TNMG 160404 T9225 — ISO turning insert, CVD‑coated carbide, 0.4 mm corner radius — Tungaloy

TNMG 160404 T9225 is an ISO‑format turning insert for medium to heavy steel turning, designed as a triangular, double‑sided plate with a cylindrical locating hole for secure clamping in ISO holders.

• CVD‑coated cemented carbide grade T9225
• Universal grade for medium to heavy steel turning
• Triangular insert with cylindrical hole
• 0.4 mm corner radius for fine finishing

Reliable performance under variable cutting conditions

The CVD‑coated cemented carbide grade delivers a balance of toughness and wear resistance that suits interrupted cuts and changing engagement conditions. As an ISO turning insert, this plate offers repeatable geometry and predictable life, reducing downtime caused by frequent index changes. The hardened coating improves edge stability at higher temperatures, while the substrate core maintains fracture resistance under heavier radial depths of cut, supporting stable production across mixed‑batch work.

Consistent chip control and surface quality

Equipped with a double‑sided chipbreaker and a defined 0.4 mm corner radius, the insert assists in producing uniform chips and reproducible surface finishes. The chipbreaker geometry is optimised for steel applications, helping to avoid built‑up edge and to channel swarf away from the cutting zone. For operations where surface integrity matters, the combination of chip control and a small corner radius aids in achieving the required tolerance and finish without sacrificing feed or speed.

Simplified handling and holder compatibility

The triangular form with a cylindrical locating hole ensures straightforward clamping and interchangeability with ISO‑compliant toolholders. Compatibility is determined by insert shape, relief angle, tolerance class, clamping and size — factors that make integration into existing tool inventories simple. Standardised dimensions reduce set‑up time and permit rapid indexing, which contributes to higher machine utilisation and lower process variability.

Productivity focused grade for steel machining

The T9225 grade is intended as a robust, universal choice for medium to heavy steel turning, offering a compromise between wear resistance and toughness. This makes the insert particularly suitable where cutting conditions can fluctuate or where occasional interruptions and variable feeds occur. The result is improved process reliability, fewer unexpected edge failures and more predictable replacement intervals, all of which support cost‑effective machining cycles.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited for?
The TNMG160404 T9225 insert is formulated for medium to heavy steel machining; the CVD coating and carbide substrate balance wear resistance and toughness for these materials.

Can the insert be used for interrupted cuts?
Yes. The T9225 grade and the insert geometry provide sufficient toughness for interrupted cuts and variable engagement, reducing edge chipping risk.

How is the insert secured in the holder?
The triangular insert features a cylindrical locating hole and standard ISO geometry, so it is clamped in compatible ISO toolholders using the appropriate backing and clamping set.

Is this insert reversible or single‑sided?
The plate is double‑sided, allowing indexing to alternate edges and extending usable life before replacement.

Which product code should be referenced when ordering?
Reference article number 6780776 or manufacturer SKU TUN6780776 for the TNMG160404 T9225 insert to ensure correct supply.
