predictable behaviour contributes to stable cycle times and lower rework rates on serial production.

System compatibility and straightforward handling

Manufactured to ISO turning insert standards, the component fits holders that match the insert’s form, clearance and tolerance class; compatibility depends on holder type, size and clamping method. The CPMT 160508 format with 16 mm inscribed diameter and a 5.56 mm thickness allows quick replacement in common external holders and boring bars, reducing machine downtime and simplifying tool inventory management.

Application guidance for finishing steel components

For optimal results, pair the insert with a holder that provides rigid support and minimal overhang; the insert is best applied to continuous cuts and small depths of cut where surface integrity is the priority. Select feeds and cutting speeds in accordance with the machine capability and the steel grade to exploit the NS9530 finishing characteristics. The insert’s cylindrical hole with single-sided countersink (40°–60°) secures repeatable clamping and axial positioning in ISO-style clamping systems.
