TPMT 130304 T5115 turning insert (TPMT130304-CM) by Tungaloy — CVD-coated carbide, 60° triangle

TPMT130304-CM T5115 is an ISO-format indexable turning insert designed for efficient external and internal turning of cast iron, featuring a chipbreaker matched to the material and operation.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T5115 for cast iron
• Triangle 60° form, 13 mm inscribed circle
• 0.4 mm corner radius for accurate profiles
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

High productivity and longer edge life for cast-iron turning

The CVD coating on this carbide grade offers an excellent balance between wear resistance and edge stability, which translates to longer tool life during abrasive cast-iron operations. The universal grade T5115 is tuned to reduce flank wear while maintaining cutting-edge robustness, resulting in fewer index changes and more productive machining cycles. Improved edge retention reduces unplanned interventions and supports stable process windows in series production.

ISO compatibility that simplifies tool planning and changeovers

Designed as part of an ISO turning insert system, the geometry and dimensions ensure interoperability with standard external holders, boring bars and clamping sets when the correct form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening and thickness are observed. The triangular 60° shape with a 13 mm inscribed circle and a plate thickness of 3.18 mm provides a compact clamping package; the insert features a cylindrical hole with single-sided countersink (40°–60°) for secure attachment. Understanding these parameters simplifies tool selection and reduces setup time across multiple machines.

Consistent chip control and dimensional accuracy for repeatable parts

The CM chipbreaker is optimised for cast iron, promoting short, controllable chips and reliable evacuation even under interrupted cuts. A corner radius of 0.4 mm supports accurate profile generation while reducing cutting forces, and the 11° relief angle helps maintain stable contact at the cutting edge. Together, these features improve surface finish and dimensional repeatability, especially in medium to heavy-duty turning applications where consistent results are essential.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The Tungaloy TPMT130304-CM T5115 is a universal grade developed primarily for machining cast iron; the T5115 grade combines wear resistance with edge stability for that material.

How does the CM chipbreaker affect machining?
The CM chipbreaker promotes short, controlled chips for cast-iron turning, improving evacuation and reducing the risk of entanglement while supporting consistent surface finish and tool life.

Which holder parameters must be checked for compatibility?
Compatibility depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening, inscribed circle, thickness and shape; ensure the holder matches the ISO triangular 60° geometry and the 3.18 mm plate thickness.

Is the hole geometry suitable for standard clamping systems?
Yes — the insert has a cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink at 40°–60°, designed for secure clamping with compatible ISO-style screws and shims.

What performance benefits does the T5115 grade deliver?
T5115 offers an optimised balance of wear resistance and edge stability, enabling longer cutting intervals and reliable performance in cast-iron applications.
