DNMG 150608 T505 ISO turning indexable insert — CVD-coated carbide for cast iron, rhombic 55° (Tungaloy)

The DNMG150608 T505 is an ISO-format indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, optimised for the economical machining of cast iron.

• CVD-coated carbide for cast iron machining
• ISO rhombic insert 55° lead angle
• 0.8 mm nose radius for edge strength
• Double-sided chipbreaker; cylindrical hole; 6.35 mm thick

Productive machining of cast iron with a CVD-coated grade

The DNMG150608 T505 grade combines a CVD-coated surface with a wear-resistant carbide substrate to deliver consistent cutting performance when machining cast iron. The coating reduces built-up edge and increases allowable cutting speeds, which contributes to lower cycle times and a better cost per part in medium- to high-volume turning operations. Selection of this grade supports stable chip formation and predictable tool life, making it suitable for interrupted cuts and variable workpiece stability.

Secure clamping and robust edge geometry for repeatable results

The rhombic 55° geometry and 0° relief angle ensure the insert seats reliably in standard ISO toolholders; the cylindrical hole and compatible fastening provide axial and radial support for torque transmission. A 0.8 mm nose radius offers a compromise between edge strength and surface finish, while the double-sided chipbreaker enables two cutting edges per face and stable chip control in typical cast-iron applications. These design elements together reduce vibration sensitivity and help maintain surface quality across batch runs.

System-oriented use and practical selection advice

As part of an ISO insert system, compatibility depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness; the plate’s 6.35 mm thickness and 15 mm nominal size make it suitable for a wide range of standard holders. The combination of grade, chipbreaker and cutting data should be chosen according to workpiece stability and desired cutting speed: this approach prioritises throughput while limiting wear-related downtime. For customers seeking process reliability, the technical data and the matching holder assembly ensure predictable performance and straightforward re-indexing during production.
