LNMX 160616 T9115 ISO turning insert for turning (Tungaloy)

The LNMX160616 T9115 is an ISO-format turning insert designed for versatile external and internal turning, combining a balanced cutting-material grade with a rectangular form for reliable machining performance.

*ISO LNMX 160616 geometry, compatible holders
*Tungaloy T9115 grade for balanced wear resistance
*1.6 mm corner radius for controlled chip formation
*6.35 mm thickness, rectangular insert with special hole

Precision geometry for stable turning and predictable results

The ISO geometry of this insert ensures consistent seating and repeatable results in suitable holders; the ISO form simplifies indexable-changeover and reduces setup variability. Thanks to the rectangular shape and a defined 0° clearance angle, the insert delivers a predictable contact zone and reduced vibration when paired with a correctly specified toolholder. For production environments this leads to more stable feeds and surface finishes, while the standardised format supports rapid insert replacement and minimises downtime.

Cutting material and grade engineered for durability and edge integrity

The combination of carbide substrate and the T9115 grade provides a balanced mix of wear resistance and toughness, supporting both moderate interrupted cuts and continuous finishing passes. The grade has been selected to complement the insert geometry, improving cutting-edge stability and extending time between index changes. The 1.6 mm corner radius reduces local stress at the cutting edge and helps to shape chips for easier evacuation, which is particularly beneficial in medium-duty turning where long tool life and consistent dimensional accuracy are priorities.

System compatibility and practical application advice

Compatibility with holders is determined by insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; the ISO designation facilitates selection of suitable external or internal holders and clamping kits. The insert’s special hole and chipbreaker style require the corresponding clamp and screw arrangement to achieve the rated performance. When integrating into an existing tool system, select a holder rated for the LNMX geometry and verify that the clamp aligns with the special hole style to secure correct seating and torque distribution.

FAQ

What workpiece materials is this insert suitable for?
The T9115 grade is formulated to offer a balanced performance across a wide range of steels and common engineering materials; the LNMX160616 insert from Tungaloy is therefore suitable for general-purpose turning where a compromise between wear resistance and toughness is needed.

How is holder compatibility ensured for this ISO insert?
Compatibility depends on the ISO form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening type, size and thickness; selecting a holder designed for LNMX 160616 geometry and the special-hole clamp arrangement ensures correct seating and secure clamping.

What advantage does the 1.6 mm corner radius provide?
A 1.6 mm corner radius increases cutting-edge strength, reduces chipping risk on interrupted cuts and helps to generate chips that are easier to control, which improves surface finish and tool life in many turning operations.

Is the insert suitable for finishing as well as roughing?
The insert’s combination of the T9115 grade and its geometry allows use in both finishing and medium roughing, provided cutting data and toolholder rigidity are adapted to the operation and workpiece material.

Which SKU and article number should be quoted when ordering?
Quote article number 6861505 or manufacturer SKU TUN6861505 for the LNMX160616 T9115 turning insert to ensure the correct Tungaloy part is supplied.
