Korloy TPGH110304L-CRT CN2000 (R0.4) Mirror Finish Cermet Turning Insert (10pcs)
Price shown is a starting point. Contact us for a precise quote based on your requirements.
The Original Korloy TPGH110304L-CRT CN2000 is a premium Cermet Turning Insert engineered for Stable Precision Finishing. By utilizing the robust 11-size triangular substrate and the elite CN2000 Grade, this insert provides the ultimate surface integrity on carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel. The 0.4mm (1/64") corner radius offers excellent edge strength for medium-length production runs, ensuring that your parts achieve a mirror-like finish without the risk of premature chipping.
Superior Chemical Stability: The CN2000 Cermet (Ceramic + Metal) grade possesses a very low affinity for iron-based materials. This prevents Built-Up Edge (BUE), allowing the insert to maintain a sharp, clean cutting action even at the high speeds required for ultra-fine surface finishes.
Technical Specifications:
| ISO Designation | TPGH 110304L-CRT |
| Insert Shape | Triangular 11° Positive (T) |
| Inscribed Circle (IC) | 6.35 mm / (1/4") |
| Thickness (S) | 3.18 mm / (1/8") |
| Corner Radius (r) | 0.4 mm / (0.016") |
| Grade | CN2000 (Elite Finishing Cermet) |
Core Performance Benefits:
- Enhanced Structural Rigidity: The 11-size thickness (3.18mm) significantly reduces vibrations compared to smaller TPGH sizes.
- Perfect Ra Values: CRT chipbreaker geometry is optimized to create a "wiper effect" that smoothens the surface as it cuts.
- Anti-Oxidation Performance: Cermet’s high thermal resistance allows for higher RPMs, resulting in better productivity and heat management.
- Durable 0.4mm Radius: Specifically chosen for those who need a balance between a fine finish and the ability to handle slight inconsistencies in the finishing pass.
Recommended Cutting Parameters:

Machinist Tip: Cermet Finishing Strategies
How to optimize the life of your TPGH110304L CN2000:
Cermet performs best at high speeds. If your finish looks "torn" or gray, **increase the spindle speed**. Cermet needs high interface temperatures to cut cleanly.
The 11-size is stronger, but cermet remains brittle. Ensure your workpiece is clamped rigidly and avoid any interrupted cuts (like cross-holes or splines).
Pro Advice: For internal boring, the 11-size TPGH is superior to smaller sizes as the increased insert thickness helps dampen harmonic vibrations, leading to better Ra values deep inside the bore.
Packaging: 10 pieces per box.

Technical FAQ & Buying Guide
Absolutely. Our CNC carbide inserts (including CNMG, WNMG, DNMG, and APMT series) are manufactured strictly adhering to international ISO/ANSI specifications. A CNMG 120408 from OYYU BEYOND will flawlessly fit any standard turning tool holder or indexable tool from major global brands like Sandvik Coromant, Kennametal, Iscar, Walter, or SECO, providing a highly cost-effective premium alternative without sacrificing tolerance or tool life.
We offer optimized CVD and PVD multi-layer coatings for different ISO material groups:
- For Carbon/Alloy Steel (ISO P): Choose our thick multi-layer CVD coated grades (e.g., Al2O3 + TiN). They provide exceptional crater wear resistance and thermal barriers during high-speed dry or wet roughing.
- For Stainless Steel (ISO M): Choose our nano-structured PVD coated grades with sharp, positive chipbreakers (like -TM or -MA). This combination prevents work hardening and effectively controls sticky chips.
The optimal cutting parameters vary depending on the workpiece hardness and operation type:
- For General Steel Turnings: Recommended cutting speed ($V_c$) ranges from 150 to 280 m/min, with a feed rate ($f$) of 0.15 to 0.45 mm/rev.
- For Stainless Steel Finishing: Recommended cutting speed ($V_c$) is 120 to 200 m/min, with a feed rate ($f$) of 0.10 to 0.25 mm/rev.Always adjust parameters based on early wear patterns: increase $V_c$ if built-up edge occurs, or reduce $V_c$ if severe flank wear is observed.
