LNMX 160608 T9115 turning insert for turning — Tungaloy ISO turning insert

A LNMX160608 T9115 indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a stable cutting edge and easy integration into standard ISO toolholder systems.

• ISO‑standard turning insert LNMX160608 T9115
• Cemented carbide body for reliable durability
• 0° clearance angle for stable external turning
• 0.8 mm corner radius for precise finishes

Improved productivity through a wear‑balanced grade

The cutting edge is manufactured from cemented carbide in the T9115 grade, a combination optimised for a balance of wear resistance and toughness. That balance reduces flank and crater wear under typical turning operations and therefore extends productive cutting time between indexings. Because the insert complies with ISO dimensions, it integrates reliably into common holders; the result is predictable tool life and fewer unscheduled interventions on the machine, which supports higher throughput and lower unit costs.

Geometry and system compatibility for stable machining

The rectangular form, a 0° clearance angle and a 0.8 mm corner radius give this insert intrinsic rigidity and a controlled cutting engagement that benefits finishing passes and dimensionally critical work. The insert’s 6.35 mm thickness and special hole style require a matching clamping kit and underlay plate to achieve repeatable seating. The insert is intended to be used as part of a system—indexable insert, compatible external holder or boring bar, shim/clamp set and replacement screws—so verifying holder form, clearance specification and tolerance class ensures correct fitting and repeatable component accuracy.

Practical selection advice for reliable part quality

For efficient process planning, pair the insert grade and chipbreaker selection with the workpiece material and the stability of the set‑up. The Tungaloy grade complements the chosen geometry by prioritising a long‑lasting cutting edge and stable chip formation, helping to maintain surface finish and dimensional stability across production runs. The item is listed under SKU TUN6861501 and is suited to a range of turning tasks where consistent edge control and straightforward insert indexing are required.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The LNMX160608 T9115 insert is designed for general turning applications; match the T9115 grade and the chosen chipbreaker to the specific workpiece material for optimal performance.

How does the 0° clearance angle affect machining?
A 0° clearance angle increases support behind the cutting edge and improves stability during external turning, which helps to maintain dimensional accuracy under moderate to heavy cuts.

Can the insert be used in my existing ISO holder?
Compatibility depends on holder form, free angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; verify these parameters against the LNMX160608 dimensions before mounting.

What is the recommended system for mounting this insert?
Use a matching external holder or boring bar together with the correct underlay/shim, clamp set and replacement screws to ensure repeatable seating and secure clamping of the insert.

Is the LNMX160608 T9115 suitable for finishing operations?
Yes — the 0.8 mm corner radius and stable grade make the insert well suited to finishing passes where surface quality and dimensional control are required.
