SCMT09T308-23 T9225 Tungaloy indexable insert for milling — CVD-coated carbide, 0.8 mm radius

The SCMT09T308-23 is a square indexable insert for Tungaloy milling systems, optimised for medium to heavy steel machining and requiring a matched insert seat and body geometry.

• CVD-coated carbide for enhanced edge life
• Universal T9225 grade for medium–heavy steel
• Square insert with 0.8 mm corner radius
• Cylindrical hole with countersink for secure seating

Reliable edge life for medium to heavy steel milling

The combination of a CVD coating and a carbide substrate provides a balance of wear resistance and toughness that is well suited to demanding steel applications. The T9225 grade is formulated as a universal option for variable engagement and slightly interrupted cuts, which helps maintain edge integrity under changing conditions. As a result, the insert delivers longer service intervals and more predictable tool-change cycles compared with uncoated alternatives, improving process reliability in production runs.

System fit and secure clamping reduce vibration

Precise seating and clamping are essential for consistent results. The insert’s square form, cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°) and a nominal 7° clearance angle ensure correct alignment and secure clamping in compatible milling bodies. Correct matching of insert seat, geometry and cutter body reduces micro-movement and vibration, which in turn stabilises the cut and contributes to repeatable surface finish and dimensional consistency across components.

Versatile machining operations with reliable chip control

Designed for a wide range of milling tasks — from face and shoulder milling to slotting, high-feed and contouring depending on the tool family — this indexable insert features chipbreaker 23 that supports stable chip formation and evacuation. Stable chip control shortens cycle times and reduces the risk of rework caused by poor chip behaviour, making the insert a practical option for job shops and production environments that encounter mixed cut conditions.

Productivity through fewer tool variants and predictable performance

Using a robust universal grade such as T9225 reduces the need to stock numerous specialised grades, simplifying inventory and accelerating tool selection. The insert’s geometry and coating contribute to longer flank life and consistent cutting behaviour, which together lower downtime and support higher overall machining efficiency. In production terms, this equates to fewer tool changes and a steadier output quality over longer runs.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The SCMT09T308-23 T9225 insert is intended primarily for medium to heavy steel machining; the T9225 grade offers the toughness needed for variable engagement and slightly interrupted cuts.

Can this insert be used in non‑Tungaloy cutter bodies?
The insert can be fitted into any cutter body that matches its seat and geometry, but the SCMT09T308-23 requires a technically compatible seat and clamping system to ensure correct performance and safety.

Which milling operations are recommended for this insert?
The indexable insert is suitable for face, shoulder, slot, high‑feed and contour milling depending on the assigned tool family; its chipbreaker 23 supports controlled chip flow during these tasks.

How does the CVD coating benefit production runs?
The CVD coating increases wear resistance and edge stability, extending useful tool life and enabling more consistent cycle times across production batches with varying engagement conditions.

Why is the cylindrical hole and countersink important?
The cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°) ensures secure seating and positive clamping, which reduces vibration and improves repeatability of dimensional and surface finish results.
