VCMT110304-TM T9215 — VCMT 110304 T9215 ISO turning insert, CVD-coated carbide by Tungaloy

The VCMT110304-TM T9215 is an ISO‑standard rhombic turning insert designed for external and internal turning of medium steels, optimised for continuous to lightly interrupted cuts.

• CVD-coated carbide T9215 for medium steel
• TM chipbreaker for stable chip control
• Rhombic 35° geometry for versatile turning
• 11 mm plate size with 0.4 mm corner radius

Longer tool life through a robust CVD coating

The combination of CVD‑coated surface treatment and a wear‑resistant carbide substrate provides extended component life and fewer tool changes. The T9215 grade balances hardness and fracture toughness, making it particularly suited to medium‑grade steels where a mix of abrasion resistance and edge stability is required. Reduced wear translates into longer uninterrupted production and lower per‑part tooling cost.

Consistent chip control and improved surface quality

The TM chipbreaker geometry secures reliable chip formation across typical turning conditions, which reduces the risk of entanglement and minimises rework. Stable chips aid coolant flow and help maintain an even cutting edge temperature, contributing to a more consistent surface finish. For operations emphasising repeatability and part quality, the predictable chip behaviour directly supports process stability.

Fast integration with ISO holders and simple setup

As an ISO‑standard insert, compatibility with turning holders is determined by form, relief angle and size; the rhombic shape and 35° approach angle make the insert adaptable for a wide range of external and internal operations. The insert features a 7° relief angle and a central mounting hole with a cylindrical bore plus a one‑sided countersink (40°–60°), allowing secure clamping and straightforward positioning. This standardisation reduces setup time and simplifies inventory management.

Application guidance and selection tips

For medium steels and mixed production runs, the grade and TM chipbreaker combination offers a practical compromise between productivity and tool life. The 0.4 mm corner radius supports light finishing passes with tight tolerance control, while the 3.18 mm plate thickness delivers sufficient rigidity for general turning tasks. Select the matching holder and clamping set that correspond to the insert's form and tolerance class to ensure repeatable results.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert best suited for?
The VCMT110304-TM T9215 insert is optimised for medium steels, where the T9215 grade provides a balance of wear resistance and toughness for continuous to lightly interrupted turning.

Can the insert be used for finishing passes?
Yes, the 0.4 mm corner radius and stable edge geometry make the insert suitable for light finishing, delivering improved surface quality when used with appropriate feeds and speeds.

How does the TM chipbreaker affect performance?
The TM chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation, reducing chip entanglement and improving process reliability, which supports consistent surface finish and safer material removal.

What should be considered when matching holders?
Compatibility depends on insert form, relief angle and tolerance class; select an ISO‑compatible holder that matches the rhombic VCMT form, 7° relief and the specified plate thickness to ensure secure clamping.
