LNMX160608 T9115 LNMX indexable turning insert — ISO 160608, rectangular form, 0.8 mm radius — Tungaloy

LNMX160608 T9115 LNMX is an ISO‑standard, cemented‑carbide indexable insert designed for external and internal turning applications where a stable cutting edge and predictable wear behaviour are required

• ISO‑standard form for reliable holder compatibility
• T9115 grade with balanced wear resistance and toughness
• Rectangular 16 mm plate, 6.35 mm thickness
• 0.8 mm corner radius for controlled edge strength

Improve cycle times with material‑matched cutting performance

The LNMX series insert, specified here in the T9115 grade, is optimised to combine wear resistance with sufficient toughness, reducing unscheduled index changes and helping to maintain steady machining cycles. The cemented carbide substrate offers thermal stability during turning, while the chosen grade supports a broad range of steels and alloy types common in production environments. For manufacturers seeking reduced downtime, the outcome is more predictable tool life and fewer interruptions to the turning process.

Minimise setup complexity through ISO compatibility and robust geometry

Designed to the ISO‑160608 format, the insert guarantees dimensional and form compatibility with standard external holders when form, clearance angle and thickness match the tool body. The rectangular form and 6.35 mm thickness provide secure clamping and resistance to bending under moderate radial loads. The 0.8 mm corner radius supports a compromise between edge strength and surface finish, making the insert suitable for both roughing passes and light finishing where a consistent profile is required.

Select the right grade and chipbreaker for your application

The supplied grade complements the geometry by providing balanced edge stability and wear control; when combined with an appropriate chipbreaker and machining strategy the insert delivers repeatable results on a variety of steels and alloyed materials. Consider the stability of the setup and the intended cut depth: a stable system and correct feed will leverage the T9115 behaviour to extend index intervals and improve surface quality. For small lathes or heavy interrupted cuts, pairing the insert with the matching, rigid holder and appropriate clamp hardware is essential for consistent performance.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited for?
The LNMX160608 T9115 insert is intended for turning a wide range of steels and alloyed materials; the T9115 grade balances wear resistance and toughness for general turning tasks.

How does the 0.8 mm corner radius affect performance?
A 0.8 mm corner radius increases edge strength for more robust cutting and smoother transitions, helping to prevent premature chipping while still allowing acceptable surface finish.

Is this insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes. The insert conforms to the ISO‑160608 format and therefore matches holders designed for that ISO form, provided holder geometry, clearance and thickness are compatible.
