DCMT070208 T9215 indexable turning insert – Tungaloy

A DCMT070208 T9215 indexable insert engineered for productive medium-steel turning with a rhombic 55° profile and a single-sided chipbreaker.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9215
• Rhombic 55° geometry, 7° clearance
• 0.8 mm corner radius for stable finish
• Cylindrical hole with single-sided countersink

Boosted productivity for medium-steel turning

The CVD-coated T9215 grade combines high wear resistance with edge toughness, making this carbide insert particularly well suited to continuous and light interrupted cuts on medium steels. The coating system reduces crater and flank wear while retaining a robust cutting edge, which supports longer tool life and more consistent cycle times in production environments. Choosing this grade helps maintain throughput without sacrificing component quality, reducing downtime associated with premature edge failure.

Geometry that delivers repeatable surface quality

The rhombic 55° approach angle and a clearance of 7° are chosen to balance cutting forces and accessibility for external and internal turning operations. The 0.8 mm corner radius provides a compromise between strength and surface finish: it increases edge durability under load while producing a controllable surface texture. In less rigid setups the geometry helps avoid chatter and deflection; in stable, well-clamped machines it enables tighter tolerances with fewer insert changes, supporting reliable, repeatable results.

Secure clamping and clear system compatibility rules

Compatibility with the toolholder is defined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment, size and thickness. This insert features a cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°) and a plate thickness of 2.38 mm, so matching the pocket geometry and screw type on the chosen holder is essential. Proper use of the recommended underlay/clamp set and replacement screws ensures correct seat and torque, which reduces the risk of movement and edge damage during machining.

Practical guidance for operation and life-cycle management

As an indexable insert with a single-sided chipbreaker, this grade offers multiple indexed cutting edges, lowering the cost per usable edge and simplifying tool management. Select a chipbreaker and cutting data tuned to workpiece material and machining stability to get the best balance of metal removal rate and edge life. If there is uncertainty about feed, speed or holder fitment, technical documentation and process recommendations are available to support machining decisions; monitoring flank wear and re-indexing before breakage keeps production predictable and safe. If further data is required, the Metav Werkzeuge team can advise on cutting parameters and holder matches.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert suitable for?
The DCMT070208 T9215 insert is optimised for medium steel machining; the CVD-coated carbide grade T9215 balances wear resistance and fracture toughness for productive turning of these materials.

How to ensure holder compatibility with this insert?
Check the holder pocket for matching form, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size 07 pockets and a seat for a 2.38 mm thick insert; the DCMT070208 requires a clamping system compatible with its cylindrical hole and countersink.

What does the T9215 grade indicate?
T9215 denotes a CVD-coated carbide specification designed for medium-steel applications, offering a combination of high wear resistance and good resistance to edge breakage for productive cutting.

Is this insert suitable for interrupted cuts?
The insert is intended for continuous to light interrupted cutting; for heavy interrupted cuts a grade and chipbreaker tailored to high impact conditions should be considered.

What is the hole style and how should it be clamped?
The insert has a cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°); secure clamping using the correct underlay/clamp set and replacement screws is recommended to ensure stable seating and repeatable performance.
