VNMG160408 T9235 indexable turning insert for turning – Tungaloy

A VNMG160408 T9235 indexable turning insert engineered for external and internal turning, offering a tough CVD-coated carbide grade for unstable conditions and interrupted cuts.

• CVD-coated carbide for enhanced toughness
• Designed for unstable and interrupted cuts
• Rhombic 16 mm plate, 0° clearance angle
• Double-sided chipbreaker with cylindrical hole

Stable cutting performance in interrupted and unstable conditions

The combination of a CVD-coated surface and a tough carbide substrate provides a balanced performance profile for turning operations in steel. The T9235 grade is formulated to maintain a durable cutting edge at lower cutting speeds and under interrupted engagement, which means fewer premature edge failures and more consistent productivity. For production environments where stability cannot always be guaranteed, this insert reduces the frequency of unplanned tool changes and helps to maintain component quality through stable chip formation.

Geometry and clamping designed for repeatability and secure seating

The rhombic plate form with an inscribed circle of 16 mm, a plate thickness of 4.76 mm and a corner radius of 0.8 mm provides a predictable contact area in standard ISO-type holders. The 0° clearance angle and the 35° wedge geometry contribute to a repeatable cutting angle when mounted in compatible external holders or boring bars. A cylindrical hole and double-sided chipbreaker enable secure clamping and economical indexability, delivering simple rotation to a fresh edge and ensuring consistent part-to-part accuracy over multiple regrinds or indexings.

System compatibility and practical application advice

This insert is intended for use in a standard ISO turning system comprising an indexable insert, a suitable external holder or boring bar, a shim/clamp set and replacement screws. Compatibility with a given holder depends on geometry, clearance, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; therefore, selecting the matching clamping set and chipbreaker is essential for optimal performance. The insert’s design supports both external and internal turning applications in steel; choosing the correct chipbreaker and machining parameters will further improve surface finish and extend tool life.
