Tungaloy DC Series 55° Diamond Positive Inserts | DCMT DCGT Turning

Tungaloy DC 55° Diamond Positive Inserts

Low Cutting Force | High Clearance | Precision Internal Boring Specialists

Which 55° diamond positive insert is best for precision boring in small diameters?

The Tungaloy DC Series (including DCMT and DCGT) is the premier choice for internal boring and intricate external profiling. Featuring a 55° diamond shape with a 7° positive relief angle, these inserts provide significant clearance, making them indispensable for small-hole machining where tool interference is a risk. Tungaloy combines high-performance substrates with advanced coatings like AH725 for versatile stainless steel work and NS530 Cermet for achieving mirror-like finishes. The -PS (Power Shapers) and -JS chipbreakers are precision-tuned to manage chips in tight spaces, ensuring they break small and evacuate rapidly to prevent surface damage.

Excellent Hole Clearance

The 55° geometry offers the best clearance among standard shapes, allowing for deep boring operations without bar deflection or interference.

High Precision (G-Tolerance)

DCGT models offer ground peripheries for extreme repeatability and sharp edges, ideal for aluminum and non-ferrous finishing.

Low Resistance Geometry

Designed to reduce cutting forces, these inserts are perfect for thin-walled components and machines with lower spindle torque.

Global Shop Success

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Perfect for Boring" - Luca M., Italy
"DCMT 07 series with AH725 is our standard for internal work. Very stable and the tool life is predictable even in tough alloys."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Surface Finish King" - Jonathan P., USA
"Using the NS530 cermet for finishing steel shafts. The parts come out looking like they were polished. Highly recommended."

⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Great Swiss Tooling" - A. Schmidt, Germany
"DCGT 11T3 series works beautifully in our Citizen machines for aluminum jobs. The edge is incredibly sharp."

Technical FAQ

Q: When should I choose DCGT over DCMT?

A: Choose DCGT for aluminum or non-ferrous materials where you need a sharp, ground edge. Choose DCMT for steel/stainless applications requiring higher edge strength.

Q: Can I use DC inserts for external profiling?

A: Yes, they are excellent for profiling where clearance is tight, though the DN (55° negative) shape is generally preferred for heavy external profiling due to edge economy.

Tech Tip: Avoiding Deflection

For internal boring with **DC series** inserts, always ensure the boring bar overhang is as short as possible. Use **AH725** for tough cuts to ensure the edge doesn't crumble during vibration. **BEYOND CNC** - Industrial Strength Solutions.
