SCMT120408 T9215 indexable insert for milling — Tungaloy

A SCMT120408 T9215 indexable insert designed for Tungaloy milling systems, optimised for face, shoulder, slot, high-feed and contour milling in medium steel applications

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9215
• Optimised for medium steel machining
• Square insert, 12 mm size, 0.8 mm corner radius
• Cylindrical hole with single-sided countersink

High-performance grade for medium steel that raises process reliability

The insert is manufactured from CVD-coated carbide and specified as grade T9215, which combines wear resistance with controlled fracture resistance. This balance permits higher productivity in continuous and lightly interrupted cuts, reducing the frequency of index changes and supporting predictable cycle times. For workshops seeking consistent tool life and surface quality, the material and coating selection translate directly into lower operating costs and more stable production performance.

Geometry and clamping that ensure stable cutting and repeatability

Square format and a corner radius 0.8 mm together with a 4.76 mm plate thickness deliver stiffness and positive engagement for radial and axial cuts. The 12 mm size and 7° relief angle are chosen for general-purpose milling where rigidity and edge strength matter; the cylindrical hole with one-sided countersink (40°–60°) enables secure clamping and repeatable positioning in compatible tool bodies. The integrated single-sided chipbreaker improves chip flow and reduces the risk of built-up edge, which in turn supports consistent surface finish and predictable regrinding intervals.

Practical applications and benefits in everyday milling operations

Configured for face, shoulder, slot, high-feed and contour milling, the insert is suited to a broad range of shop-floor tasks on medium steel. When matched to the correct Tungaloy cutter body—where seat geometry and clamp specification align—the system delivers reliable cutting behaviour and stable chip formation. The result is fewer unplanned stops, improved part quality and an easier process window to set up. For larger production runs, this contributes to reproducible results and optimised tool utilisation.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The SCMT120408 T9215 indexable insert from Tungaloy is optimised for medium steel machining and provides an effective balance of wear resistance and fracture toughness for typical shop-floor steels.

Can the insert handle interrupted cuts?
Yes, the T9215 grade is specified for continuous to light interrupted cuts; for heavier interruptions the clamping method and cutter body selection should be reviewed to ensure edge security.

What are the key geometric specifications of the insert?
This square insert measures 12 mm with a plate thickness of 4.76 mm, a corner radius of 0.8 mm and a 7° relief angle, offering a stiffer geometry for robust milling tasks.

How is the insert secured in the milling body?
Clamping is achieved via the cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°); correct seat and clamp selection in the milling body are essential for repeatable positioning.

Is the insert compatible with Tungaloy systems only?
The insert is designed for Tungaloy milling systems where the seat, geometry and clamping match; when mounted in compatible bodies it delivers the intended performance.
