TCMT 110304 T9215 – Tungaloy indexable turning insert for turning

A TCMT110304 T9215 indexable insert designed for medium-steel turning, offering a durable CVD-coated carbide grade for continuous to light interrupted cuts.

• CVD-coated carbide for high wear resistance
• Optimised for medium steel turning
• 7° relief angle for stable cutting
• Triangular 60° form with 0.4 mm radius

Consistent performance for medium-steel turning

The T9215 grade is a CVD-coated carbide formulated to combine wear resistance with fracture toughness, making it a dependable choice for productive turning of medium-strength steel. The cutting material is tuned to endure the thermal and mechanical loads of continuous machining and to withstand occasional interruptions without premature chipping. By selecting a grade engineered for this material group, machining cycles remain consistent and tool-change frequency is reduced, which supports predictable manufacturing throughput.

Geometry and edge form that support stable cuts

The triangular plate with a 60° included angle and a 0.4 mm cutting-edge radius delivers a balanced edge for general turning tasks where moderate strength and surface finish are required. The 7° relief angle reduces rubbing on the flank and helps maintain dimensional accuracy during longer cuts. The insert’s central hole — a cylindrical aperture with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) — provides secure clamping in compatible holders while enabling quick index changes that keep setup times short.

Productivity benefits and cost-of-operation impact

Using an insert with a CVD-coated surface and robust substrate translates into longer tool life under standard feeds and speeds, which improves the cost-per-component ratio. Fewer interruptions for insert replacement lower machine idle time and labour costs, and reliable edge integrity reduces scrappage. For operations prioritising throughput, the combination of the grade’s wear resistance and its fracture toughness supports higher metal removal rates while maintaining acceptable surface quality.

Practical system compatibility and selection guidance

This ISO-format insert fits into standard indexable turning systems; correct matching depends on holder form, relief angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness. The system typically comprises the ISO insert, a corresponding external holder or boring bar, a shim/clamp kit and replacement screws. Choose the single-sided chipbreaker variant that matches the workpiece material and stability of your setup to optimise chip control and tool life.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The T9215 grade is optimised for medium-steel machining; the TCMT110304 insert provides a balance of wear resistance and toughness suited to continuous and light interrupted turning of steel.

How does the chipbreaker affect cutting performance?
The single-sided chipbreaker on this insert assists chip control for typical turning feeds in medium-steel applications, improving evacuation and reducing the risk of built-up edge.

Can the insert be used in interrupted cuts?
Yes, the CVD-coated carbide substrate and the grade’s fracture resistance make the insert suitable for continuous turning and light interrupted cuts; for heavy interruptions, consider a different chamfer or a more robust grade.

What does the central hole and countersink mean for clamping?
The cylindrical hole with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) enables secure mechanical clamping in compatible ISO holders, allowing reliable repeatable positioning and fast index changes.

Which holder geometry is required for correct fit?
Compatibility is determined by holder form, relief angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness; pairing the insert with the matching ISO external holder or boring bar ensures correct seating and performance.
