TNMG 160408 T9215 triangular indexable insert for turning by Tungaloy — CVD-coated carbide for medium-steel machining

TNMG160408 is an ISO‑standard triangular turning insert designed for reliable outer and inner turning, offering a robust carbide substrate and a T9215 CVD coating for demanding production environments.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9215
• Double-sided chipbreaker for chip control
• Triangular ISO form TNMG, 16 mm
• 0.8 mm corner radius for strength

Boosted productivity through a wear-resistant CVD grade

The T9215 grade combines a CVD-coated carbide substrate with a formulation optimised for medium‑strength steel, delivering elevated wear resistance while maintaining fracture toughness. This balance enables longer tool life under continuous and lightly interrupted cuts, reducing cycle interruptions and tool changes. The result is measurable improvements in component output and machining stability for high‑volume turning applications.

Consistent fit and process stability in ISO turning systems

Designed to the ISO‑standard triangular form, the insert offers predictable seating and repeatability in compatible holders. The 0° relief angle and standard ISO geometry ensure secure clamping and consistent cutting position when matched to a suitable external holder or boring bar. Clear specification of form, relief, tolerance and thickness simplifies tooling selection and helps maintain consistent part quality across shifts.

Effective chip control and robust cutting edge for varied turning tasks

The double-sided chipbreaker and a 0.8 mm corner radius provide reliable chip formation and edge strength, which is particularly beneficial when switching between roughing and finishing passes. The chipbreaker geometry promotes short, controllable chips that ease evacuation and protect the workpiece surface, while the rounded corner extends edge life and improves resistance to edge chipping in interrupted cuts.

Practical integration and application guidance for production

As part of a system comprising an ISO insert, matching external holder or boring bar, and appropriate clamping set, this insert is made for straightforward replacement and predictable performance. The triangular shape with a cylindrical hole allows repeatable indexing; choosing the correct chipbreaker and grade for the specific workpiece material secures the best balance of productivity and surface finish. For selection support, rely on application data and holder compatibility specifications.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The Tungaloy TNMG160408 T9215 insert is formulated for medium‑strength steel machining and delivers a blend of wear resistance and toughness for productive turning.

How does the T9215 coating affect performance?
The CVD-coated T9215 provides improved abrasion resistance while retaining fracture toughness, extending tool life in continuous operations and under light interruptions.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO TNMG holders?
Yes; the insert follows ISO TNMG dimensions and locates in compatible external holders or boring bars when the holder matches form, thickness and clamping specifications.

Can the insert be indexed to use multiple edges?
The triangular TNMG geometry and central hole allow indexing of multiple cutting edges to maximise usable life before replacement.

What chip control can be expected with the double-sided breaker?
The double-sided chipbreaker produces short, manageable chips suitable for automated and manual chip evacuation, improving process reliability and surface quality.
