Grade H6310 cemented carbide indexable insert – applications and construction
double-sided 60° triangle with a hole and chip breaker
The TNMG 220404 turning insert is a double-sided, triangular indexable insert made of H6310 grade cemented carbide, designed for turning steel and stainless steel. Shape T, an equilateral triangle with a 60° corner angle, facilitates access to the workpiece contour during longitudinal turning and facing. The negative geometry with a 0° clearance angle allows both sides of the insert to be used — a total of six cutting edges. Size 22 corresponds to an inscribed circle IC of 12.7 mm (1/2 inch), so the insert is compatible with tool holders and boring bars with a size 22 triangular pocket. The nose radius rε 0.4 mm supports precision machining and finishing at low feeds, producing low surface roughness. The hole with a double-sided chip breaker (type G according to ISO 1832) controls chip flow and breaking.
Key advantages of the H6310 cemented carbide insert
- Six cutting edges — 3 corners on each of the two sides reduce the cost per cutting edge compared with single-sided inserts.
- Grade H6310 for ISO groups P and M — general-purpose PVD-coated carbide: steel (P20-P40) and stainless steel (M20-M40), and occasionally cast iron.
- Corner radius rε 0.4 mm — a smaller corner for precision machining and finishing at low feeds with a good surface finish.
- Tolerance class M, with an inscribed circle IC tolerance of ±0.08 mm, ensures repeatable cutting edge positioning after indexing the insert in its pocket.
- Dimensions according to ISO 1832: edge length 22 mm, IC 12.7 mm (1/2″), thickness 4.76 mm — fit holders with a 22 pocket.
- A 60° corner angle produces lower radial forces than a 80° corner — less vibration on slender workpieces.
Applications and parameter selection for the triangular insert
The TNMG 220404 insert (also written without a space as tnmg220404) is suitable for finish turning shafts, bushings, and flanges made of structural steels, as well as stainless steel components. These inserts are used for external and internal turning and are mounted in holders with a triangular 22 pocket. Calculate spindle speed using n = 1000·Vc/(π·D): for a shaft diameter of 50 mm at Vc = 300 m/min, the result is approximately 1910 rpm. The smaller nose radius of 0.4 mm works best at feed rates of 0.1–0.2 mm/rev in finishing operations where dimensional accuracy and surface finish are critical. At greater depths of cut, the insert can also handle semi-finishing, although the small nose radius limits the maximum feed rate. For stainless steels, maintain a cutting speed of 80–260 m/min and a constant feed rate to prevent work hardening of the material being cut. Flood cooling with emulsion removes heat from the cutting edge and extends its life. Indexable inserts in grade H6310 are supplied by the Korean brand Horn.
Grade H6310 is not intended for steels hardened above 45 HRC — for hard turning, select the version TNMG 220404 CBN with a cubic boron nitride cutting edge.

Frequently asked questions about the TNMG 220404 insert
use, turning tool selection, and turning parameters
Six — the triangle has 3 corners per side, and the negative geometry (0° clearance angle) allows both sides of the insert to be used. Once an edge becomes dull, simply rotate the insert in its pocket without changing the holder.
Holders with a 22 triangular pocket (IC 12.7 mm): for external turning TTJNR/L and MTJNR/L (entering angle 93°), TTFNR/L and TTGNR/L (90°) and neutral holders TTENN and MTENN (60°) with cross sections of 25×25–40×40 mm; for internal turning, the inserts fit boring bars S32T–S50V with a TTUNR/L, MTUNR/L or MTQNR/L designation suffix.
Only in corner radius: 0.4 mm is used for finishing at low feed rates, 0.8 mm is the general-purpose version, and 1.2 mm is selected for roughing at feed rates up to 0.4–0.5 mm/rev. The other dimensions (IC 12.7 mm, thickness 4.76 mm) are identical.
Yes — grade H6310 covers group ISO M20-M40. Maintain a cutting speed of 80–260 m/min, a constant feed, and continuous emulsion cooling: austenitic steel conducts heat poorly and work-hardens when cutting is too slow.
