TPMR160304 T9215 ISO triangular turning insert by Tungaloy — CVD-coated carbide, 60° form

TPMR160304 T9215 is an ISO‑standard triangular turning insert designed for reliable external and internal turning of medium steels, delivering wear resistance and fracture toughness for continuous to slightly interrupted cuts.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9215
• 60° triangular ISO form for turning
• 0.4 mm corner radius for fine profiles
• Single-sided chipbreaker, 11° relief angle

Improved productivity for medium-steel turning

The insert combines a CVD-coated surface with a cemented carbide substrate to provide elevated wear resistance while maintaining fracture toughness under stable cutting conditions. This makes it particularly suited to medium-steel applications where operators require steady metal removal rates and reproducible tool life. The coating reduces built-up edge and helps maintain a consistent cutting edge, so machining cycles remain efficient and predictable, which in turn supports higher throughput and lower tooling costs per component.

Geometry and edge form for consistent part finish

A 60° triangular geometry offers versatile approach angles for both external and internal turning operations. The 0.4 mm corner radius supports the creation of fine radii and controlled transitions, improving surface integrity without excessive cutting forces. The 11° relief angle and single-sided chipbreaker are optimised to control chip formation during continuous to slightly interrupted cuts; this reduces vibration and promotes steady contact between insert and workpiece, resulting in more consistent dimensional accuracy and repeatable surface quality.

Robust grade for stable machining and longer tool life

Grade T9215 is CVD-coated and engineered as a first choice for medium steel machining where a balance of wear resistance and fracture protection is required. Its composition and coating chemistry enable longer tool life under sustained operation and help mitigate flank wear in high-volume production. For manufacturers aiming to reduce downtime and improve process reliability, this grade supports predictable replacement intervals and contributes to overall process cost savings.

Compatibility, handling and application guidance

The insert is ISO‑designated and intended to fit compatible triangular holders; compatibility depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. With a plate size of 16 and a plate thickness of 3.18 mm, the insert is supplied without a hole and with a one-sided chipbreaker — select a matching holder and clamping set to ensure correct seating and torque. For best results in turning steel, match feed and speed to the stability of the setup and the specific alloy; the combination of geometry and CVD-coated carbide grade supports both steady finishing passes and productive roughing when process parameters are tuned.

FAQ

What materials is this insert designed to machine?
This TPMR160304 T9215 insert is optimised for medium steel machining; the CVD‑coated carbide grade T9215 provides wear resistance and fracture protection for stable steel turning operations.

How does the 0.4 mm corner radius affect the finish?
The 0.4 mm corner radius produces controlled transitions and finer radii on turned parts, improving surface integrity while keeping cutting forces moderate when used in the appropriate feed range.

Which holders are compatible with this ISO insert?
Compatibility depends on holder form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening and size; select an ISO‑compatible triangular holder that matches the TPMR160304 geometry and a suitable clamp set for secure seating.

Is this insert suitable for interrupted cuts?
Grade T9215 is designed for continuous to slightly interrupted cuts; it combines wear resistance with sufficient fracture toughness for light interruptions, but heavy interruptions require a different approach or grade.

What is the manufacturer article number and brand for ordering?
The product is listed under article number 6774013 and the brand is Tungaloy; the manufacturer SKU is TUN6774013 for ordering and reference.
