Kennametal 7093143 Ccgt Turning Insert Carbide Altin

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 7093143 is a CCGT-style carbide turning insert designed for precision metal cutting on CNC lathes and turning centers. The insert features an 80-degree diamond shape with a 7-degree relief angle and a 0.008 inch (0.20 mm) corner radius, making it well suited for light finishing passes where surface quality and dimensional accuracy are critical. The KCU10B grade substrate is paired with an AlTiN coating for elevated heat resistance and extended tool life in demanding cutting conditions. This insert is installed and changed by machinists and CNC operators as part of routine tooling maintenance.

This insert is appropriate for finishing and semi-finishing operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a tight corner radius and neutral hand orientation are required. The LF chip breaker geometry is designed to manage chip flow in light-depth, high-feed finishing cuts. It fits indexable turning toolholders accepting CCGT-style inserts with the corresponding IC and thickness dimensions. The neutral hand designation allows use in both right-hand and left-hand holder configurations where geometry permits.

Key Features

• CCGT insert style with 80-degree diamond shape and 7-degree relief angle
• 0.008 inch (0.20 mm) corner radius for fine finishing applications
• KCU10B carbide grade with AlTiN coating for heat and wear resistance
• LF chip breaker geometry optimized for light finishing cuts
• Neutral hand — compatible with both right-hand and left-hand toolholders where geometry allows
• 2 usable cutting edges per insert

Compatibility

Designed for indexable turning toolholders accepting CCGT-style inserts with a C insert shape code, G tolerance code, and matching insert thickness and inscribed circle dimensions.

Installation Notes

Insert indexing and replacement should be performed with the machine powered down and the spindle fully stopped. Use the appropriate torque wrench and insert screw specified by the toolholder manufacturer — do not overtighten the clamping screw. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surface for chips or debris before seating a new insert. Handle carbide inserts with care, as the cutting edges are brittle and can chip if dropped or impacted.
