WNMG 080408 T9235 — ISO trigon turning insert for steel turning (Tungaloy)

The WNMG 080408 T9235 is an ISO-standard trigon insert intended for external and internal turning, offering a CVD-coated carbide grade optimised for tough steels and interrupted cuts.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9235 for tough steel
• Trigon shape WNMG, 0.8 mm corner radius
• ISO 080408 format, 0° clearance, with cylindrical hole
• Stable chip control with ZM chipbreaker

Reliable cutting performance under unstable conditions

The combination of a CVD-coated surface and a wear-resistant carbide substrate provides durable cutting edges that resist adhesive wear and edge chipping in demanding operations. The CVD layer increases hardness at the cutting interface while the substrate maintains toughness; this balance makes the insert particularly suitable for tough steel applications where lower cutting speeds or interrupted cuts are common. Specified as grade T9235, the geometry and coating together reduce the frequency of edge failures, supporting steady process flows and predictable tool life.

Precise fit and secure mounting for quick changeovers

Designed to the ISO 080408 format, the insert’s trigon outline and 0.8 mm corner radius ensure compatibility with a wide range of ISO holders when form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening and thickness are matched. The insert thickness of 4.76 mm and the presence of a cylindrical hole enable secure clamping and repeatable seating, which reduces setup variability and downtime during index changes. Clear reference to ISO sizing simplifies procurement and inventory management while preserving the option to select a holder and clamping kit that match the required rigidity and repeatability.

Efficient chip control and consistent surface quality

The ZM chipbreaker is configured to manage chip flow in both external and internal turning, promoting short, controllable chips that reduce rework and improve operator safety. In practice, this yields more consistent surface finish and dimension stability even when conditions fluctuate. The grade’s toughness provides tolerance against intermittent cutting forces, so fewer premature edge changes are required. For machining tasks focused on productivity and repeatable results, this insert supports measurable efficiency gains and process reliability.

FAQ

Which materials are suitable for this insert?
The WNMG 080408 ZM T9235 insert from Tungaloy is formulated for machining tough steels; its CVD-coated carbide composition prioritises toughness and wear resistance for interrupted cuts and unstable conditions.

How does the ZM chipbreaker affect productivity?
The ZM chipbreaker on the WNMG 080408-ZM T9235 promotes short, controlled chips, leading to improved surface quality and reduced rework during external and internal turning operations with variable cutting conditions.

What mounting features ensure repeatable seating?
The trigon insert uses a cylindrical central hole and an ISO 080408 form; combined with the 4.76 mm thickness and standardised geometry, this ensures secure clamping and repeatable index changes when matched to a compatible holder.

Is this insert suitable for heavy interrupted cuts?
Yes — the T9235 grade and carbide substrate provide the toughness required for more aggressive or interrupted cutting regimes, helping to reduce edge chipping and extend effective tool life.
