DNMG150608 T5115 — DNMG turning insert (CVD-coated) by Tungaloy

A DNMG150608 T5115 indexable insert designed for general turning applications, optimised for cast iron and reversible use.

• CVD-coated carbide for high wear resistance
• Universally suited to cast iron turning
• Double-sided chipbreaker for economical indexing
• Rhombic 55° form with 0.8 mm corner radius

Reliable cutting performance for cast iron and general turning

The DNMG150608 T5115 is built on a CVD-coated carbide substrate that balances wear resistance with edge stability, making it a dependable choice for productive cast iron machining. The T5115 grade offers a universal performance profile that reduces the need for frequent insert changes and supports longer uninterrupted cycles. This combination results in improved process reliability and consistent component quality when turning exterior and interior diameters.

Secure clamping and economical indexing reduce tooling costs

Designed as a rhombic ISO plate with a 55° included angle and a 0° clearance, the insert ensures predictable cutting geometry across common turning set-ups. The plate’s cylindrical hole and standard dimensions (15 mm size, 6.35 mm thickness) enable stable attachment to compatible holders and boring bars. The double-sided chipbreaker provides two cutting edges per index, translating into immediate cost savings through extended insert life and reduced waste. The 0.8 mm corner radius gives a compromise of edge strength and surface finish for many cast iron turning tasks.

System compatibility and practical handling in workshop workflows

This insert is part of an ISO indexable turning plate system: correct performance depends on matching the plate form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness with the chosen holder, shim and clamping screws. The CVD coating supports consistent chip formation and reduces flank wear under standard feeds and depths for cast iron. For internal operations the same principles apply when the plate is paired with a suitable boring bar. Metav Werkzeuge can advise on the matching outer holder or boring bar, the required underlay/shim and the correct replacement screws to ensure secure mounting and optimal cutting behaviour.

Practical benefits for production and process planners

Adopting the DNMG150608 T5115 provides measurable advantages in batch and continuous turning setups: fewer index changes, stable edge life due to the CVD-coated surface, and improved chip control from the double-sided chipbreaker. The standard geometry simplifies tool management across machines and operators while ISO conformity eases procurement and storage logistics. For operations focused on cost-efficiency and repeatable results in cast iron, this plate offers a robust technical basis for reliable output.

FAQ

Is the insert suitable for both external and internal turning?
The DNMG150608 T5115 insert is suitable for both external and internal turning when used with an appropriate outer holder or boring bar and correct clamping geometry.

Which materials is this grade intended for?
The T5115 grade is a universal choice primarily designed for cast iron, offering a balanced combination of wear resistance and edge stability for reliable turning.

How does the double-sided chipbreaker benefit production?
The double-sided chipbreaker on the DNMG150608 provides two usable cutting edges per insert, improving economy through reversible indexing and promoting consistent chip formation for stable machining.

What determines compatibility with a toolholder?
Compatibility depends on the plate form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening type, plate size and thickness; these aspects should match the holder specifications for the DNMG150608 T5115 to ensure secure clamping and correct cutting geometry.

What effect does the 0.8 mm corner radius have on machining?
A 0.8 mm corner radius offers increased edge strength compared with smaller radii, supporting moderate feeds and depths while contributing to a good compromise between component surface finish and insert durability.
