DNMG150408 T6215 Tungaloy turning insert — CVD-coated carbide, 55° geometry

The DNMG150408 T6215 Tungaloy turning insert is an ISO-standard rhombic indexable insert designed for external and internal turning of stainless steels, offering wear-resistant cutting performance in stable machining setups.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T6215 for wear resistance
• ISO DNMG150408 geometry, 55° cutting angle
• Rhombic 15 mm plate with 0.8 mm corner radius
• Double-sided chipbreaker and cylindrical hole

Consistent wear resistance for stainless-steel turning

The CVD-coated carbide grade T6215 provides a balanced combination of wear protection and edge stability, making the insert well suited to turning stainless steels in stable to slightly interrupted cuts. The coating reduces flank wear and helps maintain surface quality over multiple edge lives, which lowers the cost per component. Compatibility is governed by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; matching the insert to the correct ISO holder ensures secure clamping and repeatable results.

System-friendly geometry that simplifies changeovers

With a rhombic 15 mm format, a plate thickness of 4.76 mm and a cylindrical hole, the insert integrates easily into standard ISO turning systems. The double-sided chipbreaker provides two usable cutting edges per side, extending service intervals and improving stock utilisation. The 55° cutting angle and 0.8 mm corner radius support a compromise between strength and finish: the radius helps protect the cutting edge during interrupted cuts while contributing to a consistent surface finish on the workpiece.

Process gains through predictable chip control and edge life

Good chip control from the selected chipbreaker and the robust substrate reduces machining interruptions and cleaning effort, which directly benefits throughput and machine utilisation. Using this ISO-configured insert with an appropriate holder and clamping set improves positional repeatability and minimises the risk of runout-related tool damage. For practical selection, consider the combination of chipbreaker style and grade when moving between light finishing and heavier turning operations; the balanced properties of this insert contribute to stable machining and reliable results.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The DNMG150408 T6215 Tungaloy insert is specified for machining stainless steels under stable to lightly interrupted cutting conditions and performs best when matched with the correct chipbreaker and holder.

How does the T6215 grade affect tool life?
The T6215 CVD-coated grade offers enhanced wear resistance and edge protection compared with uncoated substrates, which helps to extend edge life and maintain consistent surface finish during turning.

Which holders are compatible with this insert?
Compatibility depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; use an ISO DNMG-compatible external or internal turning holder with the correct clamp or screw to secure the insert.

How many cutting edges are available per insert?
The rhombic, double-sided design provides multiple usable edges; once a cutting edge reaches wear limits, the insert can be indexed to present the next usable edge.

Is this insert suitable for interrupted cuts?
Yes — the carbide substrate and the 0.8 mm corner radius give the insert sufficient robustness for lightly interrupted cuts, but heavily interrupted or unstable setups may require a different geometry or a more robust grade.

What is the purpose of the cylindrical hole?
The cylindrical hole ensures secure axial and radial location in the clamp seat, improving repeatability and reducing the risk of movement under load.
