TNMG160408 T6215 TNMG turning insert by Tungaloy — CVD-coated carbide for turning rostfreier Stahl

TNMG160408 T6215 is an ISO-standard indexable turning insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a wear-resistant coating and a chip control geometry for stable to lightly interrupted cutting conditions.

• ISO TNMG geometry for standard toolholders
• CVD-coated carbide grade T6215 for wear resistance
• Double-sided chipbreaker for dependable chip control
• 0.8 mm nose radius for stable surface finish

Greater process reliability through a wear-resistant grade

The CVD-coated carbide T6215 provides a consistent edge life when machining rostfreier Stahl, which reduces unplanned tool changes and stabilises cycle times. The coating improves resistance to abrasive and adhesive wear during steady and slightly interrupted cuts, delivering predictable tool life and less variability in batch production. This contributes directly to lower unit costs and smoother production planning while maintaining machining integrity.

Fast integration into existing ISO tool systems lowers setup time

Built to ISO dimensions, the triangular insert integrates easily with common external holders and boring bars; compatibility is determined by geometry, clearance, tolerance class, fastening and thickness. The 16 mm inscribed circle and 4.76 mm thickness match standard holder pockets, while the 0° clearance and 60° included angle conform to typical TNMG seating. Fewer adjustments are required at tool change, shortening downtime and simplifying inventory management for workshops that rely on standardised tooling.

Improved chip control and surface quality with a dual chipbreaker

The double-sided chipbreaker channels chips reliably, reducing re-cutting and smoothing the cutting process for both external and internal turning. Better chip control supports consistent surface finish and lowers the risk of workpiece damage or machine stoppages. For jobs where surface integrity matters, the chipbreaker geometry promotes predictable chip formation and easier swarf handling in automated or manual setups, aiding repeatable part quality.

Practical system approach for flexible workshop use

As part of an ISO insert system, the insert is intended to be used with a compatible holder, clamping set and fastening screws; spares and replacements are straightforward to manage. The insert's triangular form allows indexing to present fresh cutting edges, extending per-insert productivity and reducing tooling stock pressure. Technical guidance is available to match the insert grade and chipbreaker to cutting data, material condition and machine rigidity, ensuring the chosen solution aligns with the required part tolerances and cycle times.
