Tungaloy TNGG160408R-P TH10 Turning Insert
Uncoated Micrograin TH10 | Precision -P Chipbreaker | 0.8mm Right-Hand Radius
What is the best uncoated insert for high-gloss aluminum finishing?
The Tungaloy TNGG160408R-P TH10 is a premium right-hand uncoated carbide insert designed for precision finishing of non-ferrous materials such as aluminum alloys, copper, and brass. Engineered with the TH10 micrograin grade, it offers an exceptionally sharp cutting edge that prevents built-up edge (BUE) and ensures a superior surface Ra value. The 0.8mm corner radius (08) provides enhanced edge strength for stable finishing at higher feed rates. 100% Made in Japan, this insert is the industrial choice for CNC operators requiring mirror-like finishes and long-term dimensional stability in non-ferrous applications.
TH10 Micrograin Carbide
An uncoated grade with high hardness and excellent wear resistance. The micrograin structure allows for an ultra-sharp periphery, essential for clean cuts in gummy non-ferrous metals.
-P Precision Breaker
Specifically designed for finishing. It effectively controls chips at light depths of cut, preventing surface damage and ensuring a scratch-free workpiece.
0.8mm Robust Radius
The 0.8mm radius offers a perfect balance between finishing quality and edge durability, allowing for increased feed rates without sacrificing surface integrity.

Recommended Cutting Parameters (TH10 Uncoated)
-
Cutting Speed (Vc): 150 - 600 m/min (Non-Ferrous Optimized)
-
Feed Rate (f): 0.10 - 0.25 mm/rev (For Mirror Surface)
-
Depth of Cut (ap): 0.2 - 1.2 mm
*B2B Pro-Tip: For aluminum with high silicon content, maintain high cutting speeds to reduce edge buildup. TH10 is exceptionally sharp—handle with care during installation.*
4. Primary Applications
- High-precision finishing of Aluminum alloys (6061, 7075).
- Turning of Brass, Bronze, and high-conductivity Copper parts.
- Machining of non-metallic polymers and plastics.
- Finishing passes on large non-ferrous shafts where Ra is critical.
5. Tool Compatibility
Fits all standard TN** 1604 pockets. Optimized for WTJNR or MTJNR Right-hand external tool holders and S-WTJNR internal boring bars.

Global CNC Professional Feedback
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Perfect for 6061 Finishing" - Robert T., USA
"The TH10 grade is incredibly sharp. We achieved a mirror finish on our aluminum housings with no built-up edge."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Reliable and Stable" - Klaus M., Germany
"Original Japan Tungaloy. The 0.8mm radius is strong enough for light roughing too, but the finish it leaves is the real winner."
⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Great Chip Flow" - Tan L., Vietnam
"No more bird-nesting on our brass parts. The -P breaker works perfectly. Fast shipping from the Beyond team."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Genuine Product" - Luca S., Italy
"Exactly as described. Authentic factory boxes and high-precision performance for our CNC shop."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Expert Support" - Arjun V., India
"The technical parameters provided were spot on. Best source for genuine Tungaloy in the region."
8. FAQ - Precision Tooling Support
Q: Can I use TH10 on carbon steel or stainless?
A: We do not recommend TH10 for steel. It is an uncoated grade meant for non-ferrous metals. For steel, please choose GH110 or GH330 coated grades.
Q: Does this work in a Left-hand holder?
A: No. This is a Right-hand (R) insert. It must be paired with a Right-hand tool holder (WTJNR) to ensure the chipbreaker faces the workpiece correctly.
Tech Tip: Uncoated Carbide Care
To maintain the ultra-sharp edge of **TH10**, ensure stable clamping and avoid intermittent cuts. High coolant pressure is recommended to flush away aluminum chips immediately. **Tungaloy Japan** - Precision in every cut.
