TCMT160620 T1215 TCMT indexable milling insert — triangular, 2 mm radius (Tungaloy)

TCMT160620 T1215 is a triangular indexable insert designed for versatile milling tasks within compatible Tungaloy milling systems

• Triangular insert for stable cutting geometry
• Grade T1215 with balanced wear resistance
• 2 mm corner radius for robust edge strength
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

High‑efficiency milling thanks to a balanced carbide grade

The combination of carbide substrate and the T1215 grade delivers a balance between wear resistance and toughness, which supports consistent tool life under varied cutting conditions. Designed as an indexable cutting element for milling, the insert’s geometry contributes to stable cutting forces and controlled chip flow. This leads to measurable productivity benefits by reducing index‑change frequency and maintaining dimensional consistency on repeat runs.

Secure seating and simple integration into Tungaloy systems

The insert is intended for use in dedicated Tungaloy milling bodies where insert seat, geometry and cutter body must match precisely. The cylindrical hole with single‑side countersink (40°–60°) ensures repeatable clamping and accurate positioning, while the 6.35 mm thickness and triangular form provide a stable contact area. These design choices reduce vibration and support predictable engagement with the workpiece, improving surface quality and tool life.

Versatile application range and cutting edge stability

Suitable for a range of milling operations — from face and shoulder milling to slotting and high‑feed strategies depending on the associated tool family — the insert’s 2 mm corner radius enhances edge robustness, lowering the risk of premature chipping. The single‑sided chipbreaker optimises chip control for many standard milling tasks, simplifying chip evacuation and reducing rework time. The result is a practical, production‑oriented insert that complements modern machining strategies.

Cost‑effective operation through predictable performance

By combining a recognised Tungaloy grade with a standardised triangular form, the insert supports efficient inventory rotation and straightforward tool management. The stability in edge geometry and the reliable clamping concept translate into fewer unscheduled stoppages and consistent component quality. For procurement and process engineers, this means easier planning of tool cycles and a clearer return on machining hours invested in each cutting edge.
