TNMG 160408 T9215 turning insert for turning – Tungaloy, CVD-coated carbide, 0.8 mm radius

A TNMG160408 T9215 insert designed for external and internal turning of medium steel, combining wear resistance and fracture security for continuous to lightly interrupted cuts

• CVD-coated carbide T9215 grade
• Optimised for medium steel machining
• 0.8 mm nose radius, 60° triangle insert
• Double-sided, cylindrical hole for secure clamping

Consistent productivity through CVD-coated carbide

The combination of CVD-coated carbide and the T9215 grade delivers high wear resistance while maintaining breakage security, which benefits production runs with extended cutting times. The coating stabilises the cutting edge at elevated temperatures and reduces flank wear, so tool-change intervals are extended and process reliability improves. This results in fewer interruptions and a measurable increase in machining uptime when turning medium steel components.

Precise geometry for repeatable clamping and surface quality

The ISO TNMG form, with a 60° included angle and 0.8 mm nose radius, is manufactured to standard tolerances so that compatibility with holders is ensured by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness. The cylindrical hole and 4.76 mm thickness provide secure location in clamping systems, reducing micro-movement under load and supporting repeatable part-to-part surface finish. For operations where dimensional consistency matters, this geometry supports low-vibration cutting and predictable finishing.

Controlled chip formation and flexible use across turning tasks

Equipped with a double-sided chipbreaker, the insert offers two usable edges and reliable chip control in a range of turning conditions. The chipformer is tuned to the grade and to typical cutting modes, which helps to evacuate swarf cleanly and maintain tool life in continuous and light interrupted cuts. In practice, the insert is part of a system that includes a matching external holder or boring bar, a backing shim/clamp set and spare screws, enabling quick replacement and minimising downtime.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited to machine?
The TNMG160408 T9215 insert is specified for medium steel machining; its T9215 CVD coating and carbide substrate balance wear resistance and toughness for productive turning.

How many usable edges does the insert provide?
The insert is double-sided with a chipbreaker on both faces, offering two usable cutting edges before indexing or replacement is required.

Does the insert require a specific holder design?
Compatibility is determined by insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; a holder matching the ISO TNMG form and the cylindrical-hole clamping is required for secure mounting.

What advantages does the CVD coating bring for turning operations?
The CVD-coated T9215 grade increases heat and wear resistance at the cutting edge, extending edge life and supporting higher cutting speeds in continuous to lightly interrupted turning.

Can the insert be used for internal turning as well as external turning?
Yes; the geometry and chip control features make the insert suitable for both external and internal turning when paired with an appropriate boring bar or internal-holder system.
