TNMG160408 T9225 TNMG Turning Insert by Tungaloy — CVD-coated carbide, 60° triangular

TNMG160408 T9225 is an ISO-format triangular indexable insert for turning, designed for medium to heavy steel machining where toughness and wear resistance are required

• TNMG160408 T9225 for medium–heavy steel turning
• CVD-coated carbide for extended edge life
• 60° triangular geometry with 0.8 mm radius
• Double-sided chipbreaker, cylindrical hole, 4.76 mm thick

High-performance cutting edge for longer tool life

The CVD-coated carbide grade T9225 offers a balance of hardness and toughness that supports stable machining under variable cutting conditions. The coating improves wear resistance and reduces flank wear, while the substrate provides the necessary impact strength for slightly interrupted cuts. With a 0.8 mm nose radius and a 60° triangular shape, the insert delivers reliable corner strength for turning operations, helping to extend service intervals and reduce tool changes — a direct contributor to improved process uptime and repeatable part quality.

ISO compatibility simplifies tool selection and system integration

As an ISO-format insert, this triangular plate fits into a wide range of holders when matched by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness. The cylindrical hole and standard dimensions (size 16, thickness 4.76 mm) allow straightforward replacement in existing tool systems. The double-sided design means two usable cutting edges per side, improving cost-efficiency per edge. Compatibility notes in the product series emphasise choosing the correct holder geometry and clamp parts to ensure secure seating and consistent cutting performance.

Practical advantages for everyday turning tasks

Intended primarily for turning, this grade is particularly suitable where changing engagement conditions demand extra toughness. The double-sided chipbreaker supports manageable chip formation across varying feeds and depths, which reduces manual intervention and helps maintain surface finish. For internal and external turning operations on steel, selecting this type of insert with an appropriate chipbreaker and machining parameters will support stable cutting and predictable tool life.
