Value Collection 112370206 TPG432 Carbide Turning Insert

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 112370206 is a solid carbide turning insert in the TPG style, designed for use in precision CNC and manual lathe operations. It carries ANSI insert code TPG432 and ISO insert code TPG220408, making it straightforward to cross-reference in standard tooling catalogs. The insert features a triangular shape with a 60-degree included angle, an 11-degree relief angle, and a positive side clearance geometry. Grade I55 carbide with a material grade of C5 suits this insert for machining ferrous workpiece materials. The flat-top chip breaker design keeps chip control predictable across a range of feed and depth-of-cut conditions.

This insert is used in external turning and facing applications on CNC lathes and manual engine lathes where a triangular TPG-style seat is present. The 1/2-inch inscribed circle and 3/16-inch thickness fit standard TPG432 toolholders with a clamp-style holding method. It is suited for production environments handling steel and similar primary workpiece materials coded P, where consistent surface finish and edge integrity are required. Machinists, toolroom operators, and CNC programmers specifying consumable cutting tools for turning centers will find this insert a direct-fit option for TPG432-compatible holders.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction, grade I55, material grade C5 for ferrous turning applications
• TPG style with clamp holding method and positive side clearance for stable seating
• Flat-top chip breaker for predictable chip formation without a molded groove
• 1/2-inch inscribed circle diameter with 1/32-inch corner radius for moderate finishing work
• Tolerance code G and clearance code P per ANSI/ISO classification standards
• Triangular insert shape provides three usable cutting edges per insert

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for standard TPG432 clamp-style turning insert toolholders accepting a triangular insert with a 1/2-inch inscribed circle and 3/16-inch thickness.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or indexing any insert. Use the appropriate clamp screw and torque driver recommended by the toolholder manufacturer to secure the insert. Inspect the insert pocket and clamp for chips or wear before installing a new edge.
