VCMT 110304 T9225 — Turning insert, ISO rhombic form, CVD‑coated carbide (Tungaloy)

The VCMT110304-PSS T9225 is an ISO‑standard rhombic turning insert engineered for medium to heavy steel turning, offering a PSS chipbreaker and a robust CVD‑coated carbide grade for stable machining under variable cutting conditions.

• CVD-coated carbide for enhanced wear resistance
• Robust universal grade T9225 for medium–heavy steel
• PSS chipbreaker for stable chip control
• Rhombic VCMT form with 0.4 mm corner radius

Increased productivity through wear-resistant grade and chip control

The combination of a CVD‑coated carbide substrate and the T9225 grade ensures a balance between hardness and toughness, suitable for demanding steel operations. The applied coating reduces flank and crater wear, extending tool life and lowering indexation frequency. With the integrated PSS chipbreaker, chip formation is controlled even during light interruptions, which reduces downtime for chip clearing and helps maintain a consistent surface finish. These characteristics translate into higher throughput and fewer unplanned tool changes on production lines.

Secure fit and ISO compatibility for predictable set‑ups

Designed to meet ISO specifications, the insert’s rhombic VCMT form and the central hole with a cylindrical bore and single‑side countersink (40°–60°) ensure reliable seating and repeatable positioning in standard holders. The insert thickness of 3.18 mm, an inscribed circle of 11 mm and the nominal 7° clearance angle make it compatible with common external and internal turning assemblies; this compatibility reduces setup time and minimises the risk of incorrect assembly. Clear geometric parameters support process planning and simplify holder selection for manufacturing engineers.

Application guidance for efficient steel turning

The grade is optimised for medium to heavy steel machining, including scenarios with slightly interrupted cuts where additional toughness is required. A 0.4 mm corner radius provides a compromise between edge strength and surface quality, allowing stable engagement in roughing and semi‑finishing passes. Selecting this insert with a matching holder and appropriate cutting data will help achieve good chip control, consistent tool life and improved surface integrity, particularly when machining alloyed and carbon steels under variable cutting conditions.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The VCMT110304-PSS T9225 is optimised for medium to heavy steel machining and performs well under slightly interrupted cutting conditions due to its tougher CVD‑coated carbide grade.

How does the PSS chipbreaker affect machining?
The PSS chipbreaker on the insert promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation, reducing the risk of entanglement and helping to maintain consistent surface quality during turning operations.

Which geometry details ensure secure clamping?
The rhombic VCMT form combined with the central cylindrical hole and single‑side countersink (40°–60°) provides repeatable seating and stable fixation in ISO‑compatible holders.

Is this insert suitable for finishing operations?
With a 0.4 mm corner radius and the CVD coating, the insert can be used for semi‑finishing and some finishing passes, though finer radii may be preferred for high‑precision surface finishes.

What should be considered for interrupted cuts?
The T9225 grade is formulated to deliver additional toughness for interrupted cuts; pairing the insert with appropriate feed rates and a rigid setup will improve edge life and process security.
