WNMG080416-TM T515 — ISO trigon turning insert, CVD-coated carbide, 1.6 mm radius (Tungaloy)

The WNMG080416-TM T515 is an ISO trigon insert designed for efficient external and internal turning, optimised for the economic machining of cast iron in production and job-shop environments.

• ISO trigon insert for turning applications
• CVD-coated carbide grade T515
• Cylindrical hole for secure clamping

Increased productivity when machining cast iron

The combination of the T515 specification and a CVD-coated carbide substrate promotes stable cutting conditions and extended tool life when processing cast iron. The coating enhances wear resistance and heat tolerance, which translates into longer uninterrupted runs and fewer indexings. For production-oriented turning where cycle time and predictability matter, this grade is tuned to deliver a favourable balance of economy and performance while maintaining surface finish and dimensional stability.

Predictable clamping and geometry for repeatable results

A trigon profile with an included 80° angle and 0° clearance gives a defined tool–workpiece interaction that supports consistent cutting forces. The insert’s 1.6 mm radius and 4.76 mm thickness contribute to rigidity and edge strength, while the cylindrical hole ensures secure fastening in ISO-compatible toolholders. Clear, standardised geometry reduces setup variation: compatibility depends on insert form, clearance, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness, so holders and clamping sets should be selected accordingly to achieve repeatable outcomes.

System integration and selection guidance for reliable results

This ISO insert integrates into a classic turning system comprising an ISO indexable insert, a suitable external holder or boring bar, backing/clamp sets and replacement screws. The chipbreaker TM is intended for interrupted and stable cuts; matching chipbreaker and grade to workpiece material and fixturing stability yields the best economy. Where process security and surface quality are critical, pair the insert with a toolholder that meets the dimensional tolerance and clamping requirements, and follow tool‑maker guidelines for maximum benefit. The WNMG080416-TM T515 therefore offers a balance of productivity, robustness and process reliability for turning applications.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited for?
The WNMG080416-TM T515 from Tungaloy is specified for the economic machining of cast iron and performs well in turning operations where stable chip formation is required.

How does the chipbreaker TM affect performance?
The chipbreaker TM on the insert controls chip formation for interrupted and steady cuts; when combined with the T515 grade it supports reliable machining and reduced risk of edge damage.

Which holder characteristics determine compatibility?
Compatibility with the insert depends on holder form, clearance angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness; the cylindrical hole and trigon shape require an ISO-compatible clamping system.

Is the edge geometry suitable for finishing operations?
With a 1.6 mm radius and 80° included angle, the insert provides edge strength for stable cutting and can achieve good surface quality when cutting parameters and holder rigidity are appropriate.

Can this insert be used for internal turning?
Yes, the insert is suitable for both external and internal turning; select an appropriate boring bar or internal holder that matches the insert dimensions and clamping style.
