WNMA080404 T5115 — ISO turning insert for cast iron, Tungaloy

the WNMA080404 T5115 is an ISO-format trigon turning insert engineered for external and internal turning of cast iron, offering a balanced mix of wear resistance and edge stability

• CVD-coated carbide universal grade T5115
• Optimised for cast iron machining
• Trigon form with 80° lead angle
• 0.4 mm corner radius, cylindrical hole

Consistent cutting performance for cast iron turning

The insert is built from carbide with a CVD coating specified as T5115, designed as a universal grade for cast iron. This combination provides a reliable balance between wear resistance and edge robustness, reducing the frequency of index changes and contributing to predictable tool life. In practical shop-floor terms, that means fewer interruptions during batch runs and a steadier surface finish when working with grey and compacted graphite cast irons.

Clear compatibility and safe clamping

The component follows ISO insert geometry, so compatibility with ISO-standard external holders and boring bars is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness. The trigon plate and the cylindrical mounting hole ensure stable location in the pocket; the 80° approach angle supports versatile turning operations. When selecting a holder, match the insert form and size to the seat geometry and tightening specification to maintain repeatable clamping and safe chip evacuation.

Coating and material explained for predictable results

A CVD-deposited layer on a tungsten carbide substrate produces a hard, adherent surface that performs consistently under interrupted cuts and abrasive conditions commonly found in cast iron machining. The T5115 grade is formulated to offer broad workpiece coverage with an emphasis on process stability rather than maximal cutting speed; this leads to reproducible component quality and fewer unexpected edge failures. In short, the coating and substrate combination improves resistance to flank wear and helps keep dimensional control across serial production.

Productivity and operational benefits in the workshop

With a 0.4 mm corner radius and an 80° plate geometry, the insert supports conservative to medium depths of cut while preserving edge strength. The absence of an integrated chipbreaker means that chip control should be addressed via cutting parameters and holder geometry, selecting a chip-forming approach suited to the workpiece and machine rigidity. The net effect is an insert that promotes stable machining, straightforward index changes and predictable process windows—attributes that help lower overall unit costs through reduced rework and consistent cycle times.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for? The WNMA080404 T5115 Tungaloy turning insert is formulated as a universal grade for cast iron, offering a balanced combination of wear resistance and edge stability for grey and compacted graphite cast irons.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders? Yes. The insert follows ISO geometry; compatibility depends on matching the insert form, size and mounting hole to the holder seat, tolerance class and clamping method.

Does this insert include a chipbreaker? No. The insert is supplied without an integrated chipbreaker, so chip formation should be controlled by selecting appropriate cutting parameters and a suitable holder geometry.

What advantages does the CVD coating provide? The CVD-coated carbide substrate increases flank wear resistance and edge strength, supporting consistent performance under the abrasive conditions typical of cast iron machining.

What are the identifying numbers for ordering and stock? Refer to article number 6850349 and manufacturer SKU TUN6850349 when ordering the WNMA080404 T5115 Tungaloy turning insert.
