Kyocera TPMT160304HQ CA525 – Turning Insert (10 pcs Finishing to Medium, HQ Chipbreaker)
The Kyocera TPMT160304HQ CA525 is a positive-type triangular turning insert designed for finishing to medium operations in steel machining. Supplied in a pack of 10 inserts, it features the durable CA525 CVD-coated carbide grade, engineered to deliver an optimal balance of wear resistance and toughness. The HQ chipbreaker geometry ensures sharp cutting action, smooth chip evacuation, and stable machining across various feed rates and depths of cut. With excellent edge strength and thermal resistance, this insert provides consistent performance and extended tool life under both continuous and light interrupted cutting conditions.
Key Features & Benefits
- CA525 Grade: Reliable, all-purpose CVD-coated carbide optimized for steel turning, offering superior wear resistance and toughness.
- HQ Chipbreaker: Promotes smooth chip formation, reduced cutting forces, and superior surface finish for finishing to medium-depth cuts.
- Optimized Coating Structure: Multilayer CVD coating with enhanced adhesion and heat resistance for improved edge integrity.
- Stable Machining: Consistent cutting performance in wet or dry operations with excellent edge stability under light interruptions.
- Extended Tool Life: Outstanding wear control and reduced crater wear in medium-speed steel turning applications.
- Pack Quantity: Supplied as a pack of 10 inserts for production efficiency and convenience.
Applications
- Finishing to medium turning of carbon steels and alloy steels (e.g., S45C, SCM415, SCM440).
