TNMG 160402 T9215 Tungaloy indexable insert for turning – CVD‑coated carbide, 60°

TNMG 160402 T9215 is an ISO‑compliant triangular indexable insert for external and internal turning, optimised for medium steel and designed for productive, repeatable machining.

• CVD‑coated carbide grade T9215
• Triangular 60° geometry for versatile turning
• Nose radius 0.2 mm for balanced finish and strength
• Double‑sided chipbreaker for stable chip control

Reliable ISO compatibility for predictable toolholding

The CVD‑coated carbide composition of this indexable insert ensures a combination of abrasion resistance and edge toughness that suits serial production. As an ISO‑normed turning plate, compatibility with a toolholder depends on the insert’s form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; these parameters determine secure clamping and repeatable positioning. The plate’s triangular shape and standard designation simplify holder selection across established tool systems, reducing setup variability and improving process reliability.

Consistent productivity and surface quality in medium‑steel turning

The geometry and tooling grade have been selected to deliver efficient material removal without sacrificing surface finish: the 60° geometry provides a robust cutting edge for longitudinal and facing operations, while the nose radius 0.2 mm balances edge strength with a fine machined finish. The double‑sided chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation during continuous to light interrupted cuts, lowering the risk of edge fracture and minimising unplanned downtime. Plate thickness of 4.76 mm and the cylindrical hole fixation support rigid clamping, which contributes to repeatable part quality and extended tool life under stable machining conditions.

Practical system guidance for straightforward integration

Selection of the appropriate chipbreaker and grade should follow the workpiece material, machining type and machine–holder stability; the T9215 grade is recommended as a first choice for medium steel, combining wear resistance with fracture toughness for higher productivity. The component system comprises the insert, a matching external holder or boring bar, a shim/clamping set and replacement screws — ensuring straightforward assembly and quick index changes. For production environments seeking consistent cycle times and reproducible results, this insert provides a pragmatic mix of durability and machining economy; technical queries can be addressed with targeted cutting parameters and holder recommendations.

FAQ

Is this insert suitable for medium steel machining?
The TNMG160402 T9215 Tungaloy indexable insert is specified for medium steel and is designed for continuous to light interrupted turning applications, offering a balance of wear resistance and edge toughness.

What effect does the nose radius have on the machined surface?
A nose radius of 0.2 mm reduces cutting forces and supports a fine surface finish while maintaining sufficient edge strength for typical finishing and semi‑finishing passes.

How is the insert fastened to the holder?
The insert uses a cylindrical centre hole for screw clamping; secure fixation requires a holder matching the insert’s form, clearance angle, tolerance class, size and thickness.

How does the double‑sided chipbreaker influence tooling economy?
The double‑sided chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and extends usable edge life by allowing indexing to alternate cutting faces; this improves overall tooling economy for repetitive turning tasks.

Which tooling components are required to build the cutting system?
A complete system comprises the ISO turning insert, a compatible external holder or boring bar, the appropriate shim/clamping set and replacement screws to ensure stable clamping and repeatable positioning.
