TNMG160416 T9225 ISO triangular turning insert by Tungaloy — CVD-coated carbide, 60° included angle

TNMG160416 T9225 is a triangular ISO indexable insert designed for turning applications in medium-to-heavy steel machining, offering a balance of toughness and wear resistance for variable cutting conditions

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9225
• 60° triangular insert with 1.6 mm nose radius
• Double-sided chipbreaker for stable chip control
• ISO-standard compatibility with cylindrical-hole clamping

Robust performance for demanding steel turning

The CVD-coated carbide substrate in this insert provides enhanced wear resistance while retaining the toughness needed for intermittent cuts and variable engagement. The T9225 grade is formulated as a robust universal grade for medium-to-heavy steel machining, which means fewer insert changes and more uptime on production runs. With a 1.6 mm nose radius, the geometry balances edge strength and surface finish, helping to maintain dimensional stability under heavier radial loads. The proven combination of substrate and coating supports predictable tool life and consistent component quality.

Fast integration and secure clamping for efficient setup

Designed to the ISO standard, the triangular form and 60° included angle make the insert compatible with a wide range of standard external holders and boring bars. The cylindrical hole and matching clamping systems ensure repeatable positioning and reduced setup time, lowering fixture-related variability. At a thickness of 4.76 mm, the insert offers sufficient support in the pocket to resist vibration under tougher cuts while the double-sided chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation, aiding coolant flow and tool stability. These attributes translate into smoother process integration and fewer interruptions on the shop floor.

Durable edge control and predictable chip management

The double-sided chipbreaker paired with the CVD-coating delivers reliable chip control across varying cut depths and feed rates, reducing the risk of snarled chips and workpiece rework. The robust universal grade provides balanced performance where cutting conditions fluctuate, such as interrupted cuts or mixed-material batches. This results in improved process reliability and less need for frequent grade changes. For quality-sensitive production, the insert’s design supports consistent surface finish and repeatable dimensional tolerances, giving machinists confidence in both single-part and batch production environments.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for? The TNMG160416 T9225 insert is optimised for medium-to-heavy steel turning; the CVD-coated carbide grade offers wear resistance and toughness suited to variable engagement and interrupted cuts.

Can the insert be used in standard ISO holders? Yes, the insert follows ISO triangular geometry and features a cylindrical hole, making it compatible with standard external holders and boring bars designed for TNMG-format inserts.

How does the double-sided chipbreaker affect performance? The double-sided chipbreaker ensures controlled chip formation on both faces, improving chip evacuation and contributing to process stability during continuous and interrupted turning operations.

What edge radius should be selected for surface finish versus strength? The TNMG160416 has a 1.6 mm nose radius, which offers a compromise between improved surface finish and enhanced edge strength for heavier cuts; smaller radii can be chosen on inserts with different specifications if finer finishes are required.

Is the T9225 grade suitable for mixed-production environments? Yes, the T9225 universal grade is formulated for versatility and performs well across varying cutting parameters, making it appropriate for shops with mixed or changing workpieces.
