Tungaloy Introduces STV-Type Insert for Enhanced Internal Grooving Operations!

Tungaloy-NTK America Inc. has expanded its TungShortCut internal grooving tool line with the introduction of the STV-type insert, designed to enhance internal profiling and machining of complex shapes and narrow areas. The TungShortCut series now offers a 9mm short-length insert with enhanced capabilities for challenging grooving tasks.

The STV-type insert features a 35-degree corner angle, allowing it to handle wall and bottom machining in narrow grooving areas, a common limitation for traditional V-shaped ISO inserts. This makes it ideal for small-diameter internal groove bottom and profiling applications, with a minimum machining diameter of 12mm.

Equipped with the JS-style chipbreaker, the STV insert optimizes chip control during variable depth-of-cut profiling operations, ensuring smoother and more efficient processes. The insert is offered in the PVD-coated grade AH725, known for its long-lasting performance across a broad range of materials.

With the addition of the STV-type insert, the TungShortCut series now provides a more versatile solution for machining in narrow and complex areas, enhancing productivity and precision in industries where such tasks were previously challenging. This development expands Tungaloy’s ability to support demanding internal grooving and profiling applications.
