LNMX160612 T9115 Tungaloy insert — ISO rectangular turning insert, 1.2 mm corner radius

The LNMX160612 T9115 Tungaloy insert is an ISO‑standard rectangular indexable insert designed for both external and internal turning where a balance of wear resistance and edge stability is required.

• ISO‑standard rectangular insert
• Tungaloy T9115 carbide grade
• 1.2 mm cutting edge radius
• 6.35 mm plate thickness

Consistent wear resistance and edge stability for turning operations

The combination of Tungaloy’s T9115 grade and carbide construction provides a balance between wear resistance and toughness that supports reproducible cutting performance. This grade stabilises the cutting edge under intermittent and continuous cuts, reducing the frequency of insert changes and supporting longer production runs. With the ISO format and standardised datum positions, the plate integrates into existing tool systems while maintaining repeatable orientation, contributing to reliable cycle times on turning centres.

Improved rigidity and surface quality from optimised geometry

A 1.2 mm corner radius and a plate thickness of 6.35 mm increase stiffness at the cutting zone, which helps to reduce vibration and enhance surface finish during both roughing and light finishing passes. The rectangular shape and robust plate dimensions deliver mechanical stability, while the specified 0° relief angle aligns the cutting geometry for typical turning movements. The presence of a dedicated chipbreaker (special) supports controlled chip formation; selecting the appropriatebreaker and insert grade enables optimisation of chip flow and reduces the risk of built‑up edge.

System compatibility and practical integration for production

The insert is part of the ISO turning plate family and must be matched to a compatible holder and clamping system; compatibility depends on the form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The system build typically comprises the ISO indexable plate, a matching external holder or boring bar, a backing/clip set and replacement screws. For practical planning, identify the holder interface and tolerance class first, then select the indexable insert geometry and T9115 grade that best suit the intended material and machining strategy.

FAQ

What applications suit this insert best?
The LNMX160612 T9115 Tungaloy insert is intended for external and internal turning; the T9115 grade complements the geometry for general turning tasks that require a balance of wear resistance and toughness.

How does the T9115 grade affect performance?
T9115 is a Tungaloy carbide grade formulated to provide stable edge life and balanced wear resistance, improving repeatability in turning operations without sacrificing toughness at the cutting edge.

Which parameters determine holder compatibility?
Compatibility is defined by the insert form, 0° relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, overall size (16 mm) and plate thickness (6.35 mm); matching these parameters ensures correct seating and stable clamping.

Is special tooling required for the insert’s hole and chipbreaker?
The insert uses a special hole and chipbreaker style; corresponding holders and clamping sets or backing plates that accept the special hole and secure the plate are required for correct function.

What is the correct part number for order and reference?
Reference the manufacturer article number 6861587 or the manufacturer SKU TUN6861587 when ordering the LNMX160612 T9115 Tungaloy turning insert
