RCMT 1204M0 T9215 turning insert for high-feed roughing — Tungaloy

RCMT 1204M0 T9215 is a round turning insert designed for high-feed, productive roughing under stable clamping conditions and for use in the TurnTenFeed family.

• CVD-coated carbide for long tool life
• Single-sided chipbreaker for stable chips
• Round insert with hole and countersink
• 7° relief angle for secure cutting

Maximise cycle time with high-feed roughing capability

The CVD-coated T9215 carbide grade combines high wear resistance with good fracture toughness, making it a rational choice for medium steel applications and continuous to lightly interrupted cuts. By selecting this geometry and grade, manufacturers benefit from shorter cycle times and predictable tool life; the insert is optimised for productive roughing where feed per revolution is the primary productivity driver. The TurnTenFeed system concept supports efficient changeover between holders and inserts, reducing machine downtime and improving throughput.

Predictable chip control and extended tool life

A defined single-sided chipbreaker and the round plate profile promote consistent chip formation and evacuation, reducing the risk of built-up edge and process interruptions. This results in fewer unplanned stops and improved surface quality on rough-turned components. The combination of chip control and the CVD-coated carbide substrate provides a robust balance between wear resistance and breakage security, supporting sustained production and lower tooling cost per part.

Simple integration into turning tool systems

The insert uses an ISO 1204M0 designation and a with-hole design (cylindrical hole plus one-sided countersink 40°–60°), enabling secure clamping in a wide range of holders. With a plate thickness of 4.76 mm, a nominal size of 12 mm and a clearance or relief angle of 7°, the geometry is easy to incorporate into existing tool fixtures. The supply concept includes holders, indexable inserts and spare parts, so replacement and inventory management can be organised for continuous production. For applications requiring minor adjustments, the stable cutting behaviour simplifies parameter tuning on the machine.
