TPMR 160308 NS9530 — ISO turning insert for finishing, Tungaloy

TPMR160308 NS9530 is an ISO-standard triangular turning insert engineered for precision finishing in turning applications on steel.

• TPMR160308 ISO triangular turning insert
• Uncoated cermet NS9530 finishing grade
• Sharp edge for low cutting forces and fine finish
• Single-sided chipbreaker for continuous cuts

High-precision finishing with low cutting forces

The TPMR160308 NS9530 insert is manufactured as an uncoated cermet finishing grade specifically optimised for turning steel. The combination of a sharp cutting edge and the cermet substrate reduces friction and delivers a consistently improved surface finish, particularly in continuous cutting and small depth-of-cut operations. For production environments focused on component finish and dimensional accuracy, this finishing grade provides repeatable results and predictable tool behaviour. The result is reduced rework and a smoother handover to downstream machining or inspection.

ISO compatibility for faster setup and consistent results

As an ISO-standard triangular insert, the plate’s fit is governed by its shape, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening and thickness, which simplifies holder selection and changeovers. Key geometrical data such as the 11° relief angle, 3.18 mm plate thickness and 16 mm size support consistent seating and repeatable tool offsets when used with compatible external holders or boring bars. This compatibility shortens setup time, lowers the risk of assembly errors and contributes to steady process stability in repetitive turning tasks.

Practical productivity: chip control and application guidance

The insert features a single-sided chipbreaker, enabling stable chip formation in continuous cuts and small feed operations; this improves evacuation and reduces the chance of surface damage from erratic chips. The carbide substrate offers the rigidity required for finishing tasks, while the uncoated cermet chemistry enhances edge sharpness for low cutting forces. Selection of correct cutting parameters is essential: matching speed and feed to the NS9530 grade yields the best compromise between tool life and surface quality. For routine production, this plate is a pragmatic choice where high-quality finishes and consistent process behaviour are priorities.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The TPMR160308 NS9530 is a finishing-grade uncoated cermet optimised for steel machining and provides superior surface quality in continuous turning operations.

How does the chipbreaker influence performance?
The single-sided chipbreaker on this insert promotes stable chip control during continuous cuts, improving evacuation and helping to protect the finished surface.

Which holders are compatible with this ISO plate?
Compatibility depends on holder form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; the ISO designation TPMR160308 facilitates selection of matching external holders or boring bars.

What geometrical data are critical when setting up the tool?
Important parameters include the 11° relief angle, 3.18 mm plate thickness, 16 mm size and 0.8 mm corner radius to ensure correct seating and repeatable offsets.

Is the grade coated or uncoated and what does that mean for cutting parameters?
The NS9530 grade is uncoated cermet, offering a very sharp edge for finishing; cutting speeds and feeds should be adjusted to exploit low cutting forces while preserving tool life.
