WNMG060412 T5115 — indexable turning insert for turning by Tungaloy

The WNMG060412 T5115 is an ISO-format indexable turning insert designed for efficient external and internal turning, optimised as a universal grade for cast iron machining.

• CVD-coated cemented carbide for high wear resistance
• Universal grade optimised for cast iron
• Double-sided chipbreaker for consistent chip control
• Trigon form with cylindrical hole for ISO holders

Consistent chip control and long tool life for cast iron turning

The design combines a CVD-coated cemented carbide substrate with a universal cutting grade that balances wear resistance and edge stability, delivering predictable tool life in cast iron applications. The insert’s double-sided chipbreaker ensures consistent chip formation and evacuation, which reduces the risk of built-up edge and unstable cut conditions. In ISO-format turning setups the result is a more stable process, fewer interruptions for tool changes and a reliable surface finish on turned faces.

Secure mounting and straightforward holder compatibility

Compatibility with a toolholder depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening and overall size and thickness. The trigonal plate with a cylindrical hole and a standardised geometry integrates cleanly into ISO external holders and boring bars. The 4.76 mm plate thickness and defined relief angle support repeatable clamping and reduce setup variation. These mechanical characteristics simplify tool inventory management and lower the risk of incorrect assembly during rapid production changeovers.

Economic productivity through reversible indexing and universal grade

The double-sided nature of the insert provides two cutting edges per index position, effectively extending in-service life before disposal. The universal T5115 grade is developed for productive machining of cast iron, offering a compromise between edge robustness and wear resistance that suits mixed-batch production. This combination can reduce tooling costs per component while maintaining consistent part quality, making it an efficient choice for batch and continuous turning operations.

Practical selection and process guidance for workshops

For external and internal turning, choose the T5115 grade and the double-sided chipbreaker when machining cast iron where a balance of surface integrity and tool life is required. When selecting a holder, verify form fit, the relief angle of 0°, tolerance class and clamping compatibility to ensure secure fixation. For less rigid setups or interrupted cuts, opt for more robust clamping and reduced cutting depths to preserve edge stability. Technical consultation is available for matching holder geometry, insert grade and chip control to the specific machining task.
