VBMT110308-PSS T9225 — ISO rhombic turning insert for turning, CVD‑coated carbide by Tungaloy

VBMT110308-PSS T9225 is an ISO‑standard rhombic indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a robust universal grade for variable cutting conditions.

• CVD-coated carbide T9225 grade
• Robust for medium to heavy steel machining
• Rhombic 35° geometry for versatile turning
• Cylindrical hole + single-sided countersink (40°–60°)

High process reliability through material and coating

The combination of a CVD‑coated surface and carbide substrate in the T9225 grade provides high wear resistance while maintaining toughness for interrupted or variable cuts. This chemistry is particularly effective when machining steel, where the coating reduces flank and crater wear, extending life between index changes. The result is measurable consistency in part finish and batch-to-batch reproducibility, supporting lean production and predictable tool replacement intervals.

Predictable chip control and stability with PSS geometry

The PSS chipbreaker is engineered for controlled chip formation in medium to heavy cuts, limiting entanglement and improving evacuation. With a 35° rhombic outline and a 5° relief angle, the insert balances cutting edge strength and accessibility in confined bores. The 0.8 mm corner radius gives a compromise between edge robustness and acceptable cutting forces, helping to maintain surface quality while reducing the risk of edge chipping under varying engagement conditions.

ISO compatibility for fast tool set-up and interchange

As an ISO‑genormte insert, the design ensures compatibility with a wide range of external holders and boring bars when matched by form, clearance, tolerance class, clamping and thickness. The central cylindrical hole with a single‑sided countersink (40°–60°) allows standard clamping hardware to be used, accelerating changeovers and simplifying tool inventory management. This modular approach reduces machine downtime and simplifies procurement for workshops that prioritise quick retooling.

Practical application advice to optimise performance

Select the T9225 grade with the PSS chipbreaker for operations where toughness is needed—such as slightly interrupted cuts or mixed component batches—with a focus on medium to heavy steel applications. For finer finishing passes, consider decreasing feed and using the same insert with adjusted cutting parameters to preserve edge life. The insert integrates into typical ISO insert systems, so toolroom planning can focus on holder geometry and clamping integrity rather than bespoke insert designs.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited for?
The VBMT110308‑PSS T9225 is designed primarily for steel machining in medium to heavy cutting conditions; the T9225 grade provides a balance of toughness and wear resistance.

Can this insert be used for internal and external turning?
Yes, the rhombic 35° geometry and standard hole/countersink make the insert suitable for both external and internal turning applications when paired with the correct holder.

What does the PSS chipbreaker provide in practice?
The PSS chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation under varying engagement, reducing chip-related interruptions and improving process stability with the T9225 grade.

How should the corner radius be chosen for different operations?
The 0.8 mm corner radius on this insert gives improved edge strength for roughing and semi-finishing in heavier cuts while still permitting acceptable surface finish; smaller radii are recommended for fine finishing.

Is the VBMT110308-PSS T9225 compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, the insert conforms to ISO dimensions and is compatible with holders that match form, clearance, tolerance class, clamping and thickness.
