CNMG 120408 T9215 — Tungaloy indexable turning insert (ISO, rhombic)

CNMG 120408 T9215 is an ISO-standard rhombic indexable insert for turning, designed for medium-steel machining with a balance of wear resistance and fracture toughness.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9215
• Optimised for medium steel machining
• Rhombic ISO insert, 80° geometry
• Double-sided chipbreaker, economical use
• 0.8 mm corner radius with cylindrical hole

Durable cutting performance for medium-steel turning

The insert’s CVD-coated carbide substrate in grade T9215 is engineered for a combination of high wear resistance and mechanical toughness, which supports longer tool life under continuous and slightly interrupted cuts. This leads to fewer index changes and steadier machining cycles, reducing downtime and improving throughput. The insert form conforms to ISO-standard dimensional and tolerance conventions so that compatibility with suitable holders is straightforward, provided the holder matches on form, relief angle, fastening method, size and thickness.

Stable geometry and secure clamping for predictable results

The 80° geometry and rhombic shape give the insert versatile engagement for external turning and facing where rigidity is required. A 0° relief angle and the 0.8 mm corner radius help to distribute cutting forces and protect the cutting edge during interrupted cuts, while the double-sided chipbreaker offers two indexable cutting edges per side to maximise economy. The insert is supplied with a cylindrical hole for positive clamping and a plate thickness of 4.76 mm, contributing to secure seat and repeatable performance in ISO-compatible toolholders.

Practical benefits: process reliability and inventory efficiency

Using this indexable insert in production supports consistent surface quality and predictable tool-change intervals, which makes planning tool life and replenishment simpler. The double-sided, ISO-format design reduces cost per cutting edge and eases inventory management across a range of turning tasks. For detailed machining parameters, holder compatibility or grade selection, Metav Werkzeuge’s technical advisors can provide tailored data and help match the T9215 grade to specific steels and cutting routines to optimise cycle time and component quality.

FAQ

What material types is this insert suited for? This CNMG120408 T9215 Tungaloy indexable insert is optimised for medium-steel machining and combines wear resistance and toughness for productive turning of steel components.

How many usable cutting edges does the insert provide? The CNMG insert with a double-sided chipbreaker offers multiple indexable edges; the dual-sided design increases economy by providing more usable edges per insert.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO toolholders? Compatibility is governed by ISO dimensions and the holder’s matching of form, relief angle, fastening and size; the CNMG120408 follows ISO conventions to simplify selection of an appropriate holder.

What are the key dimensional values to check for holder matching? Important values include the insert size (12 mm), thickness (4.76 mm), corner radius (0.8 mm) and the 80° geometry; these determine seat and clamping fit in ISO-compatible holders.

How does the T9215 grade influence machining performance? T9215 is a CVD-coated carbide grade designed to balance wear resistance and fracture toughness, offering consistent tool life and process security for continuous to lightly interrupted cuts on medium steels.
