TNMG 160408 T9225 – Turning insert (ISO TNMG160408) by Tungaloy

TNMG160408 T9225 is a CVD-coated carbide insert for ISO-compliant external and internal turning in steel, designed for robust, versatile machining.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9225
• Universal for medium to heavy steel
• Triangular TNMG shape, 60° cutting angle
• Double-sided chipbreaker, 0.8 mm corner radius

Reliable cutting performance for medium to heavy steel

The T9225 grade is a CVD-coated carbide developed for demanding turning tasks where variable engagement or lightly interrupted cuts require additional toughness. The coating provides improved wear resistance and heat protection compared with uncoated grades, which translates into longer tool life and fewer changeovers. For production environments that prioritise uptime, the combination of a tough substrate and a wear-resistant coating yields measurable improvements in process stability and component repeatability.

Secure geometry and system compatibility for consistent finishes

The TNMG160408 triangular insert features a 60° cutting geometry and a 0.8 mm corner radius that help deliver stable cutting conditions and predictable surface quality. Compatibility with a holder depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; matching these parameters ensures secure clamping and reduces vibration. The insert is supplied in an ISO format and integrates into a standard system comprising an appropriate external holder or boring bar, a shim/clamp set and replacement fastening screws for straightforward assembly.

Practical guidance to boost productivity and reduce downtime

A double-sided chipbreaker and a cylindrical hole improve repeatability and make index changes economical, while the universal nature of the grade supports a wide range of steel alloys under changing cutting conditions. Typical applications include external and internal turning where a balance of wear resistance and toughness is required. If uncertainty exists regarding holder compatibility or the optimal chipbreaker for a specific job, technical consultancy is available to recommend the correct insert, grade and clamping arrangement to maximise tool life and part quality.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The TNMG160408 T9225 insert is specified for medium to heavy steel turning; the CVD-coated carbide grade provides wear resistance suited to those materials.

Is this insert compatible with standard TNMG holders?
Compatibility is determined by insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; the TNMG160408 follows ISO conventions and will fit matching TNMG holders when those parameters align.

What advantages does the T9225 grade offer over uncoated grades?
The T9225 CVD coating enhances thermal and abrasive wear resistance while the carbide substrate maintains toughness for interrupted cuts, resulting in longer service life and more consistent machining.

How does the double-sided chipbreaker affect productivity?
A double-sided chipbreaker extends service life by allowing index changes and provides consistent chip control under varying conditions, which helps reduce downtime and improves process reliability.
