TNMG 160404 T9215 turning insert — CVD‑coated carbide, 60° triangle (Tungaloy)

The TNMG 160404 T9215 is an ISO‑standard triangular turning insert for external and internal turning, offering a 60° shape and CVD‑coated carbide designed for productive machining of medium steels.

• ISO‑standard triangular form
• CVD‑coated carbide grade T9215
• Suitable for medium steel; high wear resistance
• Dual‑sided chipbreaker with 60° geometry

High productivity through wear‑resistant cutting-grade

The CVD‑coated T9215 grade pairs a robust carbide substrate with a wear‑resistant coating to extend tool life under continuous and lightly interrupted cuts. This combination increases machining uptime and reduces indexing frequency, which in turn improves overall throughput. The CVD‑coated layer helps to maintain edge integrity at common cutting speeds for medium‑strength steels, meaning fewer tool changes and steadier surface finishes. For operations prioritising consistent cycle times, the selection of this grade supports predictable performance and lower process variation.

Reliable fit and secure clamping for ISO tool systems

The insert follows the ISO designation TNMG160404, ensuring compatibility with standard TNMG pockets when holder form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness match. The 60° geometry and triangular outline create stable seating in the pocket; the presence of a cylindrical centre hole allows positive clamping and repeatable seating. Clear technical alignment between insert and holder reduces set‑up time and improves reproducibility of axial and radial positions, which benefits batch production that requires interchangeability across multiple machines.

Controlled chip formation and adaptable application profile

Equipped with a double‑sided chipbreaker, the insert supports efficient chip control for a range of turning conditions, notably external and internal turning of medium steels. The chipbreaker geometry promotes shorter, manageable chips that reduce the risk of entanglement and help maintain coolant flow across the cutting zone. Matching the chipbreaker and the T9215 grade to the workpiece material and the intended cutting strategy yields a balance between wear resistance and fracture toughness, enabling higher material removal rates without compromising process security.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited for?
The TNMG160404 T9215 insert is optimised for medium‑strength steels; the T9215 grade and CVD‑coating provide a balance of wear resistance and toughness suitable for productive steel turning.

Is the insert compatible with standard TNMG holders?
Compatibility relies on matching holder form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening and plate size; the TNMG160404 designation conforms to ISO forms used in standard TNMG pockets.

What is the purpose of the double‑sided chipbreaker?
The double‑sided chipbreaker on the TNMG 160404 T9215 helps produce shorter, controllable chips, improving coolant access and reducing entanglement risk during continuous and lightly interrupted cuts.

Does this insert support internal turning as well as external turning?
Yes — the insert is suitable for both external and internal turning when used in the correct holder and with appropriate cutting parameters.

How is the insert secured in the holder?
The triangular TNMG form with a cylindrical centre hole enables positive clamping; secure seating depends on correct holder geometry and fastening components
