TCMT 090208 T5115 — Tungaloy triangular indexable insert, CVD-coated carbide, 60°

TCMT090208-PSS T5115 Tungaloy turning insert for ISO-spec external and internal turning applications, optimised for cast iron machining

• TCMT090208-PSS by Tungaloy, CVD-coated carbide
• Universal grade T5115 for cast iron machining
• 0.8 mm corner radius for robust cutting edges
• Cylindrical hole with single-sided countersink

Consistent edge life for cast-iron turning

The combination of CVD-coated surface and a wear-resistant carbide substrate yields a well-balanced performance that extends tool life while preserving cutting-edge integrity. The universal grade T5115 is formulated for Gusseisen (cast iron), offering an equilibrium between wear resistance and edge stability which reduces tool changes and supports continuous machining cycles. This balance makes the insert particularly suitable where predictable tool life and repeatable component quality are priorities; the coating minimises adhesive wear and contributes to consistent surface finish on the workpiece.

Secure seating and precise geometry for reliable clamping

Designed to ISO standards, the triangular 60° geometry and the 0.8 mm corner radius ensure stable cutting behaviour and repeatable positioning in compatible holders. The insert features a cylindrical hole with single-sided countersink (40°–60°) that enables secure fastening and straightforward orientation in a matching clamping system. With a plate thickness of 2.38 mm and standard size designation 09, the insert interfaces reliably with standard external holders and boring bars; compatibility is governed by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening type, size and thickness, which together guarantee repeatable rigidity and reduced vibration during turning.

Improved productivity through controlled chip formation

The integrated PSS chipbreaker is engineered to control chip shape and evacuation when machining cast iron, lowering the risk of built-up edge and easing chip handling in automated and manual setups alike. As part of a system that includes the insert, the appropriate external holder or boring bar, a clamping pad or set and replacement screws, the solution reduces downtime and supports higher material removal rates. The pragmatic choice of a universal, CVD-coated grade for Gusseisen simplifies tool management across varying workpiece grades while maintaining surface quality and process stability.

FAQ

Is this insert suitable for machining cast iron? Yes. The TCMT090208-PSS T5115 insert uses the universal T5115 grade, which is formulated for cast iron and provides a balance of wear resistance and edge stability suitable for Gusseisen machining.

Which toolholders fit this triangular insert? Compatibility is ISO-based; holders and boring bars that accept a 60° triangular insert with the stated size, thickness and hole style will fit the TCMT090208-PSS insert when form, clearance angle and fastening match the insert geometry.

How does the chipbreaker affect process stability? The PSS chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation during turning, reducing the likelihood of built-up edge and improving repeatable surface finish with the T5115 grade.

Can the insert be used for internal turning operations? Yes. The insert is suitable for both external and internal turning when mounted in an appropriate boring bar or holder designed for ISO triangular inserts.

What components are required to form a complete cutting system? A complete system comprises the indexable insert, a compatible external holder or boring bar, a clamping pad/klemmsatz and the correct replacement screws to ensure secure fastening and stable cutting performance.
