TNMG160412 T5105 – ISO turning insert, CVD-coated carbide, for cast iron machining (Tungaloy)

The TNMG160412 T5105 is an ISO triangular turning insert designed for high-speed external and internal turning of cast iron under stable cutting conditions.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T5105
• Optimised for high-speed cast iron machining
• Double-sided chipbreaker for reliable chip control
• ISO TNMG 160412 triangular form

High-speed performance with controlled wear

The insert combines a CVD-coated carbide substrate with a wear-focused grade to deliver consistent cutting life during elevated cutting speeds. The CVD coating increases surface hardness and thermal stability, helping to reduce flank and crater wear in demanding cast iron operations. This results in longer intervals between indexings and predictable toolchange cycles, which supports efficient shop-floor planning and reduces unplanned downtime.

Geometric consistency for predictable surface quality

A 60° seating geometry coupled with a corner radius of 1.2 mm provides a reliable contact pattern that improves stability and part finish. The triangular form and standard ISO dimensions mean that toolholder compatibility is determined by seat form, clearance angle and thickness; the insert is supplied with a central cylindrical hole for secure clamping. The design supports repeatable part quality and reduced vibration when mounted correctly in matching TNMG holders.

Chip control and practical handling benefits

The double-sided chipbreaker and two usable cutting edges per side offer efficient chip formation and extended tool life per index. The insert thickness of 4.76 mm and the triangular 16 mm size ensure sufficient edge strength for interrupted cuts and moderate depths of cut. Replacement and indexing are straightforward in standard ISO toolholders, which simplifies inventory management and keeps changeover times short.

FAQ

What materials is this insert optimised for? The TNMG160412 T5105 insert is optimised for high-speed machining of cast iron; the CVD-coated carbide composition supports wear resistance under those conditions.

Can the insert be used in standard TNMG holders? Yes, the insert is ISO TNMG 160412 form and is compatible with holders that match the 60° seat, 16 mm size and 4.76 mm thickness specification.

How does the double-sided chipbreaker benefit production? The double-sided chipbreaker on the TNMG160412 T5105 improves chip control and allows use of multiple cutting edges, increasing usable tool life per insert and reducing index changes.

Is this grade suitable for interrupted cuts or heavier feeds? The combination of a robust 4.76 mm thickness and a 1.2 mm corner radius gives the insert adequate edge strength for interrupted cuts and moderate depths of cut in cast iron applications.

How should compatibility with a toolholder be verified? Compatibility should be checked against holder seat form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixing method and plate thickness; the insert’s ISO designation and central cylindrical hole facilitate secure clamping in matching holders.
