The Unitec TNGA160404 UK200 is a high-performance, negative triangular turning insert with UK200 grade, engineered for high wear resistance, smoother finishes and longer tool life in steel, cast iron, and alloy applications.
Unlock More Productivity with TNGA160404 UK200
In today's competitive machining world, every minute of downtime and every regrind counts. The Unitec TNGA160404 UK200 insert delivers exceptional durability, smoother surface finishes, and lower cost per part — making it a go-to choice for demanding turning operations.
Geometry: Negative, triangular insert (TNGA form), ground with a central hole for positive clamping.
Size / Dimensions: Standard ISO dimensions — IC = 9.52 mm, thickness S = 4.76 mm, nose radius options (often 0.4 mm or matched per “160404” designation). (Comparable to TaeguTec TNGA 160404 specs)
Grade: UK200 — a premium grade offering excellent wear resistance, edge stability, and resistance to thermal cracking (designed for turning applications requiring both toughness and wear strength).
Coating / Surface Treatment: Advanced multi-layer coating (PVD or variant) to reduce friction, improve oxidation resistance, and maintain edge integrity under high temperatures.
Cutting Applications: Optimized for external turning (roughing to finishing), facing, and light profiling operations. Especially effective when machining steels, alloy steels, cast iron, and similar ferrous materials.
Less Downtime: Long tool life means fewer re-setups, fewer insert changes, and fewer interruptions in your machining run.
High Wear Resistance: The UK200 grade and coated surface sustain abrasive wear, flank wear, and crater wear even under aggressive feeds.
Better Surface Finish: The precise geometry and edge preparation consistently deliver smooth finishes, reducing post-machining polishing or grinding.
Stable in Diverse Conditions: Performs reliably even under interrupted cuts, variable feeds, or unstable workholding setups.
Automotive & Auto Components – turning shafts, pins, housings
Aerospace – machining structural parts, medium tolerance turned parts
Die & Mold – finishing mold cavities and features
General Engineering & Heavy Machinery – shafts, gears, liners, general turned parts
It’s ideal for steels, alloy steels, and cast irons. The UK200 grade and coating help it resist high wear in these ferrous materials.
Yes — it is versatile. You can use it for rough passes (moderate DOC/feed) and finishing passes. The edge stability and coating help maintain performance across that range.
Because it follows the standard TNGA (ISO negative triangular) geometry with a clamping hole, it fits most standard TNGA-compatible tool holders.
Generic inserts may cut once or twice, but degrade quickly under tough conditions. The TNGA160404 UK200 gives you consistent performance, fewer interruptions, and better part quality — lowering your total cost of machining.
