TPMT 130304 NS9530 ISO triangular turning insert, 60° geometry — Tungaloy

The TPMT130304-PS NS9530 is an ISO-standard triangular turning insert optimised for finishing steel, designed for continuous cuts and high surface quality.

• ISO triangular insert, 60° geometry
• Uncoated cermet grade NS9530
• PS chipbreaker for continuous cutting
• 0.4 mm corner radius for fine finish

Precision finishing with low cutting forces

The insert’s core benefit is its uncoated cermet composition in grade NS9530, which provides a sharp cutting edge and low friction during continuous turning operations. This results in reduced cutting forces and improved surface integrity on steel components, meaning fewer secondary operations and shortened cycle times. The combination of material and geometry targets finishing applications where surface quality and dimensional stability are priorities, ensuring parts leave the lathe with a consistent finish and minimal burr formation.

System compatibility and straightforward toolset management

As an ISO-standard insert, compatibility is determined by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; the series is supplied for use with matching external holders or boring bars together with support pads, clamp sets and replacement screws. The insert features a 60° triangle and an 11° relief angle, with a cylindrical hole and one-sided countersink (40°–60°) for secure clamping. This standardisation reduces tool inventory complexity and simplifies re-indexing, enabling shops to maintain throughput with familiar toolholding systems and predictable mounting repeatability.

Stable process behaviour and surface-focused geometry

The integrated PS chipbreaker is tuned for continuous-cut conditions and small depths of cut, promoting consistent chip control and stable cutting forces. The 0.4 mm corner radius aids in achieving fine surface finishes while preserving edge life, and the 3.18 mm plate thickness contributes to stiffness during interrupted cuts. For turning operations on steel where finishing quality and process reliability matter, this insert balances edge sharpness with operational robustness to support predictable production runs.
