Value Collection 112370209 TPG432 Carbide Turning Insert

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 112370209 is a solid carbide turning insert designed for precision metal-cutting operations on CNC and manual lathes. Conforming to ANSI insert code TPG432 and ISO insert code TPG220408, this triangular insert features a 60-degree included angle, an 11-degree relief angle, and a positive side clearance geometry. The 1/32-inch corner radius and flat-top chip breaker configuration make it well suited for finishing and light roughing passes. Grade I22 carbide provides the hardness and wear resistance required for consistent performance on a range of workpiece materials. Licensed machinists and CNC operators typically specify this insert for general turning applications.

This insert is intended for use in TPG-style toolholders on CNC turning centers and manual engine lathes. It is compatible with workpiece material codes K (cast iron), M (stainless steel), N (non-ferrous), and S (heat-resistant superalloys) per ISO classification. The flat-top, positive-clearance geometry reduces cutting forces and is particularly effective on non-ferrous materials, stainless, and exotic alloys where chip control and surface finish are priorities. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

Key Features

• ANSI code TPG432 and ISO code TPG220408 for standardized toolholder compatibility
• Solid carbide construction, material grade C2, for high wear resistance
• 60-degree triangular insert shape provides three usable cutting edges
• Positive side clearance and flat-top chip breaker reduce cutting forces
• 1/32-inch (0.0315-inch) corner radius suitable for finishing and light roughing
• 1/2-inch inscribed circle (IC) with 3/16-inch insert thickness for rigid clamping

Compatibility

Designed for use in TPG-style clamp-held toolholders accepting a 432-size triangular insert with a 1/2-inch inscribed circle. Compatible workpiece material classifications include K, M, N, and S per ISO designation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or indexing the insert. Secure the insert using the appropriate clamp and torque the clamp screw according to the toolholder manufacturer specifications. Inspect the insert seat and clamp for chips or debris before each insert change to ensure proper seating and prevent premature edge failure.
