CNMA 160608 T5105 — ISO turning insert (Tungaloy, CVD‑coated carbide)

The CNMA160608 T5105 Tungaloy insert is an ISO‑standard indexable insert for turning, designed for high‑speed machining of cast iron under stable cutting conditions.

• CVD‑coated carbide T5105 for wear resistance
• Rhombic 80° geometry with 0° clearance angle
• Corner radius 0.8 mm for improved edge strength
• 6.35 mm plate thickness, cylindrical hole design

Boosted productivity through material‑matched coating and grade

The CVD‑coated T5105 carbide grade delivers enhanced wear resistance specifically when machining cast iron at elevated cutting speeds. By combining a hard, adherent coating with a tough substrate, the insert sustains consistent cutting performance and reduces the frequency of index changes under stable process conditions. Compatibility with ISO‑defined holders ensures predictable fitment — the correct holder is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness, which helps maintain a stable tool set‑up and steady production throughput.

Geometry engineered for stable turning and predictable results

The rhombic 80° outline and 0° clearance angle provide a balance between strength and accessibility for external and internal turning operations. A 0.8 mm corner radius increases edge robustness for interrupted cuts and enhances heat distribution across the cutting edge, while the cylindrical hole supports secure clamping in inserts with hole fixation. Note that this insert is supplied without a chipbreaker, making it most suitable where cutting conditions and machine rigidity deliver controlled chip formation; selecting the appropriate chipbreaker and grade is essential when cutting less stable set‑ups.

Integration into ISO tooling systems and practical use cases

The insert forms part of a modular ISO turning system comprising the indexable insert, a matched external holder or boring bar, a backing plate/clamping set and replacement screws. This arrangement simplifies reconditioning and spare‑part management on the shop floor and supports quick changeover in production environments. When processing cast iron components at higher speeds, the CVD‑coated surface of the insert contributes to consistent surface finish and extended service life, while the rhombic shape offers versatile approach angles for a range of turning tasks.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The CNMA160608 T5105 insert is specified for machining cast iron, with the CVD‑coated T5105 grade optimised for wear resistance in high‑speed turning operations.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, the insert follows ISO conventions; compatibility is governed by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness and requires a matching ISO external holder or boring bar.

Does this insert include a chipbreaker?
No, this particular insert is supplied without a chipbreaker, so it is recommended for stable cutting conditions or in conjunction with a holder setup and process that control chip formation.

What are the key geometric specifications to check before fitting?
Verify the rhombic 80° geometry, 0.8 mm corner radius, 0° clearance angle and 6.35 mm plate thickness to ensure proper fit and performance.

How does the T5105 coating affect performance?
The T5105 CVD coating increases wear resistance at high cutting speeds and helps maintain cutting edge integrity when machining cast iron, contributing to longer tool life and consistent results.
