Tungaloy expands its -HP geometry line of T-CBN inserts that ensures effective chip control in finish turning of hardened steel parts.
The -HP geometry provides reliable chip control in finish cutting conditions at cutting depths of 0.2 mm (0.0079") or smaller, minimizing part quality damages caused by poor chip control.
Twenty-two additional –HP geometry T-CBN inserts are now available which further increases the chipbreaker application range in hard turning.
At a Glance
Innovative chip former ensures good chip breakage and smooth chip control
Free cutting geometry eliminates bar deflection and vibration during machining
Built-in wiper ensures better surface quality and chip control
Available in BXM10 for continuous cut and BXA20 for interrupted cut
Groove or other tool geometry that breaks chips into small fragments as they come off the workpiece. Designed to prevent chips from becoming so long that they are difficult to control, catch in turning parts and cause safety problems.
Cutting tool repeatedly enters and exits the work. Subjects tool to shock loading, making tool toughness, impact strength and flexibility vital. Closely associated with milling operations. See shock loading.
Workpiece is held in a chuck, mounted on a face plate or secured between centers and rotated while a cutting tool, normally a single-point tool, is fed into it along its periphery or across its end or face. Takes the form of straight turning (cutting along the periphery of the workpiece); taper turning (creating a taper); step turning (turning different-size diameters on the same work); chamfering (beveling an edge or shoulder); facing (cutting on an end); turning threads (usually external but can be internal); roughing (high-volume metal removal); and finishing (final light cuts). Performed on lathes, turning centers, chucking machines, automatic screw machines and similar machines.
Metal-removing edge on the face of a cutter that travels in a plane perpendicular to the axis. It is the edge that sweeps the machined surface. The flat should be as wide as the feed per revolution of the cutter. This allows any given insert to wipe the entire workpiece surface and impart a fine surface finish at a high feed rate.
Providing exceptional reliability and increased tool life in steel, the new AH3225 insert grade consists of a unique nano-multilayer coating featuring three distinctive characteristics for improved resistance to built-up edge, wear, and delamination, combined with a dedicated tough carbide Read More

DrillForceMeister incorporates a unique head-shank coupling interface that provides exceptional reliability when drilling relatively large diameter holes from 20 millimeters to 41 millimeters. When clamped, the drill head interlocks with the shank at larger contact areas, promoting high hole Read More
The CBN-tipped mini boring bars feature BX310 uncoated CBN grade that increases the grade’s wear resistance when used at low to medium cutting speeds, making it perfect for machining small bores from as small as 2.8 millimeter (.110 inch) diameter of hardened steel parts.
The QC16 line offers toolholders with 16x16 mm square shanks and the matching modular cutting heads. The new line features an enhanced coupling that is capable of sustaining high cutting edge repeatability and tool rigidity when used for applications generating greater cutting loads that Read More
DoMultiRec multifunctional milling cutter with center cutting capability enables a single tool to perform multiple milling operations, including shouldering, pocketing, and drilling. The DoMultiRec inserts to ensure strong and sharp cutting edges during various milling and drilling operations.
A PVD-coated cemented carbide grade, AH8015 features an extremely hard high-aluminum content multilayer coating that is combined with a tough dedicated carbide substrate. The grade provides the insert with a well-balanced wear and chipping resistance.
AddInternalCut inserts are available in two sizes: TCIG10 insert is for internal grooving of minimum bore diameter of 10.5 millimeters (.413 inches) and up. TCIG12 allows a maximum groove depth (CDX) of 3.0 millimeters (.118 inches).
Together with successful AH7025 grade for first choice, AH6235 and AH8005 grades will enhance TungCut performances in parting and grooving operations with interruptions, as well as grooving and turning operations with aggressive conditions.
