TCMT 110308 T6215 ISO triangular turning insert, CVD-coated for stainless steel — Tungaloy

A TCMT 110308 T6215 ISO-standard triangular insert engineered for external and internal turning of stainless steel, optimised for stable to lightly interrupted cutting conditions.

• CVD-coated carbide grade T6215
• Designed for machining stainless steel
• ISO TCMT 110308 triangular insert, 11 mm
• 7° clearance angle with cylindrical hole and countersink

Reliable wear resistance for prolonged tool life

The CVD-coated carbide substrate (grade T6215) delivers high wear resistance under continuous cutting, which translates into longer tool life and fewer indexings. The coating reduces abrasive wear and heat-related damage during sustained cuts; this is particularly beneficial when consistent component quality and fewer machine stops are required. Reliability in the cutting edge supports more predictable process planning and less frequent tool replacement.

Consistent surface quality when machining stainless steels

Stainless steels tend to work-harden and demand a stable cutting geometry to avoid built-up edge and rough finishes. The insert’s positive geometry and the 0.8 mm nose radius are designed to balance cutting forces and surface integrity. As a result, improved surface finish and dimensional consistency are achieved with reduced tendency for material adhesion on the cutting edge, which benefits subsequent operations and inspection criteria.

Secure fit and ISO compatibility for fast tool changes

Compatibility with tool holders is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness; the ISO designation ensures interchangeability in standard tool systems. The insert is supplied within a common ISO system that permits rapid replacement in compatible external holders or boring bars, while the cylindrical hole with a one-sided countersink provides reliable clamping and repeatable seating to reduce setup time and variability.

Controlled chip formation for safer, predictable machining

The insert features a single-sided chipbreaker engineered for stainless-steel cutting conditions, encouraging short, controllable chip shapes under recommended cutting parameters. Controlled chips lower the risk of entanglement and facilitate automated chip evacuation, contributing to safer shop-floor conditions and reduced manual intervention. This controlled behaviour supports higher spindle utilisation and steadier cycle times.

Geometry and dimensions optimised for versatile turning tasks

With an 11 mm size, 3.18 mm thickness and the specified clearance and included angles, the triangular form offers three usable cutting edges per index, improving cost-efficiency per insert. The geometry is suitable for both external profiling and internal operations when paired with the appropriate holder. The mechanical design ensures stable seating and effective force transmission for light to moderate interrupted cuts.

Guidance on selection and process setup

Select the chipbreaker and grade to match workpiece material, machining strategy and machine stability; for stainless steels, favour parameter sets that limit heat concentration and avoid excessive feed spikes. The cutting system comprises the insert, a corresponding external holder or boring bar, an underlay/clamping set and replacement screws, all of which should be checked for correct tolerance and seating before production runs. For complex or demanding parts, consider a trial cut under monitored conditions to validate cutting data and expected tool life.

FAQ

What materials is this insert recommended for?
The insert is tailored for machining stainless steel; the T6215 CVD-coated carbide grade is optimised for wear resistance in such applications.

How does the ISO designation affect replacement in tool systems?
ISO designation TCMT 110308 ensures dimensional compatibility with ISO-standard holders, enabling fast replacement and predictable seating in established tool systems.

What clamping features does the insert offer for stability?
The insert has a cylindrical hole with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) to allow secure clamping and repeatable positioning in the tool holder.

Is this insert suitable for interrupted cuts?
Yes — the grade and chipbreaker are designed for stable to lightly interrupted conditions; for heavy interruptions, holder rigidity and cutting data should be assessed.

How many cutting edges are available per insert?
The triangular shape provides three indexed cutting edges per insert, improving utilisation and cost-efficiency.
