DCMT070208 T9215 indexable turning insert — CVD‑coated carbide, 0.8 mm radius (Tungaloy)

DCMT070208 T9215 is a rhombic ISO turning insert designed for medium steel machining and general external and internal turning applications

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9215
• ISO rhombic insert DCMT070208
• 0.8 mm corner radius for accuracy
• Single-sided chipbreaker, with hole

Increased productivity through wear-resistant coating and grade

The CVD-coated carbide grade T9215 delivers a balance of wear resistance and fracture toughness, making it well suited to continuous and lightly interrupted cuts typical of medium steel machining. This results in fewer tool changes and more predictable cycle times, which lifts process throughput and reduces per‑part cost. The coating improves thermal stability at elevated cutting speeds, helping to maintain cutting edge geometry and consistent surface finish over longer runs.

Precision geometry and straightforward ISO compatibility

A rhombic form with a 0.8 mm corner radius and 7° clearance enables stable cutting and accurate profile control in many turning operations. The insert conforms to ISO dimensions, so compatibility with holders depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness — the typical ISO system components are insert, external holder or boring bar, shim/clamp set and replacement screws. The DCMT070208 geometry provides straightforward interchangeability within ISO tooling systems and supports repeatable set‑ups on production equipment.

Controlled chips and reliable edge life for consistent results

The single-sided chipbreaker is engineered for effective chip control when machining steels; it promotes short, controllable chips that evacuate reliably from the cutting zone. As a result, surface quality improves and the risk of built‑up edge or chip re‑cutting is reduced. Better chip control also contributes to tool life, decreasing unplanned stops and improving overall process stability — a direct benefit to batch consistency and downstream operations.

Simple integration and secure clamping for repeatable performance

Mounting is secure thanks to the hole with cylindrical bore and one-sided countersink (40°–60°) which ensures firm seating and stabilised clamping forces during turning. The insert thickness of 2.38 mm and ISO size 07 allow robust engagement in compatible holders, helping to reduce vibration and deflection. For best results, pair the insert with an appropriately rated external holder or boring bar and select cutting data that match material properties and machine rigidity. If uncertainty remains about holder selection or cutting parameters, technical advice is recommended.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The DCMT070208 T9215 insert is optimised for medium steel machining; the T9215 grade combines wear resistance and toughness for continuous to slightly interrupted cutting when turning steel.

How does the T9215 coating benefit production?
The CVD-coated T9215 grade on the DCMT070208 improves thermal stability and wear resistance, extending cutting edge life and supporting higher productivity in repetitive turning operations.

Which geometry details affect holder compatibility?
Holder compatibility depends on form, clearance, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness; the rhombic shape, 7° clearance and 2.38 mm thickness of this insert must match the chosen external holder or boring bar.

Can this insert be used for interrupted cuts?
The T9215 grade is suitable for continuous to lightly interrupted cuts; for heavy interruptions, a different geometry or a tougher grade may be recommended for the specific application.

What chip control can be expected with this insert?
The single-sided chipbreaker on the DCMT070208 promotes short, controllable chips during steel turning, improving evacuation from the cutting zone and enhancing surface finish.
