DCMT 11T308 T6215 – Indexable turning insert for Turning, Tungaloy

A DCMT 11T308 T6215 indexable turning insert designed for ISO-compliant external and internal turning, optimised for stable to lightly interrupted cuts.

• CVD-coated cemented carbide grade T6215
• Optimised for rostfreier Stahl machining
• Rhombic 11 mm plate with 0.8 mm radius
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

Consistent tool life through advanced coating and grade selection

The combination of a CVD-coated surface and a cemented carbide substrate in grade T6215 delivers extended wear resistance and predictable flank performance, which reduces the need for frequent index changes. This results in fewer tool changes per shift and a more stable production flow when machining rostfreier Stahl. The coating improves resistance to abrasive and adhesive wear, supporting longer cutting intervals under stable setups and light interruptions. As a result, process reliability and throughput benefit directly from the material and coating choice.

Secure clamping and straightforward indexability for efficient changeover

The insert features a rhombic geometry and a cylindrical hole with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°), designed for reliable seating in standard ISO-compatible holders. With a plate thickness of 3.97 mm and a 7° relief angle, the component offers consistent seating and repeatable positioning. This geometry minimises micro-movement during cutting and simplifies indexable replacement, reducing machine downtime and enabling predictable part tolerances over repeated tool indices.

Improved chip control tailored to rostfreier Stahl turning

A single-sided chipbreaker geometry provides controlled chip formation on the leading edge and supports stable swarf evacuation when turning rostfreier Stahl. The combination of chipplate design and the 0.8 mm corner radius balances edge strength with surface finish, helping to avoid built-up edge and promoting smoother feeds. Where surface integrity is important, this profile helps achieve consistent finishes while maintaining secure edge life under moderate cutting parameters.

Application guidance and holder compatibility for reliable results

This insert is supplied in the ISO turning indexable insert family and is intended for external and internal turning tasks under stable to lightly interrupted conditions. Compatibility with a chosen holder depends on seat form, relief angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness; ensure the selected holder matches the ISO form and the 11T308 designation. For mixed-material shops, the grade is primarily aimed at rostfreier Stahl operations; alternative grades should be considered for cast iron or high-speed aluminium work.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The DCMT 11T308 T6215 insert is optimised for machining rostfreier Stahl, using its CVD-coated cemented carbide composition to resist wear during turning operations.

How does the T6215 grade affect tool life?
The T6215 CVD coating improves abrasive and adhesive wear resistance, so the insert maintains edge integrity longer and delivers more consistent tool life in rostfreier Stahl turning.

Which holders are compatible with this insert?
Compatibility relies on ISO seat form, relief angle and plate size; select an ISO-compatible external holder that matches the 11 mm rhombic plate and the specified 7° relief.

What cutting geometry helps achieve good surface finish?
A 0.8 mm corner radius combined with the single-sided chipbreaker yields a balance between edge strength and surface quality, supporting smoother feeds and reduced built-up edge.

How to identify the correct article for ordering?
Use the SKU 6945246-Tungaloy or the manufacturer article number 6945246 when ordering the DCMT 11T308 T6215 indexable turning insert.
