DNMG150608 T5115 — Tungaloy turning indexable insert, CVD-coated cemented carbide

The DNMG150608 T5115 is an ISO rhombic indexable insert for turning, optimised for cast iron applications and designed to improve chip control and edge stability.

• CVD-coated cemented carbide T5115
• Optimised for cast iron machining
• Rhombic 55° geometry, 0° clearance
• Double-sided chipbreaker, with hole

Consistent performance for cast iron turning

The CVD-coated cutting grade T5115 combines a wear-resistant substrate with a thermally stable coating to deliver a balanced mix of wear resistance and edge stability when machining cast iron. This balance reduces unexpected tool failures and favours longer, predictable tool life, which in turn supports smoother production runs and lower rework rates. For workshops seeking to raise throughput without compromising surface finish, the coating helps maintain cutting-edge integrity under elevated cutting temperatures.

Compatibility and geometry that simplify setup

The rhombic insert form with a 55° lead angle and 0° clearance is suited to a wide range of turning tasks; the insert’s 15 mm inscribed circle and 6.35 mm thickness are standard dimensions for many ISO toolholders. The double-sided chipbreaker and cylindrical hole ensure secure clamping and consistent chip formation, while the geometry allows reliable cutting at varied depths of cut. Note that holder compatibility depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment, size and thickness; selecting the correct chipbreaker and grade according to material, machining type and machine stability is essential for optimal results.

Practical guidance for efficient turning operations

Suited for both external and internal turning, this indexable insert supports controlled chip control and improves overall productivity when paired with an appropriate holder and clamp set. The CVD coating reduces adhesion of iron-rich material at the cutting edge, lowering the risk of edge chipping under interrupted cuts and enabling steadier performance over the insert’s life. Keep replacement intervals predictable by monitoring wear on the cutting edge rather than on time alone; matching the insert with the correct holder and tightening sequence reduces vibration and extends tool life. If further machining data or application parameters are needed, technical assistance is available.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The Tungaloy DNMG150608 T5115 is a universal grade formulated primarily for cast iron machining and provides a balance between wear resistance and edge stability.

How does the CVD coating benefit machining performance?
A CVD-coated surface on this insert improves thermal resistance and reduces adhesion of iron-rich material, which helps maintain edge strength and extends usable tool life.

Can this insert be used for both external and internal turning?
Yes, the insert’s rhombic geometry and double-sided chipbreaker make it suitable for both external and internal turning operations when matched with an appropriate holder.

What should be checked for toolholder compatibility?
Compatibility depends on the insert’s form, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness; ensure the holder matches the 15 mm inscribed circle and 6.35 mm thickness for secure clamping.
