Kennametal 7093225 Cngg Turning Insert KCU10B Altin Carbide

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 7093225 is a CNGG-style carbide turning insert designed for precision CNC and manual lathe operations. It features an 80-degree diamond insert shape with a neutral hand orientation and an AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride) coating for elevated wear resistance and thermal stability. The manufacturer grade is KCU10B, a CVD or PVD carbide substrate suited for demanding turning applications. With a 0.10 mm (0.0040 inch) corner radius and a 0-degree relief angle, this insert is configured for finish-to-semi-finish turning where tight tolerances and controlled chip formation are required. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install this insert into compatible CNGG toolholders.

This insert is used in turning centers and engine lathes for machining operations that demand dimensional consistency and surface finish control. The FS chip breaker geometry supports stable chip evacuation across a range of depths of cut and feed rates. With 4 cutting edges available per insert, it offers extended tool life per unit. Typical applications include finish turning of ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces in precision component manufacturing, aerospace, and general metalworking environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the machine before seating or indexing the insert. Use the correct torque wrench and clamping hardware specified for the toolholder to avoid insert fracture or poor seating. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or debris before each insert change.
