TPMT 130308 T6215 – ISO triangular turning insert, CVD-coated, 60° (Tungaloy)

TPMT 130308 T6215 is an ISO-standard triangular insert engineered for productive external and internal turning of stainless steels under stable to lightly interrupted conditions.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T6215 for wear resistance
• Triangular 60° geometry for versatile turning
• PS chipbreaker tuned for stainless steel performance

Longer tool life through optimised carbide and coating

The combination of a CVD-coated surface and a wear-resistant carbide substrate (grade T6215) extends service intervals and reduces unplanned tool changes. CVD (chemical vapour deposition) forms a thin, hard layer that enhances thermal and abrasive resistance; this makes the insert particularly suitable for machining stainless steel where heat and adhesive wear can accelerate flank deterioration. The result is a measurable increase in tool life and repeatable component quality, which supports steady production rhythms and predictable tooling costs.

Geometry and dimensions that support reliable machining

A consistent 60° geometry and an 0.8 mm corner radius provide stable cutting engagement and a favourable balance between strength and edge definition. With a 3.18 mm thickness and a nominal inscribed circle of 13 mm, the triangular silhouette offers three usable cutting edges per index, improving cost-efficiency per edge. The 11° relief promotes secure clamping and reduces rubbing at the flank, while the central hole with cylindrical bore and a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) ensures compatibility with a wide range of ISO holders. These attributes combine to deliver predictable chip formation and reduced vibration during both external and internal turning.

Chip control and process stability for stainless-steel turning

The PS chipbreaker is designed to manage the characteristic long, ductile chips produced when machining stainless steels, promoting controlled fragmentation and reliable evacuation from the cutting zone. Controlled chip flow reduces the risk of surface damage and helps maintain consistent cutting forces, which in turn contributes to dimensional stability and surface finish. Where interrupted cuts occur, the insert’s robust edge geometry and the T6215 substrate help preserve the cutting edge, supporting repeatable performance across batch runs and small-series production.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The TPMT130308-PS T6215 is optimised for machining stainless steels; the CVD coating and PS chipbreaker support wear resistance and chip control when turning rostfreier Stahl.

How does the PS chipbreaker affect machining performance?
The PS chipbreaker on the insert promotes controlled chip fragmentation for stainless-steel turning, improving evacuation and reducing the likelihood of surface damage during cutting.

Can this insert be used for interrupted cuts?
Yes, the T6215 substrate and the robust edge geometry of the TPMT130308-PS provide good resistance to shock loads, making it suitable for stable to lightly interrupted conditions.

Which holder characteristics must be checked for compatibility?
Compatibility is determined by the insert’s form, relief angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness; ensure the chosen holder matches these parameters for secure seating of the insert.

What are the key dimensions to consider when specifying this insert?
Key dimensions include the 13 mm inscribed circle, 3.18 mm thickness, 0.8 mm corner radius and the 60° included angle; these influence cutting engagement and holder selection.
