CCMT 060204 T515 turning insert by Tungaloy — CVD-coated carbide, for cast-iron turning

CCMT060204 T515 is an ISO rhombic turning insert designed for economical external and internal turning of cast iron, compatible with standard ISO holders and clamping systems.

• CVD-coated carbide T515 for cast iron machining
• Rhombic 80° insert geometry for versatile turning
• 0.4 mm corner radius for precise edge control
• Cylindrical hole with one-sided countersink

High-efficiency cutting with a wear-resistant CVD coating

The CCMT060204 T515 indexable insert is built on a carbide substrate with a CVD coating that promotes stable wear behaviour during continuous machining of cast iron. The CVD layer increases resistance to abrasive wear while maintaining cutting-edge integrity, which translates into longer in-service life and lower tooling costs per component. For users unfamiliar with coatings: chemical vapour deposition (CVD) applies a thin, hard layer that improves thermal resistance and reduces substrate degradation at elevated cutting temperatures. The result is a balance of productivity and process reliability for standard and demanding turning operations.

Geometry that supports stability and surface quality

The insert’s rhombic shape with an 80° included angle and 7° relief provides stable support in the pocket and enables a positive cutting approach for a range of turning tasks. The 0.4 mm corner radius gives a compromise between edge strength and achievable surface finish, while the 2.38 mm plate thickness contributes to rigidity during interrupted cuts. The cylindrical hole with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) ensures secure clamping with compatible screws and underlay, reducing the risk of vibration-related edge chipping. These geometric choices mean fewer rejects and a more predictable surface quality on turned components.

System compatibility and practical productivity advantages

The insert forms part of an ISO-standard system comprising the insert itself, a suitable external holder or boring bar, and a shim/clamping set. The single-sided chipbreaker design assists chip control when machining cast iron grades, helping to avoid entanglement and to direct chips away from the cutting zone. When combined with an appropriately selected holder and cutting parameters, this leads to shorter cycle times and reduced machine downtime for changeovers. For production planning, using standardised ISO inserts streamlines inventory and makes tool replacement straightforward, supporting repeatable results across shifts.
