DCMW 070208 T5115 turning insert by Tungaloy

The DCMW070208 T5115 is an ISO‑standard rhombic turning insert intended for external and internal turning, offering a universal grade for cast‑iron applications.

• ISO rhombic insert DCMW 070208
• CVD‑coated carbide grade T5115
• 7° relief angle and 55° cutting edge
• Suitable for external and internal turning

Reliable wear resistance for cast‑iron turning

The T5115 grade is a CVD‑coated carbide formulation designed as a universal solution for machining cast iron, balancing wear resistance and cutting‑edge stability. This results in consistent tool life across a variety of cast‑iron alloys and typical turning tasks. The coating reduces adhesive wear and improves resistance to built‑up edge formation, which helps to maintain dimensional accuracy over longer production runs while keeping process costs predictable.

ISO geometry and secure mounting for process stability

As an ISO‑standard insert in rhombic form, compatibility with holders is governed by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness. The insert is supplied with a hole and a cylindrical hole plus a single‑sided countersink (40°–60°) for positive location and secure clamping. Specified dimensions such as 2.38 mm thickness and the 07 size enable fast replacement within established tooling systems, simplifying inventory and reducing changeover time.

Geometry that supports consistent surface quality

A 55° cutting edge and a 0.8 mm corner radius provide a good compromise between strength and finish, making the insert suitable for many general turning tasks. Note that the insert is supplied without chipbreaker, which allows flexibility in selecting the optimal chip control strategy—either by matching the insert with a holder equipped for chip control or by adapting cutting parameters. The combination of geometry and grade supports steady cutting forces and reliable surface integrity when the cutting data and clamping are correctly matched.

Practical setup guidance and system considerations

The insert functions as part of a system consisting of the ISO insert, a matching external holder or boring bar, a shim or clamp set and replacement screws. For best results in production, choose the chipbreaker style and holder rigidity appropriate to the operation, and set feeds and speeds to suit the T5115 grade and the specific cast‑iron type. If uncertainty exists about the correct holder or cutting data, specifying the DCMW070208 designation and the Tungaloy grade will speed up recommendations and ensure the selected setup meets productivity and quality targets.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for? The Tungaloy DCMW070208 in grade T5115 is designed primarily for cast iron machining but can be used where the universal characteristics of the grade are appropriate.

Does the insert include a chipbreaker for chip control? This insert is supplied without chipbreaker, allowing selection of chip control by holder design or cutting parameters appropriate to the operation.

Which holders are compatible with the DCMW070208 insert? Compatibility depends on insert form, 7° relief angle, tolerance class, fastening style and the 2.38 mm thickness; matching an ISO rhombic external holder or boring bar is required.

How does the CVD coating affect performance? The CVD‑coating on the carbide improves wear resistance and cutting‑edge stability, reducing adhesive wear and helping to maintain consistent tool life in cast‑iron turning.

What does the 0.8 mm corner radius mean for finish and strength? A 0.8 mm corner radius provides a balance between edge strength and surface finish, suitable for many general turning tasks where moderate robustness and good finish are required.
