Tungaloy Updates TetraMini-Cut Grooving Series

Tungaloy expands its TetraMini-Cut, a grooving series featuring 4-cornered inserts, to include the TCS18 insert line for improved efficiency in grooving applications.

TetraMini-Cut incorporates an economical, 4-cornered compact insert, with a unique clamping system delivering superior indexing repeatability, ensuring high grooving accuracy as well as tool life stability.

The 3D geometry of the new TCS18 insert is designed to provide impressive chip control to ensure light cutting action. The high-aluminum, multi-layer coating of the AH7025 grade improves coating hardness and substrate-coating adhesion properties, achieving exceptional machining stability and efficiency in demanding grooving applications.

Combined with the existing TCG18 and TCP18 inserts with ground-to-shape chipbreakers, the new TCS18 insert offers an extensive range of grooving inserts to address the various demands of small-part and general grooving for improved productivity.
