CNMG 160616 T9225 Wendeplatten - Tungaloy

Reliable performance and adaptable geometry make the CNMG160616 an efficient choice for medium-to-heavy steel turning; the CVD-coated T9225 grade provides toughness for interrupted cuts while the two-sided chipbreaker supports consistent chip control — order directly via Metav Werkzeuge or request advice from our consultants.

CNMG160616 T9225 Tungaloy indexable insert for turning (CNMG 160616, CVD-coated carbide)

CNMG160616 is an ISO-form indexable insert engineered for external and internal turning, combining a robust CVD-coated carbide grade with a two-sided chipbreaker for stable performance in varying engagement conditions.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9225
• Two-sided chipbreaker for interrupted cuts
• ISO CNMG 160616 geometry, with hole
• Suited for medium to heavy steel turning

High-performance cutting for productive turning

The insert is designed to raise machining throughput by combining a CVD-coated surface with a tough T9225 substrate; this pairing improves wear resistance and edge strength so that the cutting edge endures fluctuating loads and light interruptions. The indexable insert format enables quick, repeatable tool changes, reducing downtime and supporting continuous production cycles. Emphasis on cutting stability and predictable flank wear translates directly into fewer unplanned stops and a steadier surface finish on turned components.

Straightforward integration with ISO toolholders

Compatibility with standard holders is ensured by the ISO designation and defined geometry: the ISO CNMG 160616 format, rhombic plate shape and central hole simplify mounting and orientation. Key dimensions such as 16 mm size, 6.35 mm plate thickness and 1.6 mm corner radius allow selection of the correct clamping assembly and clearance setting. The insert’s 0° relief angle and the 80° engagement geometry support common external and internal turning set-ups, making the part a reliable component for existing turning stations without extensive adapter modifications.

Reliable chip control and material suitability

The two-sided chipbreaker offers controlled chip formation for a broad range of steels, delivering consistent evacuation even under moderately interrupted cuts. The grade is described as a robust universal choice for medium-to-heavy steel machining, favouring applications where variable engagement or occasional interruptions demand additional toughness. Clear technical specification and ISO normalisation reduce selection uncertainty, while the coated carbide construction helps maintain cutting-edge integrity over longer tool life, contributing to lower process costs per component.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The CNMG160616 T9225 insert is optimised for medium-to-heavy steel machining; the CVD-coated carbide and the grade’s toughness suit variable engagement and light interruptions.

How does the chipbreaker affect performance?
The two-sided chipbreaker on this insert improves chip control and evacuation, helping maintain stable cutting conditions during interrupted or heavy engagement turning.

Which dimensions are critical when selecting a holder?
Key dimensions include the size (16 mm), plate thickness (6.35 mm) and corner radius (1.6 mm); compatibility also depends on the CNMG geometry and central hole style.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, the ISO CNMG 160616 format and rhombic shape are designed for compatibility with standard CNMG-compatible holders when correct clearance and fastening are observed.

What are the main benefits of the T9225 grade?
T9225 is a robust universal grade that balances wear resistance and toughness, providing reliable performance in medium-to-heavy steel turning and under slightly interrupted cutting conditions.
