CNMG120416 T515 ISO turning insert for turning — Tungaloy

A CNMG120416 T515 ISO turning insert engineered for efficient external and internal turning of cast iron, offering reliable chip control and proven CVD-coated carbide performance.

• CVD-coated carbide for economical machining
• ISO CNMG120416 form, 80° cutting angle
• Rhombic insert, 4.76 mm thickness
• Double-sided chipbreaker with cylindrical hole

Maximise productivity with optimised coating and grade

The combination of a CVD-coated surface and a wear-resistant cemented carbide substrate makes this insert particularly suited to productive machining of cast iron. The coating increases tool life at elevated cutting speeds while the substrate maintains a stable cutting edge under interrupted cuts. This results in a measurable improvement in material removal rates and a lower replacement frequency compared with uncoated alternatives, supporting continuous production and reduced machining costs.

Precise geometry that simplifies toolholder matching

Designed to the ISO CNMG form, the insert features an 80° cutting angle and a 1.6 mm corner radius, together with a 4.76 mm plate thickness and 12 mm size, which ensure consistent engagement and predictable cutting forces. The rhombic shape and the presence of a cylindrical hole support secure clamping and interchangeability between compatible ISO turning holders. Users gain repeatable positioning and predictable performance, reducing setup times and improving process reliability.

Reliable chip control and application flexibility

A double-sided chipbreaker tailored to the T515 grade delivers controlled chip formation for facing and turning operations, which eases swarf management and helps protect the workpiece surface finish. The grade is optimised for economic machining of cast iron, balancing toughness for interrupted cuts with good edge stability. Combined with the ISO geometry and robust carbide composition, this insert is suitable for a broad range of turning tasks where consistent results and uptime are priorities.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The CNMG120416 T515 insert is designed primarily for economical machining of cast iron, with the T515 grade optimised to balance edge stability and toughness for interrupted cuts.

Which toolholders are compatible with this insert?
The insert conforms to the ISO CNMG form; compatibility depends on holder form, clearance angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness — the CNMG geometry matches standard ISO turning holders.

How does the CVD coating benefit machining performance?
The CVD-coated cemented carbide of this insert increases wear resistance at higher cutting speeds, extending tool life and maintaining cutting-edge integrity during continuous and interrupted turning operations.
