TNMG 160412 T6215 triangular turning insert by Tungaloy — CVD-coated carbide for stainless steel turning

TNMG160412 T6215 is a triangular ISO turning insert designed for external and internal turning of stainless steels under stable to slightly interrupted cutting conditions.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T6215
• Optimised for stainless steel turning
• Double-sided chipbreaker, robust cutting
• 16 mm triangular insert, 1.2 mm radius

Durable cutting performance for demanding stainless steel applications

The CVD-coated carbide construction provides high wear resistance and thermal stability, which extends service intervals and maintains cutting-edge integrity in continuous operation. The T6215 grade is formulated for machining stainless steel, offering a balance between hardness and toughness that reduces flank wear and minimises edge chipping. Thanks to the combination of coating and substrate, the insert supports consistent dimensional accuracy and improved component surface quality, helping to maintain production throughput without frequent insert changes.

Simple integration with ISO tooling for predictable setups

As an ISO-standard indexable component, the triangular insert fits a broad range of external holders and boring bars when matched by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The insert features a 16 mm inscribed circle, 4.76 mm plate thickness and a 1.2 mm corner radius, with a cylindrical hole for secure fastening. The 60° geometry and 0° clearance contribute to stable seating and repeatable cutting conditions, reducing setup time and easing inventory management across toolrooms that follow ISO standards.

Enhanced chip control and cost-effective productivity

Equipped with a double-sided chipbreaker, the insert offers controlled chip formation for a wide variety of feed and depth settings, supporting safer swarf evacuation and consistent surface finishes. Being double-sided increases the number of available cutting edges per insert, which lowers per-edge cost and improves overall process economics. The design supports efficient material removal while maintaining edge stability, making the insert a reliable choice for manufacturers seeking steady productivity gains and repeatable results on corrosion-resistant alloys.
