TPMT 090204 T5115 Tungaloy turning insert — CVD-coated carbide, triangular 60° geometry

The TPMT090204 turning insert is an ISO‑standard triangular insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a balance of wear resistance and edge stability for cast iron applications.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T5115
• ISO‑standard triangular 60° insert
• Optimised for cast iron machining
• 0.4 mm corner radius for versatile finishing

Consistent performance where stable edges matter

The TPMT090204 is supplied as a CVD-coated carbide insert that combines a wear-resistant coating with a robust substrate to extend tool life under interrupted cuts and variable chip loads. The coating reduces flank wear while the substrate maintains the cutting-edge stability required for repeatable dimensions in series production. For shops aiming to reduce tool-change frequency and maintain surface quality, this geometry delivers a predictable balance between tool life and surface finish. The triangular form and single-sided chipbreaker translate directly into controlled chip flow and simplified stock removal on cast iron.

Mounting compatibility and practical set-up advantages

Designed to the ISO insert series, this triangular 60° insert features a cylindrical central hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°), enabling secure clamping in compatible external holders or boring bars. The ISO standard designation ensures interchangeability with a wide range of toolholders, while the specified clearance angle and tolerances support stable seating and repeatable register. Explaining the geometry: the 60° included angle determines approach and plunge capability; the 11° clearance reduces rubbing at the flank. These factors together minimise setup variables and help stabilise the cutting process.

Application focus: cast iron machining with controlled chip formation

The T5115 grade is positioned as a universal grade for cast iron, offering an optimised balance between wear resistance and edge strength. The insert’s single-sided chipbreaker is tuned to produce short, segmenting chips typical for grey and nodular cast irons, improving evacuation and reducing the risk of re-cutting. With a 0.4 mm radius, the insert supports both finishing passes and modest stock removal, enabling flexibility across roughing-to-finishing sequences. In practice, this leads to fewer interruptions, consistent tolerances and predictable tool-change scheduling in production environments.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for? The TPMT090204 T5115 insert is formulated primarily for cast iron machining; the T5115 grade provides a balance of wear resistance and edge stability for grey and nodular cast irons.

Which toolholders are compatible with this insert? Compatibility is determined by ISO form, free clearance angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness; the ISO‑standard triangular configuration fits holders and boring bars designed for TPMT‑style inserts.

What benefit does the CVD coating provide? A CVD-coated carbide surface increases abrasion resistance and reduces flank wear, extending service life under typical turning conditions encountered when machining cast iron.

How does the 0.4 mm corner radius affect results? A 0.4 mm radius offers a compromise between finishing quality and edge strength, permitting improved surface finish while maintaining resistance to edge chipping during moderate depth cuts.
