TNMG160404 T5115 TNMG Turning Insert — CVD-coated carbide, 60°, Tungaloy

A TNMG160404 T5115 turning insert engineered for ISO-standard external and internal turning, optimised for machining cast iron with stable edge life.

• CVD-coated carbide T5115 universal grade
• ISO-standard triangular insert, 60° angle
• 0.4 mm corner radius for precise finishing
• Double-sided chipbreaker; cylindrical hole

Longer tool life through balanced coating and grade

The combination of a CVD-coated surface and a purpose-designed grade provides enhanced wear resistance while maintaining cutting-edge stability, which directly reduces tool changes and machine downtime. This insert’s T5115 composition is a universal solution for cast-iron machining: it balances hardness and edge support so that turning operations deliver consistent surface quality and predictable tool life. The measured improvement in flank wear translates into fewer interruptions and more reliable cycle times on production runs.

Simple integration and ISO interchangeability

Designed to the ISO geometry, the triangular 16 mm insert with a 4.76 mm thickness and a cylindrical hole fits a broad range of standard holders when matching form, relief angle and tolerance class. The zero-degree relief angle and the 60° included angle make the insert suitable for both external and internal turning where compact geometry is required. Clear specification of size, thickness and hole style simplifies tool inventory management and speeds up changeovers, ensuring fast, repeatable set-up and stable clamping in approved toolholders.

Improved process reliability and controllable chip formation

A double-sided chipbreaker and a 0.4 mm corner radius support reliable chip control and permit fine finishing without sacrificing productivity. Controlled chip formation reduces the risk of tool or workpiece damage and eases handling at the machine, which is particularly beneficial in automated or high-throughput environments. The design therefore contributes to measurable production gains: longer uninterrupted runs, fewer quality reworks and improved operator confidence under varying cutting conditions.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for? This Tungaloy TNMG160404 T5115 insert is specified as a universal grade for machining cast iron, offering a balanced combination of wear resistance and edge stability suitable for a wide range of grey and nodular cast-iron applications.

How is chip control achieved with this insert? Chip control is managed by the double-sided chipbreaker integrated into the insert geometry; the combination of chipbreaker design and the T5115 CVD-coated carbide substrate promotes predictable chip breaking and safe evacuation.

Will the insert fit existing ISO holders? The insert follows ISO geometry (16 mm triangular form, 4.76 mm thickness, cylindrical hole); compatibility depends on matching the holder’s pocket form, relief angle and tolerance class, allowing straightforward interchangeability with compliant toolholders.

How does the 0.4 mm corner radius affect surface finish? A 0.4 mm corner radius strikes a balance between strength and finishability: it supports a durable cutting edge while enabling fine surface quality in finishing passes, reducing the need for additional finishing operations.
