WNMG060408 T5125 ISO turning insert — CVD-coated carbide, trigon with cylindrical hole, Tungaloy

The WNMG060408 T5125 is an ISO-standard trigon turning insert designed for external and internal turning; optimised for cast iron machining where interrupted cuts and less stable set-ups require a tougher grade.

• CVD-coated carbide for high wear resistance
• Trigon shape with cylindrical hole for secure clamping
• Optimised for cast iron and interrupted cuts
• Double-sided chipbreaker and 0.8 mm corner radius

Improved process reliability through CVD-coated carbide

The use of a CVD-coated carbide grade provides marked improvements in wear resistance and consistent tool life, which directly supports higher productivity in batch and single-part production. The coating delivers thermal and abrasive protection on the cutting edge, reducing flank wear during continuous and intermittent operations. For operations where cutting conditions vary, this results in fewer unexpected tool changes and steadier output quality.

Secure clamping and stable turning for predictable results

The trigon plate geometry combined with a cylindrical hole and standard ISO form ensures reliable seating and torque transmission in compatible external holders and boring bars. Compatibility is determined by the insert form, relief angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness, so correct holder selection is essential for best performance. The 0° rake and standard geometry contribute to stable cutting forces, helping to protect the machine spindle and workpiece from chatter.

Optimised for cast iron and interrupted cutting conditions

The T5125 grade is formulated as a tougher, CVD-coated option specifically for machining cast iron in interrupted cuts and less rigid setups. The double-sided chipbreaker and 0.8 mm corner radius support controlled chip formation and improved surface integrity when facing changes in engagement or interrupted cuts. This combination promotes stable chip formation and repeatable part quality, reducing scrap and rework in mixed-production environments.
