DCMT 11T308 GT9530 Turning insert, coated cermet, 0.8 mm corner radius (Tungaloy)

A DCMT11T308 GT9530 turning insert engineered for finishing and light universal turning of steel where a fine surface finish and prolonged tool life are priorities

• Coated cermet grade GT9530 for wear resistance
• ISO rhombic DCMT geometry for precise seating
• 0.8 mm corner radius for fine surface finish
• Cylindrical hole with one-sided countersink

Consistent surface quality and extended tool life

The GT9530 coated cermet grade is designed for wear-resistant finishing to light universal turning of steel, providing a balance between surface integrity and tool longevity. Cermet compositions combine ceramic hardness with metal toughness, which reduces flank wear and helps achieve an excellent surface finish at the end of the cycle. Under stable machining conditions this results in fewer insert changes and reduced part rework, improving productivity and lowering overall machining costs.

Secure clamping and ISO compatibility for reliable machining

Constructed to the ISO specification for rhombic turning inserts, the geometry ensures repeatable positioning and reliable clamping in standard holders. The cylindrical hole with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) simplifies seating and torque transmission while the defined tolerance classes support consistent repeatability. Compatibility with a chosen holder depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size and plate thickness, so correct matching guarantees secure mounting and predictable cutting performance.

Application-tailored chip control and process stability

This insert features a single-sided chipbreaker suitable for finishing and light general-purpose operations; selecting the correct chipbreaker and grade according to material, cutting mode and machine rigidity optimises chip evacuation and surface integrity. The modest 0.8 mm corner radius supports fine edge engagement for delicate finishing passes, while the 7° clearance reduces rubbing and thermal build-up. For less rigid setups or heavy interrupted cuts, consider alternative grades or toolholding strategies to maintain stability.

Simple selection and integration into existing tooling systems

As an ISO-format turning insert from the ISO-Drehwendeschneidplatten series, the component integrates easily into existing tool systems provided the holder matches the DCMT profile and the specified dimensions. The 3.97 mm plate thickness and 11 mm size are standard data points for replacement planning and inventory control. When planning setups, factor in the insert grade and chipbreaker versus the workpiece material to achieve the intended balance of surface quality and tool life.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The DCMT11T308 GT9530 is optimised for machining steel, offering wear resistance and a quality finish in finishing to light universal turning applications.

Is the GT9530 grade suitable for finishing operations?
Yes, the GT9530 coated cermet grade is engineered for wear-resistant finishing and light universal cuts where surface quality and longer tool life are required.

How does the insert attach to the holder?
Attachment follows ISO rhombic DCMT conventions; the combination of form, clearance angle, tolerance class, hole and plate thickness determines secure seating and compatibility with the chosen holder.

What is the purpose of the one-sided chipbreaker?
The single-sided chipbreaker aids controlled chip formation and evacuation during finishing passes, improving surface integrity and reducing the risk of chip entanglement for stable turning conditions.

Can this insert be used for heavy interrupted cuts?
This insert is aimed at finishing to light general-purpose turning under stable conditions; for heavy interrupted cuts, a more robust grade or specific chipbreaker and reinforced toolholding are recommended to maintain stability.
