What TCMT 110204 tells you on the shop floor
60° corner: general turning, three corners (six edges if double-sided negative); not as strong as C and W.
Positive insert (7°): lower cutting forces and less chatter. For finishing, boring, thin-walled parts and lighter machines.
Pressed, medium tolerance: economical, fine for roughing and where you do not need repeatability to a few hundredths of a mm at every insert change.
Small radius: lower forces and chatter, good finish at low feed.
