DNMG150604 T5105 – ISO turning insert for high-speed cast-iron machining, Tungaloy

The DNMG150604 T5105 is an ISO rhombic turning insert designed for external and internal turning, optimised for high-speed machining of cast iron under stable cutting conditions

• CVD-coated carbide grade T5105
• Optimised for high-speed cast-iron turning
• 55° rhombic geometry for stable cutting
• Cylindrical hole and secure clamping

Consistent wear resistance for productive high-speed turning

The CVD-coated carbide of grade T5105 provides a hard, thermally stable surface that reduces flank wear during extended high-speed cycles. This coating enhances abrasion resistance and supports higher cutting speeds compared with uncoated grades, resulting in longer intervals between index changes. For abrasive materials such as cast iron, this translates into a lower cost per part and more predictable tool performance.

Geometry and dimensions that improve surface finish and process control

A 55° rhombic geometry combined with a 0.4 mm corner radius offers a balance between edge strength and the capability to achieve fine surface finishes. The plate thickness of 6.35 mm and a nominal size of 15 mm ensure rigidity in most ISO-compatible holders, reducing vibration and improving dimensional accuracy. The negative angle combined with the geometry supports controlled chip flow and stable cutting forces.

Secure clamping and system compatibility for reliable production

The insert features a cylindrical hole and a standard ISO form, so compatibility with the toolholder depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, mounting method, size and thickness. A correctly matched holder, undersupport shim and clamping screw ensure repeatable seating and torque retention. Using the appropriate seat and clamping hardware prevents movement during interrupted cuts and contributes to consistent repeatability in batch production.

Practical guidance on chip control and application choice

This double-sided insert with a doppelseitig chipbreaker design is intended to be paired with a chipbreaker and grade chosen according to workpiece material, machining type and machine stability. For roughing on stable set-ups the grade's abrasion resistance supports higher feed rates; for finishing, the 0.4 mm corner radius helps achieve the required surface quality while preserving tool life. Select feeds and speeds to match the insert’s strengths for best results.
