DCMT 070208 T6215 — Indexable turning insert by Tungaloy (for turning)

DCMT 070208 T6215 is an ISO rhombic turning insert designed for stable to lightly interrupted turning of stainless steels, delivering consistent tool life and chip formation.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T6215
• Suited to stainless steel turning operations
• Rhombic 07 geometry with 55° wedge angle
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

Proven wear resistance for productive stainless-steel turning

The CVD-coated carbide of grade T6215 ensures high wear resistance under stable cutting conditions, which translates into longer tool life and fewer indexings. As an indexable insert with ISO 07 geometry, it is optimised for turning operations where predictable performance is required. The controlled coating structure improves abrasion resistance and reduces flank wear, so machining cycles remain productive and downtime for tool changes is reduced. This benefit is particularly relevant in batch production and series machining where process stability matters most.

Secure clamping and straightforward toolholder compatibility

The insert’s rhombic 07 form, 55° wedge angle and defined relief angle (7°) allow precise seating in standard ISO holders; compatibility depends on form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness. The cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°) provides stable fastening and repeatable positioning when used with matching carriers and clamping sets. Clear specification of geometry and thickness (2.38 mm) simplifies selection of a suitable outer holder or boring bar, supporting faster tool set-up and more predictable machining results.

Controlled chip formation and reliable edge performance

A single-sided chipbreaker matched to the cutting grade promotes stable chip formation during external and internal turning operations. The 0.8 mm corner radius balances edge strength and surface finish, allowing a compromise between robustness and fine part quality. In practice, this means fewer interruptions from built-up edge or edge chipping when machining corrosion-resistant alloys. The combination of insert geometry and chipbreaker design supports consistent surface quality and dimensional repeatability across production runs.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The DCMT 070208 T6215 insert by Tungaloy is designed primarily for machining stainless steel in stable to lightly interrupted turning operations.

How does the T6215 grade improve tool life?
The CVD-coated carbide T6215 offers enhanced abrasion resistance and edge stability, which extends service life and reduces the frequency of indexings for the insert.

Which holders are compatible with this insert geometry?
Compatibility is determined by the holder’s form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and the insert thickness of 2.38 mm; use matching ISO rhombic 07 holders and the appropriate shim or clamp set.

What chip control can be expected with this insert?
The single-sided chipbreaker combined with the insert geometry promotes consistent chip formation and helps maintain surface quality during turning.

Is this insert suitable for internal boring operations?
Yes, the ISO rhombic form and balanced corner radius make the insert suitable for both external and internal turning when used with appropriate boring bars or holders.
