DGIM 2-020- T9225 — Tungaloy indexable turning insert, ISO 2-020-, for turning

The DGIM2-020- T9225 is an ISO-series indexable insert engineered for external and internal turning operations, offering a rhombic geometry and a robust grade tailored to variable cutting conditions.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9225
• Universal grade for medium to heavy steel turning
• ISO DGIM form, rhombic 55° geometry
• Single-sided chipbreaker with cylindrical hole

Stable performance for medium to heavy steel turning

The CVD-coated carbide construction of this insert delivers improved wear resistance and a consistent cutting edge under fluctuating conditions. The T9225 grade is formulated as a robust universal solution, giving higher toughness for slightly interrupted cuts and variable engagement depths. In practice, this means fewer insert changes, extended machining intervals and a more predictable production flow, with the coating reducing flank wear and the substrate maintaining edge stability under higher cutting forces.

Geometry and clamping that reduce vibration and improve surface finish

The rhombic DGIM form with a 55° included angle and 30° clearance provides a balanced combination of strength and accessibility for both external and internal operations. The single-sided chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation on the selected side, while the cylindrical hole allows secure screw clamping in standard ISO holders. Together, these features reduce vibration, support repeatable seating in the pocket and contribute to a finer surface finish on machined components when paired with a suitable holder and stable setup.

System-level compatibility and selection guidance

As an ISO-series insert, compatibility is determined by form, relief angle, tolerance class, mounting, size and thickness. The insert is intended to be used with a matching external holder or boring bar, plus a support shim and clamp set with replacement screws. For best results in steel turning, select the chipbreaker and insert grade to match the material, cutting mode and machine stability; the robust T9225 grade is particularly suited to jobs where occasional interruptions or varying engagement require added toughness rather than the highest possible hardness.

Operational benefits and workshop advantages

Adopting this ISO insert reduces tooling complexity by aligning with standard insert pockets and screw mounting, enabling quick index changes and straightforward stock management. The combination of a coated grade and proven geometry supports reliable tool life and consistent part quality, which in turn lowers production interruptions and contributes to overall machining economy. Maintenance is simplified because the insert form and hole style conform to established ISO norms, making replacements and spares easy to manage across multiple machines.

FAQ

What materials is this insert recommended for? The Tungaloy DGIM2-020- T9225 insert is recommended primarily for steel machining, providing balanced toughness for medium to heavy cuts and slightly interrupted operations.

Which holder types are compatible with this DGIM-form insert? Compatibility depends on the ISO DGIM form and the insert dimensions; the DGIM2-020- form fits standard ISO pockets for rhombic inserts and requires a holder that accepts a cylindrical-holed, screw-clamped insert.

How does the T9225 grade behave in interrupted cuts? The T9225 grade offers increased toughness compared with hard, wear-focused grades, making it more tolerant of interrupted cuts and varying engagement without premature edge chipping.

Is the DGIM2-020- suitable for both external and internal turning? Yes, the rhombic geometry and the 55° included angle make the insert suitable for both external and internal turning when paired with the appropriate holder and machine stability.

What system components are required to use the insert? A complete cutting system comprises the insert, a matching external holder or boring bar, support shim/clamp set and the correct replacement screws to achieve secure and repeatable clamping.
