SNMG120408 T9225 turning indexable insert for turning by Tungaloy — CVD-coated carbide, square geometry

SNMG120408 T9225 is a square ISO turning indexable insert designed for robust mid-to-heavy steel turning, offering a 0° clearance and a cylindrical centre hole for secure clamping.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9225
• Universal grade for mid-to-heavy steel
• Square insert 12 mm, thickness 4.76 mm
• Double-sided chipbreaker, reversible
• Cylindrical centre hole for secure clamping

Reliable performance where interrupted cuts occur

The CVD-coated carbide composition of the T9225 grade is engineered to balance toughness and wear resistance, making it suited to variable cutting conditions encountered in mid-to-heavy steel turning. This indexable insert provides consistent edge life under changing engagement and intermittent cuts, which reduces the frequency of tool changes and supports uninterrupted production cycles. The coating enhances surface hardness while the substrate maintains fracture resistance, so process stability is improved without sacrificing productivity.

Positive clamping and repeatable accuracy for production

A square geometry combined with a cylindrical centre hole and a standard ISO form ensures reliable seating in compatible toolholders. The 12 mm size and 4.76 mm thickness, together with a 0° clearance and a corner radius of 0.8 mm, allow predictable contact conditions and repeatable tool setup. Compatibility with holders is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; when the toolholder and insert match these parameters, clamping force is transmitted evenly and dimensional consistency is maintained throughout serial runs.

Lower inventory complexity, higher productivity

The double-sided chipbreaker design makes the insert reversible, effectively doubling its usable life and reducing spare-part inventory. As part of a standard ISO system, the insert is used with a matching outer holder or boring bar, plus a shim/clamp set and spare screws for secure assembly. The universal nature of the grade reduces the need for multiple special-purpose inserts, simplifying tool management and cutting costs while maintaining reliable machining performance and surface quality.
