TPMR 160308 T9225 ISO turning insert — triangular 60° form by Tungaloy

The TPMR160308 T9225 is an ISO-standard triangular turning insert designed for external and internal turning operations, offering a robust universal grade for interrupted and heavy cuts.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9225
• ISO triangular insert, 60° included angle
• 0.8 mm corner radius for durable cutting edge
• Suited to medium to heavy steel turning

Consistent performance for demanding steel turning

The combination of a CVD-coated surface and a carbide substrate in grade T9225 provides increased toughness and wear resistance where engagement conditions vary. This makes the insert particularly valuable when interrupted cuts or unstable setups demand a balance between edge strength and fracture resistance. The ISO-standard geometry simplifies tool selection for established holders and enables predictable life cycles, so production runs benefit from repeatable tool changes and stable cutting results.

Predictable chip control and reliable surface quality

A 60° geometry triangular form paired with a single-sided chipbreaker gives controlled chip formation across a wide range of cutting parameters. The 0.8 mm corner radius contributes to edge strength while maintaining surface finish; operators will find that the 3.18 mm thickness supports axial stability in both external and internal turning. Explaining briefly: a chipbreaker modifies the chip flow to prevent long, tangled chips and to ease evacuation, which reduces downtime and improves productivity.

Easy integration into existing tooling systems

The insert is supplied in the ISO designation 160308 and is intended for use with matching external holders or boring bars together with the appropriate shim/clamp set and screws. Compatibility is determined by insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness — these parameters should be matched when selecting a holder. For practical selection, choose the chipbreaker and grade that correspond to the workpiece material and machine stability; this approach ensures efficient, repeatable machining and lower overall tooling costs with Tungaloy quality.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The Tungaloy TPMR160308 T9225 insert is optimised for medium to heavy steel turning; the CVD-coated carbide grade gives toughness for interrupted and variable cutting conditions.

Which holders are compatible with this insert?
Compatibility depends on holder form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; select holders specified for ISO triangular 160308 inserts and match the clamp or shim system.

What corner radius and thickness does the insert offer?
The insert has a 0.8 mm corner radius and a thickness of 3.18 mm, balancing edge strength and stability for consistent surface finish.

Is there a mounting hole in the insert?
This TPMR160308 insert is supplied without a hole and is secured using the appropriate clamp or screw system defined by the chosen holder.

How does the chipbreaker affect machining?
The single-sided chipbreaker controls chip flow to reduce long-chip formation and improve evacuation, contributing to safer and more productive turning operations.
