• Optimised for stainless steels machining
• Rhombic 07 form with 0.4 mm corner radius
• One-sided chipbreaker, ISO-standard compatibility

Performance that keeps production moving

The CVD-coated carbide grade T6215 provides a combination of wear resistance and toughness that suits turning of stainless steels under stable to lightly interrupted cutting conditions. The coating is designed to reduce flank and crater wear, which extends tool life and minimises unscheduled tool changes. As a result, machining cycles remain predictable and throughput is improved, while the balanced substrate helps to maintain a consistent cutting edge geometry across runs.

Simple compatibility with ISO tool systems

Compatibility with holding systems is governed by the insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment method, overall size and thickness. The insert is ISO-standard and integrates with matching external holders or boring bars when these parameters align. The system typically comprises the ISO insert, an appropriate holder, a shim or clamp set and replacement screws, ensuring that the component can be fitted into existing setups without special adapters and that clamping forces remain consistent for stable cutting.

Practical handling and machining advice

The one-sided chipbreaker on this rhombic geometry supports controlled chip formation when paired with the correct feed and depth of cut, reducing built-up edge on stainless steels. The corner radius of 0.4 mm is a compromise between edge strength and surface finish: it improves edge durability while still allowing a fine surface if cutting data is kept conservative. The specified clearance angle of 11° helps to avoid rubbing on the flank face, particularly important when machining tough or gummy alloys.

Where this insert delivers most value

Designed for general turning tasks, the insert excels in external and internal operations where reliable chip control and tool life are priorities. Its rhombic 07 shape and centred hole with a cylindrical bore and single-side countersink (40°–60°) facilitate secure seating and repeatable indexability. For routine production, choose the DPMT070204 in combination with a rigid holder and stable workpiece set-up to exploit the grade’s wear resistance and the chipbreaker’s efficiency.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited to machine?
The insert is intended primarily for stainless steels; the T6215 CVD-coated carbide provides wear resistance and stability for these alloys under steady to lightly interrupted cutting.

How does the 0.4 mm corner radius affect results?
A 0.4 mm corner radius increases edge strength compared with minimal radii and supports better tool life while still permitting a good surface finish when cutting parameters are adapted to the workpiece.

Is the insert compatible with common ISO holders?
Yes, the insert follows ISO form and will fit holders that match its form, size, tolerance and attachment method; secure seating is achieved using the cylindrical hole with single-side countersink.

Which chipbreaker should be selected for heavy feeds?
The one-sided chipbreaker on this insert is optimised for controlled chips in many turning scenarios; for heavy feeds or severe interruptions, a chipbreaker and grade selected for higher stability are recommended.

Can this insert be used for internal turning?
The geometry and hole location support both external and internal turning applications when paired with appropriate holders and rigid machining set-up.
