The Vortex TNGA160404-CBN30 turning insert is a non-regrindable, single-edge CBN insert engineered for hardened steels. It delivers consistent cutting performance with reduced maintenance, making it suitable for shops handling tough metalwork.

Designed to minimize downtime, this CBN insert eliminates the need for grinding inserts when paired with the right tooling. For best results, use double clamp turning tools or boring bars to curb vibration and extend tool life.

• Non-regrindable, single-edge design: Eliminates the need to regrind inserts, reducing downtime and maintaining consistent geometry over long runs.
• Optimized for hardened steel: Specifically engineered for machining hardened steels with CBN, delivering reliable material removal and steady performance on tough alloys.
• Recommended double clamp tools or boring bars: Using these tools minimizes vibration and extends tool life, enabling smoother cuts and longer productive intervals.

This insert supports a reliable, maintenance-friendly turning process on hardened steels. By pairing precise, durable performance with proper clamping tooling, it helps you maintain steady productivity, achieve consistent results, and reduce downtime across production runs.
