VCMT 110308 T9215 — VCMT110308-PSS indexable turning insert by Tungaloy, CVD-coated, PSS chipbreaker

A VCMT110308-PSS T9215 rhombic, ISO-format indexable insert designed for productive external and internal turning of medium steel with continuous to lightly interrupted cuts.

• CVD-coated cemented carbide grade T9215
• Optimised for medium steel turning
• Rhombic ISO form VCMT 110308
• Through-hole with 40°–60° countersink

Boosted productivity through wear-resistant coating and grade selection

The combination of a CVD-coated surface and cemented carbide substrate in this grade delivers a clear productivity advantage when machining medium steels. The T9215 grade balances high wear resistance with fracture toughness, which translates into longer effective cutting life under continuous cutting and slight interruptions. Selecting an insert with these properties reduces unplanned tool changes and supports more predictable cycle times, making process planning simpler and more economical. The PSS chipbreaker is tuned for reliable chip control in steel, helping to maintain surface quality and reduce secondary operations.

Seamless integration with existing tooling systems

Designed as an ISO-standard insert in VCMT 110308 format, this rhombic geometry ensures broad compatibility with common external holders and boring bars when the holder matches form, clearance angle, tolerance class, clamping and thickness. The insert features a through-hole with a cylindrical bore and a one-sided countersink (40°–60°), simplifying secure clamping and repeatable seating. With a nose radius of 0.8 mm, the profile provides a balance between strength and surface finish, suitable for finishing to medium-roughing cuts. Understanding these key dimensions avoids guesswork at setup and supports fast tool changes on the shop floor.

Stable chip control and predictable tool life for consistent results

The integrated PSS chipbreaker and the mechanical characteristics of the insert support stable chip formation across typical turning feeds and depths used for medium steel. This leads to fewer interruptions, improved surface integrity and reduced risk of built-up edge. For workshops pursuing process reliability, the insert’s geometry and grade provide a consistent performance window that reduces variability between batches. Where higher productivity is required, the combination of the T9215 grade and the insert’s geometry helps maintain a balance between cutting edge stability and wear resistance, ensuring repeatable outcomes on serial parts.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
This insert is designed primarily for medium steel; the T9215 carbide grade and CVD coating combine to offer wear resistance and toughness suited to continuous to lightly interrupted steel turning.

Which chipbreaker does the insert use and what is its benefit?
The insert incorporates the PSS chipbreaker, which promotes reliable chip control in steel machining, improving surface quality and reducing the risk of chip-related interruptions.

How does the insert mount to a holder?
Mounting depends on matching the ISO VCMT 110308 form, clearance angle, tolerance class, clamping and thickness; the insert has a through-hole with a cylindrical bore and a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) for secure clamping.

What advantages does the T9215 grade offer in production?
The T9215 grade offers a balance of high wear resistance and fracture toughness, enabling longer cutting life and consistent performance for productive turning of medium steels.

Is the insert suitable for interrupted cuts?
Yes; the insert is suitable for continuous and lightly interrupted cuts. For heavy interruptions, a tool and grade reassessment is recommended to ensure edge stability.
