TNMG 160404 T9215 Turning insert (TNMG160404) — Tungaloy, ISO triangular, 60°

The TNMG160404 T9215 is a triangular ISO turning insert designed for external and internal turning, offering robust wear resistance and fracture toughness for medium steel machining.

• CVD-coated carbide for high wear resistance
• Triangular 60° geometry with 0.4 mm radius
• Double-sided chipbreaker for reliable chip control
• ISO-compatible with cylindrical-hole mounting

Boost productivity in medium steel with a durable grade

The T9215 grade combines CVD-coated carbide construction with a balanced mix of wear resistance and toughness to support continuous to slightly interrupted cutting in medium steel. This composition reduces flank wear and extends edge life, which translates directly into fewer tool changes and more productive machining cycles. The insert’s specification as a grade for middle-range steel workpieces means machinists can expect consistent performance under typical workshop conditions, with the option to adapt cutting data for higher material removal rates where machine rigidity permits.

Precise geometry and secure mounting for repeatable results

Designed to the ISO turning insert standard, the triangular 60° geometry and 0.4 mm corner radius deliver a predictable cutting line and a controlled engagement with the workpiece, improving dimensional stability and surface finish. The insert features a cylindrical hole and a plate thickness of 4.76 mm, ensuring secure mounting in compatible holders; compatibility is determined by holder form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. These standardised interfaces make tool changeover straightforward and support reproducible set-ups across different machines and fixtures.

Effective chip control and simple handling to reduce downtime

A double-sided chipbreaker provides dependable chip formation and evacuation for typical turning operations, helping maintain cutting stability and the quality of the machined surface. As an indexable insert, it permits rapid rotation or replacement of worn edges, limiting unproductive downtime and simplifying stock management. The insert’s balance of edge strength and wear behaviour supports a reliable process window, while modest corner radii help to protect the cutting edge during approach and exit, especially in applications with slight interruptions.
