WNMG080412 T515 trigon turning insert, CVD-coated carbide, 80° cutting angle — Tungaloy

The WNMG080412 T515 is an ISO-standard trigon insert for economical external and internal turning, optimised for the machining of cast iron with predictable chip formation.

• WNMG 080412 geometry for stable cutting
• CVD-coated carbide T515 for cast iron
• Double-sided chipbreaker for process reliability
• Cylindrical hole, compatible with ISO holders

Increased productivity through optimised grade and coating

The combination of a CVD-coated carbide substrate and the T515 grade offers a balance between wear resistance and cost-effectiveness for cast iron turning. This specification is designed to maintain cutting-edge stability at moderate to high cutting speeds, which reduces the frequency of tool changes and supports longer uninterrupted production runs. The coating improves resistance to abrasive wear while preserving toughness, yielding a dependable performance in continuous operations.

Secure fit and straightforward integration into existing tool systems

As an ISO-standard insert in trigon form with a cylindrical hole, compatibility with a suitable toolholder depends on geometry, relief angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness. The 80° cutting angle and 4.76 mm thickness provide a robust mounting interface, while the 1.2 mm corner radius supports a good compromise between strength and surface finish. These measurable parameters simplify holder selection and setup, minimising trial-and-error and supporting repeatable results across different machines.

Stable chip control for reliable surface quality

The double-sided chipbreaker is tuned to encourage controlled chip formation during both external and internal turning of cast iron, helping to avoid long, stringy chips and reducing the risk of surface damage. Improved chip control contributes directly to consistent part quality and fewer interruptions for chip clearance. For operations with intermittent cuts or variable rigidity, the insert’s chipbreaking geometry supports predictable behaviour and contributes to process stability.

Economical operation and practical logistics

Being indexable and double-sided, the insert effectively doubles the number of usable cutting edges compared with a single-edged option, which lowers tooling cost per component and reduces changeover downtime. The ISO designation and clear dimensional data facilitate inventory management and spare-part planning. Backed by Tungaloy manufacturing standards and available under SKU 6733841-Tungaloy, this insert is suited to production environments seeking reproducible performance and straightforward tool management.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The WNMG080412 T515 is optimised for the economic machining of cast iron; the CVD-coated T515 grade supports good wear resistance and chip control during cast iron turning.

How does the insert mount to a holder?
Mounting depends on the holder form and clamping method; the trigon shape with a cylindrical hole and 80° geometry matches ISO-compatible external holders designed for WNMG-style inserts.

Can it be used for interrupted cuts?
Yes, the double-sided chipbreaker and robust carbide grade provide stability for intermittent cuts, though selection should consider workpiece rigidity and cutting parameters.

How many usable cutting edges are available per insert?
This insert is double-sided, providing multiple cutting edges; careful indexing extends tool life and improves cost efficiency under production conditions.

How can the part be identified for reordering?
Use the label WNMG080412 T515 or SKU 6733841-Tungaloy when reordering to ensure the correct CVD-coated grade and geometry are supplied.
