TCGX insert Meaning

Understanding the TCGX Insert Code

T: Shape: Trigon (triangle)
C: Clearance Angle: 7 degrees (positive)
G: Tolerance: Medium tolerance is standard, though other precision tolerances might be available.
X: Chipbreaker style & Hole Configuration. This letter designates the specific chipbreaker geometry and whether the insert has a hole or not.
Numerical Digits:
- First Two Digits: Inscribed circle (IC) diameter in millimeters. To obtain the approximate inch equivalent, divide this number by 25.4.
- Next Two Digits: Thickness in millimeters. Divide by 25.4 to convert to inches.
- Last Two Digits: Corner radius in millimeters. To convert to inches, divide by 25.4.
