DCGT 11T304 SH7025 ISO indexable turning insert for turning — rhombic 55°, 0.4 mm nose radius (Tungaloy)

The DCGT 11T304 SH7025 is an ISO-standardised rhombic indexable insert engineered for external and internal turning, offering a tough coated carbide grade suited to small tools and varying engagement conditions.

• ISO-standard rhombic 55° geometry
• Coated carbide grade SH7025 for toughness
• 0.4 mm nose radius for fine finishing
• Cylindrical hole with single-side countersink

Stable machining where engagement changes

The coated carbide grade SH7025 provides a balance of toughness and edge stability that reduces the risk of premature edge failure when cut conditions vary. As a coated carbide insert with an optimised microstructure, the plate offers consistent chip formation and extended life on interrupted cuts. This results in fewer indexings and lower tooling costs per component, improving overall process economy without compromising surface quality.

Fast, reliable set-up and proven ISO compatibility

Being ISO-standardised, the insert guarantees compatibility with a wide range of clamping systems when the holder matches form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening style, size and thickness. The rhombic plate and its cylindrical hole with a single-side countersink (40°–60°) allow secure seating and repeatable clamping, which shortens set-up time and reduces vibration-induced tool wear. Specified dimensions such as 11 mm size and 3.97 mm thickness make tool selection straightforward and predictable for production planners.

Geometry tailored for precision and surface finish

The combination of the 55° included angle and 0.4 mm nose radius supports both profile turning and finishing passes, delivering a good surface even on semi-finishing cuts. The one-sided chipbreaker helps control chip flow and minimises re-cutting, while the rhombic shape provides two usable cutting edges per side depending on orientation. These geometric choices are particularly useful when the priority is a consistent finish with manageable cutting forces rather than aggressive material removal.

Application guidance and material considerations

Designed primarily for turning, the insert is suitable for both external and internal operations; the SH7025 grade is specifically recommended for small tooling or situations with fluctuating engagement. Selection of the correct chipbreaker and matching grade to the workpiece material is essential: the tougher SH7025 excels where edge stability under variable loads is required. For best results, pair the insert with a suitable ISO holder, ensure correct clearance and fastening, and monitor feed and speed to align with the chosen chipbreaker performance.

FAQ

What applications suit this insert best? The DCGT 11T304 SH7025 Tungaloy indexable insert is intended for general external and internal turning, particularly where edge stability is required under variable engagement.

Which workpiece materials are appropriate? The SH7025-coated carbide grade is a tough, edge-stable option; it is recommended where interrupted cuts or small tooling demands require reliable performance with consistent chip formation.

How does the insert mount in a holder? Clamping depends on matching form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; the DCGT11T304’s cylindrical hole with a single-side countersink ensures secure seating when used with compatible ISO holders.

What cutting performance can be expected from the 0.4 mm radius? A 0.4 mm nose radius supports improved surface finish on finishing and semi-finishing passes while maintaining acceptable cutting forces; it is a compromise between sharpness and edge strength.

Is this an original Tungaloy product and how is it identified? This is an original Tungaloy indexable turning insert, identified by the designation DCGT11T304 SH7025 and manufacturer article number 7743500
