CNMG160616 T9235 ISO turning insert — CVD-coated carbide, 80° rhombic form (Tungaloy)

CNMG160616 T9235 is an ISO-standard rhombic turning insert designed for external and internal turning operations; the insert is optimised for steel machining under interrupted cuts and unstable conditions.

• CVD-coated carbide for tough steel applications
• 80° rhombic geometry for versatile turning
• Double-sided chipbreaker for extended tool life
• Cylindrical hole, 6.35 mm thickness, ISO size 16

Consistent performance when conditions vary

The CNMG-style turning insert utilises a CVD-coated carbide grade developed for toughness rather than top-speed cutting, which translates into reliable material removal where vibrations, interrupted cuts or less rigid set-ups occur. The T9235 designation indicates a coating and substrate pairing optimised for steel, reducing the risk of chipping and flank wear during heavy interruptions. For production environments where process stability cannot always be guaranteed, this insert provides predictable life and fewer unplanned tool changes, supporting higher overall equipment effectiveness.

Easy integration with ISO holders and predictable set-up

Manufactured to ISO dimensions, the insert fits a wide range of standard holders and boring bars; compatibility is governed by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fixation method, size and thickness. The 80° rhombic form and 1.6 mm corner radius deliver balance between strength and accessibility in profile turning, while the central cylindrical hole enables secure clamping. Clear adherence to ISO norms simplifies tool selection, shortens machine set-up times and reduces the risk of mismatched assemblies, which in turn supports faster job throughput and lower set-up costs.

Practical chip control and application guidance

Equipped with a double-sided chipbreaker, the insert helps to control chip formation across a range of feeds, contributing to safer chip evacuation and improved surface finish in many turning tasks. The recommended role for this grade is turning of steel at moderate cutting speeds; choose matching chipbreaker geometry and a holder with sufficient rigidity for best results. For internal turning choose an appropriate boring bar; for external operations a robust external holder ensures edge security. Where uncertainty exists about the correct holder or cutting parameters, consult technical advice to align the insert, chipbreaker and holder to the workpiece and machining conditions.
