DCMT070202 T9215 indexable insert for turning by Tungaloy — ISO rhombic, 7° clearance

The DCMT070202 T9215 is an ISO-standard rhombic indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, optimised for medium-duty steel machining and compatible with standard ISO holders and boring bars.

• ISO rhombic insert, 7° clearance angle
• T9215 CVD-coated carbide for steel
• Cylindrical hole with single-sided countersink
• Suitable for continuous and light interrupted cuts

Productive performance for medium steel machining

The DCMT070202 T9215 grade is a CVD-coated carbide insert engineered to combine wear resistance with fracture resistance, making it a reliable choice for sustained production. The CVD coating reduces adhesive wear and increases edge life, which in turn lowers tooling costs per component and reduces machine downtime. For turning tasks where continuous and light interrupted cuts are common, this cutting element offers consistent tool life and surface finish, so cycle times remain predictable and changeovers less frequent.

Geometry and compatibility that ensure repeatable results

The rhombic shape with a nominal 55° included angle and a 7° clearance angle gives stable cutting geometry and good access in shoulder and profile turning. A 0.2 mm corner radius balances edge strength with the achievable surface finish; the 2.38 mm plate thickness contributes to rigidity and heat resistance under load. Compatibility with the holder depends on form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The insert’s cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°) allows secure seating and repeatable clamping in matched ISO toolholders, which helps maintain cutting parameters and reduces the need for rework.

System thinking: insertion, clamping and productivity

This insert is intended to be used as part of an ISO insert system comprising a suitable external holder or boring bar, a supporting shim or clamping kit and replacement screws. Selecting the correct chipbreaker and grade for the workpiece and machining conditions is essential: the one-sided chipbreaker provided here supports reliable chip control in steel and contributes to stable cutting forces. Clear identification of the insert size (07) and ISO designation simplifies inventory management and tool presetting, supporting lean production practices and fast tool changes on the shop floor.

Practical advice for shop-floor integration

For best results, pair the insert with a holder dimensioned to accept ISO indexable plates of size 07 and check clamping torque against the holder manufacturer’s recommendations. The T9215 grade is particularly effective in medium-strength steels where productivity and edge security are required; in cases of heavy interruptions or hard inclusions, consider a more robust grade or reduced cutting data. The predictable behaviour of this insert reduces scrap and boosts first-pass yield, which benefits throughput and cost-efficiency.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The DCMT070202 T9215 insert is optimised for medium steel machining; the T9215 CVD-coated carbide provides good wear and fracture resistance in typical steel turning tasks.

Which holders are compatible with this insert?
Compatibility depends on form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; the insert fits standard ISO holders sized for 07 plates and is secured via the cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink.

What chip control can be expected with this insert?
The one-sided chipbreaker on this rhombic insert supports reliable chip evacuation in continuous and light interrupted cuts, improving machining stability and surface finish.

How does the 0.2 mm corner radius affect machining outcomes?
A 0.2 mm corner radius offers a compromise between edge strength and surface quality: it increases edge robustness while still delivering acceptable surface finish in general turning operations.

Is this an indexable insert for internal turning as well as external turning?
Yes, the ISO-format geometry and rhombic shape make the insert suitable for both external and internal turning operations when paired with an appropriate holder or boring bar.
