CNMG 160616 T9205 Tungaloy — ISO turning indexable insert, rhombic 80°, CVD-coated carbide

The CNMG160616 T9205 Tungaloy insert is an ISO-standard rhombic turning insert designed for productive external and internal turning of steel under stable machining conditions.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9205
• 80° rhombic geometry for general turning
• 1.6 mm corner radius for robust engagement
• Double-sided chipbreaker for consistent chip control

Higher throughput through a wear-resistant grade

The combination of a CVD-coated surface and a carbide substrate provides improved wear resistance compared with uncoated grades, enabling higher cutting speeds where process conditions are stable. This results in fewer tool changes and longer uninterrupted runs, which translates directly into improved throughput and reduced per-part machining cost. The T9205 designation indicates a grade optimised for steel machining, offering a balance between hardness and toughness for predictable performance.

Material match and clear cutting advantages for steel turning

Engineered primarily for the machining of steel, the insert’s double-sided chipbreaker geometry supports effective chip formation and evacuation during turning operations. The chip control features reduce the risk of chip interference and surface damage, improving consistency of results. For less experienced machinists, this means a simpler choice: select a chipbreaker and grade aligned to the workpiece and stability level, and expect stable cutting behaviour and reliable surface finish.

Secure fit and geometry that simplify set-up

Conforming to ISO dimensions, the insert’s CNMG160616 shape and the with cylindrical hole mounting option ensure compatibility with standard indexable holders. The 80° rhombic form and 0° relief angle favour general-purpose turning, offering a forgiving geometry for a range of feeds and depths of cut. The 6.35 mm thickness and 16 mm size provide mechanical rigidity for steady cutting engagement, while the 1.6 mm corner radius offers a compromise between edge strength and finish quality.

Predictable economics through fewer interruptions

Longer tool life and stable chip formation contribute to measurable economic benefits: less downtime, fewer regrinds and more consistent part quality. The carbide substrate with CVD coating helps maintain edge integrity at elevated speeds, reducing flank wear and the need for premature insert changes. For production environments seeking repeatable cycles and lower tooling interventions, this indexable insert supports cost-efficient, high-availability machining.
