KNMX 160410 T9315 – Tungaloy indexable turning insert (ISO 160410), 1.0 mm radius

The KNMX160410 T9315 is an ISO-standard indexable turning insert intended for external and internal turning, offering robust edge stability and adaptable chip control in standard holder systems

• ISO-standard indexable insert, parallelogram shape
• Tungaloy T9315 grade for wear resistance
• 1.0 mm corner radius for robust edge strength
• Suitable for external and internal turning

Deliverable performance through a wear‑resistant grade

The KNMX160410 T9315 pairs a Tungaloy carbide grade with an ISO-conform geometry to provide consistent tool life and predictable performance. The applied grade focuses on a balance of wear resistance and edge toughness, which reduces downtime from frequent insert changes and supports higher productivity on stable setups. For customers seeking measurable returns, the combination of material and geometry contributes to longer operating periods between indexings and more uniform part quality.

Seamless integration with ISO holders for reliable clamping

Compatibility with standard toolholders is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness; the insert’s parallelogram form and 55° approach angle enable secure mounting and accessible indexing. The 0° clearance angle and defined 1.0 mm corner radius improve bulk‑material contact distribution, helping to maintain surface finish while protecting the cutting edge under moderate interruptions. Clear geometric standards make tool replacement straightforward and reduce setup variability in batch production.

Choice guidance and application relevance for turning tasks

Selection of chipbreaker and grade should follow the workpiece material, machining parameters and machine stability; the T9315 grade is intended to complement the insert geometry by offering a compromise between toughness and abrasion resistance. Where interrupted cuts or mixed materials are frequent, the emphasis on edge stability helps avoid catastrophic edge failure. For fine finishing passes, the stable geometry supports consistent surface quality, while coarser passes benefit from the robust edge strength; match the chipbreaker type to the material and desired chip form for best results.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The KNMX160410 T9315 insert is designed for general turning tasks; the Tungaloy T9315 grade provides a balance of wear resistance and toughness suitable across a broad range of typical turning materials when the correct chipbreaker is selected.

How does the 1.0 mm corner radius affect machining results?
A 1.0 mm corner radius on the KNMX160410 improves edge strength and helps maintain surface finish under moderate load, reducing the risk of edge chipping compared with very small radii.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, compatibility depends on matching the insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness; the KNMX160410 is manufactured to ISO specification for integration into compatible holders.

What is the meaning of the T9315 grade?
T9315 denotes a Tungaloy carbide composition optimised to combine wear resistance and edge stability, chosen to complement the insert geometry for productive turning.

Which chipbreaker should be used with this insert?
The chipbreaker must be chosen according to the workpiece material and machining conditions; the KNMX160410 is supplied with a special chipbreaker designation—select the variant that matches material and desired chip form.
