Kyocera TSJ00835 Turning Insert DNMG432HQ TN60 Cermet

Product Description

The KYOCERA TSJ00835 is a cermet-grade indexable turning insert designed for precision metal cutting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Manufactured to ANSI and ISO standards, this insert carries the industry designation DNMG432HQ with grade TN60 and a TiCN plus NbC coating classification listed as uncoated process. The 55-degree diamond shape with a neutral hand orientation provides four usable cutting edges per insert. The HQ chip breaker geometry paired with a honed cutting edge style makes it well-suited for finishing and semi-finishing passes on steel and stainless steel workpieces at tight tolerances.

This insert is applied in external turning, boring, and copying operations on CNC turning equipment. The primary workpiece material is steel, with stainless steel as the secondary material class, covering ISO material grades P01, P10, and P20. The ISOI series designation and DNMG form factor make this a standard fit for toolholders accepting that pocket geometry. It is typically installed by machinists and CNC operators in job shop, production turning, and maintenance machining environments.

Key Features

• 55-degree diamond insert shape (Shape Code D) delivers a sharp approach angle for profiling and copying cuts
• Four cutting edges per insert extend tool life and reduce per-edge cost
• HQ chip breaker geometry optimized for finishing and semi-finishing on steel and stainless steel
• TiCN plus NbC cermet substrate (grade TN60) provides wear resistance on P-class workpiece materials
• Honed cutting edge style reduces micro-chipping on interrupted cuts
• Multi-use capability across external turning, boring, and copying applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit insert for DNMG-style toolholders conforming to ANSI and ISO DNMG150408HQ pocket specifications. Industry standard number DNMG432HQTN60 can be used to cross-reference equivalent inserts from other manufacturers.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing inserts. This insert is held by clamp and pin method — confirm the toolholder retains both the clamp and the locating pin before torquing. Do not exceed the maximum depth of cut for the insert size, and inspect the pocket seat for chips or debris before indexing to a fresh cutting edge.
