Tungaloy RCMT0602MO-61 TH10 Insert
Non-Ferrous Specialist | 61 Finishing Breaker | Sub-Micron TH10 Grade
What is the best round insert for aluminum and copper turning?
The Tungaloy RCMT0602MO-61 TH10 is a high-performance uncoated carbide turning insert specifically engineered for non-ferrous materials. Utilizing the TH10 sub-micron grade, this insert provides exceptional hardness and edge sharpness, preventing the "built-up edge" (BUE) common when machining sticky materials like aluminum or copper. The 61 chipbreaker offers a highly positive rake angle for effortless finishing, ensuring a mirror-like surface finish. This Japan-made CNC turning insert is the professional choice for profiling and high-speed finishing where precision and sharpness are paramount.
Ultra-Sharp TH10 Grade
An uncoated sub-micron carbide grade with high wear resistance. Ideal for high-speed machining of aluminum alloys and cast iron.
Anti-Sticking Geometry
The highly polished surface and sharp edge minimize friction, significantly reducing material adhesion on the tool tip.
Round Edge Strength
The RCMT round shape provides excellent structural integrity for complex profiling and 3D contouring applications.

Global Verified Reviews
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Mirror Finish on Aluminum" - J. Peters, USA
"The TH10 grade is incredibly sharp. I'm getting a perfect mirror finish on 6061 aluminum without any edge build-up."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Excellent for Copper" - Tanaka M., Japan
"Sticky copper is usually a nightmare, but these inserts cut through it like butter. Very clean chip breaking."
⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Very Sharp Edge" - L. Rossi, Italy
"Used for complex profiling. Dimensional stability is great and the edge stays sharp for a long time in non-ferrous runs."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Best for CNC Brass" - G. Schmidt, Germany
"Consistent quality from Tungaloy Japan. Fast shipping and the inserts perform exactly as expected."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Original & Reliable" - A. Lim, Singapore
"Authentic Tungaloy. The TH10 sub-micron carbide is noticeably tougher than generic uncoated brands."
8. FAQ - Technical Support
Q: Can I use TH10 on Steel?
A: No. TH10 is an uncoated carbide grade intended for non-ferrous metals and cast iron. Machining steel will cause rapid crater wear due to heat.
Q: What is the benefit of the round shape (RCMT)?
A: Round inserts provide the strongest possible cutting edge and allow for high-feed profiling in 3D contouring tasks.
Q: Is this insert compatible with standard holders?
A: Yes, it fits any tool holder designed for ISO RCMT0602 inserts, such as SRDCN or SRGCR holders.
Expert Insight: The TH10 Advantage
In non-ferrous CNC turning, the TH10 grade is king. Its sub-micron grain structure allows for an incredibly sharp edge that "slices" rather than "tears" the material. This is critical for aluminum and copper to prevent work hardening and surface tearing, ensuring the highest precision in every pass.
