VBMT 110304 T6215 — ISO turning insert, PSS chipbreaker, rhombic geometry by Tungaloy

The VBMT 110304 T6215 is an ISO‑standard indexable insert designed for turning applications, optimised for stainless‑steel machining under stable to lightly interrupted cutting conditions

• ISO‑standard indexable insert
• CVD‑coated carbide T6215
• PSS chipbreaker for stainless steel
• Rhombic 11 mm size, 0.4 mm nose radius

Reliable performance for stainless‑steel turning

The combination of a CVD‑coated carbide substrate and the T6215 wear‑resistant grade provides predictable tool life when turning stainless steel under steady cutting conditions. This wear behaviour reduces unplanned tool changes and supports a more continuous production rhythm, which translates into improved machine utilisation and lower overall processing costs. The PSS chipbreaker is engineered to control chips for common stainless‑steel alloys, promoting safe chip evacuation and reducing the risk of surface damage.

Geometry and clamping compatibility that simplifies set‑up

The insert’s rhombic shape and ISO sizing ensure compatibility with a wide range of commercially available holders; form, relief angle and tolerance class determine exact fit. Key geometry values such as the 0.4 mm nose radius, 5° relief angle and 11 mm size balance edge strength with dimensional accuracy. The standardised mounting (including a cylindrical hole with single‑side countersink (40°–60°)) allows secure clamping and straightforward replacement, helping to minimise downtime during tool changes.

Productive cutting and process security

With a nominal cutting angle of 35° and a plate thickness of 3.18 mm, the insert offers a stable cutting edge that withstands moderate interruptions and consistent feed rates. The CVD coating increases resistance to adhesive and abrasive wear that is typical when machining stainless steels, while the PSS chipbreaker aids in producing shorter, more manageable chips. Together these features support repeatable surface finishes and dimensional control, making the insert a practical choice for batch production or single‑part runs where reliability is a priority.

Practical use and selection guidance

Select an insert grade and chipbreaker according to workpiece material, machining stability and cutting data. For stainless‑steel turning under stable conditions, the T6215 grade with the PSS geometry is a balanced option offering both wear resistance and chip control. When mounting, ensure the holder matches the ISO designation and thickness to preserve clamping integrity and to achieve the intended cutting performance.

FAQ

What materials is this insert designed for?
The insert is optimised for machining stainless steel; the T6215 CVD‑coated carbide grade and PSS chipbreaker are matched for wear resistance and chip control when turning stainless‑steel components.

Which holder type fits this ISO insert?
Any ISO‑compatible turning holder matching the VBMT110304‑PSS form, thickness (3.18 mm) and hole/countersink configuration will accept the insert; compatibility depends on holder form, relief and tolerance class.

How does the PSS chipbreaker improve machining?
The PSS chipbreaker produces controlled, short chips in stainless‑steel turning, enhancing process safety, reducing the risk of entanglement and improving surface integrity.

Is the coating suitable for interrupted cuts?
The CVD coating on grade T6215 provides good wear resistance; the insert performs best under stable to lightly interrupted cutting conditions rather than very heavy interruptions.

What are the key dimensions to check before ordering?
Verify the insert size (11 mm), thickness (3.18 mm), nose radius (0.4 mm) and the hole/countersink style to ensure correct fit with the chosen holder.
