CPMT 160508 T9225 Turning Insert (CVD-coated carbide), 0.8 mm radius — Tungaloy

A CPMT 160508 T9225 ISO turning insert engineered for medium to heavy-duty steel turning, offering a balance of toughness and wear resistance for interrupted and variable cutting conditions.

• CVD-coated carbide for enhanced wear resistance
• Universal grade for medium to heavy steel turning
• ISO‑standard rhombic geometry with locating hole
• 0.8 mm corner radius for robust cutting edge

Consistent cutting performance through a resilient grade

The T9225 grade is a CVD-coated cemented carbide developed for robust universal performance in steel machining. Its composition provides increased wear resistance while retaining sufficient toughness for slightly interrupted cuts and changing engagement conditions, which reduces edge chipping and extends life in heavy-duty operations. As a consequence, cycle times become more predictable and tool changes less frequent, supporting leaner production.

Geometry and ISO compatibility for reliable clamping

The rhombic insert shape with an included angle of 80°, a relief angle of 11°, and a 0.8 mm corner radius delivers a stable cutting edge suited to external and internal turning. The insert is ISO‑standardised, so compatibility with a holder depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness — all standardised parameters that permit secure seating and repeatable positioning. The cylindrical hole with a single‑side countersink (40°–60°) ensures positive locating and straightforward replacement with standard clamping systems.

Design details that aid process stability and chip control

A 5.56 mm insert thickness and a designated chipbreaker 24 support robust chip formation and evacuation during medium to heavy cuts, reducing the risk of built‑up edge and improving surface finish. The insert’s ISO turning insert series construction means it forms part of a simple system: insert, matched external holder or boring bar, and standard mounting hardware. Selecting the correct chipbreaker and grade for the workpiece material, cutter geometry and machine stability directly improves cutting stability and lowers overall machining costs.

Practical benefits for workshop productivity

When used for steel turning, the combination of CVD coating, appropriate chipbreaker and standardised geometry reduces unplanned downtime and contributes to reproducible part quality. The insert suits both external and internal operations and can be paired with a range of holders to match rigidity and reach requirements. This translates into fewer tool changes, steadier dimensional control and a measurable improvement in throughput for batch and single‑piece production alike.

FAQ

Is this insert compatible with standard ISO turning holders?
The CPMT 160508 T9225 insert follows ISO geometry; compatibility with holders is determined by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening and thickness, so pairing with the correct ISO holder ensures secure clamping and repeatable positioning.

For which materials is this grade recommended?
The T9225 grade is optimised for medium to heavy steel turning, offering a balance of wear resistance and toughness for variable cut conditions and slightly interrupted cuts.

What does the chipbreaker number 24 indicate for cutting behaviour?
Chipbreaker 24 provides controlled chip formation for moderate to heavy cutting depths, improving evacuation and reducing the chance of snarled chips during steel machining with the CPMT 160508 T9225 insert.

How does the 0.8 mm corner radius affect part finish and tool life?
A 0.8 mm corner radius increases edge strength for heavy engagement and interrupted cuts, enhancing tool life; it also influences surface finish and should be matched to the required tolerance and cutting data.

Which system components are needed to use this insert efficiently?
Efficient use involves a suitable ISO external holder or boring bar, compatible clamping hardware and replacement screws; the insert forms part of a standardised system for stable and repeatable turning operations.
