TNMG 160412 T6215 TNMG turning insert – CVD‑coated carbide, 1.2 mm nose radius (Tungaloy)

TNMG160412 T6215 is an ISO indexable turning insert intended for stable and repeatable machining of stainless steels under steady to lightly interrupted cutting conditions.

• CVD‑coated carbide grade T6215
• Triangular TNMG 16 insert, ISO 160412
• 1.2 mm nose radius for robust cuts
• Double‑sided chipbreaker, re‑indexable

Consistent performance through advanced coating and grade

The combination of a CVD‑coated carbide matrix and the T6215 grade delivers enhanced wear resistance and consistent edge life when machining stainless steels. The chemical vapour deposition layer improves substrate protection at elevated temperatures and reduces flank wear during prolonged turning cycles. For shops focused on reproducible component quality, the coated grade offers a favourable balance between durability and surface finish, particularly where stable clamping and cutting conditions are present. The insert belongs to the ISO turning family and is dimensioned for straightforward integration into standard indexable‑insert toolholders.

Geometry that secures accuracy and process stability

The triangular plate form with a 60° included angle and a 1.2 mm nose radius supports sturdy cutting action while preserving edge strength for medium‑to‑heavy feeds. The double‑sided chipbreaker provides two usable edges per indexation, effectively extending productive life before regrinding or replacement. A cylindrical hole enables positive clamping in compatible holders, and the 4.76 mm plate thickness increases resistance to chatter in less rigid set‑ups. This geometry combination enhances dimensional repeatability and surface integrity on turned parts, helping to reduce rework and downtime.

System compatibility and recommended use

Integration requires matching the insert form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening and size with a suitable holder or boring bar; the compatibility is defined by those parameters rather than the insert alone. The product is designed primarily for turning (external and internal) of stainless steels under stable to lightly interrupted conditions; select the chipbreaker and grade according to workpiece alloy, section rigidity and machining strategy. Indexing is simple: rotate to the next cutting edge to restore geometry. For multi‑operation workflows, maintaining consistent holder setup and coolant strategy preserves the coating benefits and maximises the insert’s service life.

FAQ

Which materials are best machined with this insert?
The TNMG160412 T6215 insert from Tungaloy is formulated for machining stainless steels, offering enhanced wear resistance under stable cutting conditions.

How many cutting edges are available per insert?
Thanks to its double‑sided chipbreaker design, the insert provides multiple indexable cutting edges to extend productive life before replacement.

What profile and holder compatibility are required?
Compatibility is determined by the insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; use a matching TNMG‑capable holder or boring bar for correct clamping and performance.

Can the insert handle interrupted cuts?
The T6215 grade is intended for stable to lightly interrupted conditions; it performs best where cutting forces remain relatively consistent and clamping is rigid.

What are the main benefits of the CVD coating?
The CVD coating on the TNMG160412 reduces flank wear at elevated temperatures and helps maintain cutting edge integrity, improving tool life and part consistency.
