TNMG160408 T9205 Turning insert (TNMG 160408, Tungaloy)

A TNMG160408 T9205 indexable insert engineered for productive external and internal turning of steel under stable machining conditions.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9205
• Triangular TNMG 16 mm form
• 0° clearance for stable cutting
• Double-sided chipbreaker for productivity
• Compatible with ISO turning holders

High-performance grade for productive turning

The insert uses a CVD-coated carbide substrate in the T9205 grade to deliver wear resistance and sustained edge life under higher cutting speeds. This composition is chosen for productive turning where consistent performance and lower tool-change frequency reduce downtime. The coating improves tool life and supports longer, uninterrupted runs on medium to high-carbon steel, making the component economical in serial production and prototype runs.

Geometry and holder compatibility for predictable results

A triangular shape with a 16 mm size, 0.8 mm radius and 60° cutting angle provides a robust contact geometry that enhances rigidity and repeatability. The plate’s 4.76 mm thickness and 0° clearance contribute to stable cutting forces, while the cylindrical hole ensures secure clamping in standard ISO toolholders. These design choices translate into predictable chip flow and repeatable part quality when the insert is mounted in a correctly matched holder.

Operational advantages and recommended applications

With a double-sided chipbreaker, the insert offers two indexed cutting edges before replacement is required, lowering cost per cutting edge and simplifying stock management. It is intended primarily for turning operations on steel where stable clamping and consistent cutting parameters are maintained. The chipbreaker geometry supports efficient chip control, which improves surface finish and reduces interruptions caused by poor chip evacuation.

Practical integration and economical use

Indexable design and conformity to ISO dimensions make integration into existing tool systems straightforward, supporting fast changeovers and consistent set-up. The combination of system compatibility and a robust coating reduces rework and variance between batches. For best results, select a holder that matches form, clearance angle and tolerance class; Metav Werkzeuge can advise on clamping sets and replacement screws to ensure assembly reliability.
