CNMM 160612 T9235 Turning indexable insert by Tungaloy — CVD-coated carbide, TRS chipbreaker, 80°

CNMM160612-TRS T9235 is an ISO-format indexable insert for turning, optimised for steel machining where stability is limited or cuts are interrupted

• CVD-coated carbide grade T9235
• TRS chipbreaker for controlled chips
• Rhombic ISO CNMM 160612 format
• 1.2 mm corner radius, 80° geometry

Greater reliability where conditions are variable

The combination of a CVD-coated carbide substrate and the T9235 tough grade provides a balance of wear resistance and toughness that is especially useful in lower cutting speeds and unstable machining scenarios. The TRS chipbreaker improves chip control, reducing the risk of re-cutting and helping to maintain a consistent surface finish even when conditions fluctuate. For production environments with mixed workpiece stability, this configuration reduces unplanned tool changes and supports steadier cycle times.

Clear guidance for fitting and compatibility

Compatibility with holders is governed by seat form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The insert follows the ISO CNMM 160612 format and requires a matching clamping arrangement and seat geometry. Key measurable data to check before fitting are the 6.35 mm thickness, 16 mm inscribed circle, 0° relief angle and the 80° geometry; the insert is furnished with a cylindrical hole for secure fastening. Verifying these parameters prevents improper seating and helps preserve tool life and workpiece quality.

How the coating and geometry translate into benefit

The chemical vapour deposition (CVD) layer increases surface hardness and temperature resistance while the carbide core maintains edge strength—together they extend service life under abrasive and interrupted conditions. The 1.2 mm corner radius offers a compromise between edge strength and finish quality, supporting medium to heavy feeds without premature chipping. Selecting the appropriate chipbreaker and grade for the workpiece material and machining stability yields tangible advantages: fewer stoppages, consistent results and improved process reliability.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The CNMM160612-TRS T9235 insert is aimed primarily at machining steel, with the T9235 grade offering toughness suited to interrupted cuts and less stable conditions.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO CNMM holders?
Compatibility is achieved when the holder matches the ISO CNMM 160612 seat form and accepts the specified 6.35 mm thickness, 16 mm inscribed circle and clamping method; check the holder’s tolerance class and relief angle before fitting.

How does the TRS chipbreaker affect machining?
The TRS chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation, reducing recutting and supporting more consistent surface quality under interrupted or unstable cutting conditions.

What is the benefit of the CVD coating on this insert?
The chemical vapour deposition (CVD) coating increases surface hardness and thermal resistance while the carbide core preserves edge strength, extending life in abrasive conditions.

Which features should be checked before ordering replacement inserts?
Confirm the ISO code (160612), plate thickness (6.35 mm), inscribed circle (16 mm), relief angle (0°) and hole type (cylindrical) to ensure correct fit and performance with the existing holder.
