Ingersoll Cutting Tools 5523116 Turning Insert CNGG430ML

Product Description

The INGERSOLL CUTTING TOOLS 5523116 is a solid carbide turning insert in the CNGG series, designed for precision external and internal turning operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It carries the TT5080 manufacturer grade and features a dual-layer AlTiN and TiN PVD coating for extended tool life in demanding cutting conditions. The insert has a neutral hand orientation, an 80-degree diamond shape, a 0.508-inch length, a 0.5-inch inscribed circle, a 0.004-inch corner radius, and a 3/16-inch insert thickness. The ML chip breaker geometry is suited for light to medium cutting passes. It provides 4 usable cutting edges per insert.

This insert is engineered for machining stainless steel, super-alloys, and titanium, material groups M and S under ISO classification. It is a fit for production turning environments where tight tolerances and surface finish consistency are required. The CNGG tolerance and clearance code N configuration means it is held in a clamp-style toolholder. The maximum depth of cut is 0.039 inches. It is suitable for use on conventional turning centers and Swiss-style lathes where a negative rake geometry is appropriate for the workpiece material.

Key Features

• Solid carbide substrate with AlTiN and TiN PVD dual-layer coating for heat and wear resistance
• 80-degree diamond insert shape with 0.004-inch corner radius for precise contouring
• ML chip breaker geometry optimized for light to medium depth-of-cut passes
• Neutral hand orientation supports flexible right-hand and left-hand toolholder setups
• 4 cutting edges per insert reduces per-edge tooling cost
• ISO standard CNGG120401ML TT5080 designation for cross-reference with ISO toolholder systems

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNGG-style clamp toolholders that accept a 1/2-inch inscribed circle, 3/16-inch thick, 80-degree diamond insert with clearance code N and tolerance code G. Consult the toolholder manufacturer specification for exact seat and clamp requirements.

Installation Notes

Insert seating and clamping should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician following the toolholder manufacturer torque and clamping procedure. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the turret is locked before indexing or replacing inserts. Do not use damaged or chipped inserts, as this can result in insert fracture and workpiece damage. Verify chip breaker orientation and insert hand match the programmed tool path before running the first cut.
