WNMG 080408 T9215 indexable turning insert, TF chipbreaker — Tungaloy

A WNMG080408-TF T9215 indexable turning insert designed for general external and internal turning of medium steels, optimised for continuous to slightly interrupted cuts.

• CVD-coated carbide for durable cutting performance
• TF chipbreaker for predictable chip control
• Trigon form with 0.8 mm corner radius
• ISO‑standard 080408 insert, 0° relief

Consistent cutting performance for medium steels

The CVD‑coated carbide grade T9215 is formulated for medium steel machining, combining high wear resistance with sufficient fracture toughness to maintain tool life under steady machining conditions. This leads to fewer insert changes and more consistent component dimensions. The TF chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation, which reduces process disturbances and supports stable productivity in both external and internal turning operations.

Geometry and coating that reduce downtime

A trigon form with a 0.8 mm corner radius provides a robust edge for general turning tasks while preserving surface quality. The coating, applied by chemical vapour deposition, increases resistance to abrasive wear and adhesion at elevated temperatures. Together, geometry and CVD coating extend effective cutting intervals, lowering overall tool change frequency and improving machine utilisation without compromising component finish.

Secure fastening and straightforward integration

Compatibility with toolholders is determined by form, relief angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness; this insert matches ISO‑standard holders for straightforward mounting. The insert features a cylindrical hole for positive clamping and a plate thickness of 4.76 mm, enabling repeatable seating and consistent cutting geometry. Such predictability simplifies process setup and reduces time spent on adjustment and verification.

Practical benefits for production workflows

Selected for continuous to slightly interrupted cuts, this grade and chipbreaker combination is suited to productive turning cycles where steady metal removal and dimensional stability are required. The insert’s design supports easy handling and replacement, and the ISO standard designation aids inventory management across toolrooms. Performance characteristics translate into measurable savings through reduced tool turnover and improved cycle consistency.
