Kennametal 7093407 Tpg Turning Insert Triangle Carbide

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 7093407 is a TPG-style carbide turning insert designed for precision metal cutting on CNC and manual lathes. Featuring a triangular insert shape with three cutting edges, it delivers consistent performance across roughing and finishing passes. The insert carries a KCU10B manufacturer grade with an AlTiN coating, providing heat resistance and extended tool life in demanding turning applications. With a relief angle of 11 degrees, a 0.0313-inch corner radius, and a 60-degree included angle, it is suited for stable, controlled chip formation. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install this insert as a direct replacement in compatible TPG toolholders.

This insert is used in general-purpose turning operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials in both production shop and jobsite environments. Its neutral hand orientation makes it versatile across a range of toolholder setups. The 3/8-inch inscribed circle and 1/8-inch thickness conform to standard TPG insert geometry, making it a practical replacement option for shops running TPG-compatible tooling systems. No chip breaker is included, which suits applications where full edge contact and clean surface finish are priorities.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the machine before changing inserts. Use the appropriate torque wrench and insert screw to secure the insert per the toolholder manufacturer's specification. Inspect the insert pocket for wear or debris before seating a new insert to ensure proper clamping and edge alignment.
