DCMT070202-MV VP15TF
General Purpose Excellence | Miracle PVD Coating | Ultra-Precision 0.2mm Radius
High-Performance Versatility for CNC Lathes
VP15TF Grade (Miracle Coating): The VP15TF is Mitsubishi’s legendary PVD-coated carbide. Utilizing the "Miracle" coating technology, it offers an exceptional balance of wear resistance and toughness. This grade excels in Steel, Stainless Steel, and Cast Iron, making it the perfect choice for shops that need a single, reliable insert for diverse materials.
MV Chipbreaker (Medium-V Finishing): The MV geometry is designed for optimal chip control across a wide range of applications. Even at the light depths of cut required for micro-finishing, the MV breaker ensures chips are curled and broken, preventing surface entanglement and ensuring a high-quality finish.
0.2mm Radius (Anti-Chatter): The "02" (1/128") nose radius provides a very sharp cutting action. This minimizes radial cutting forces, making it the essential tool for machining slender parts, small internal bores, or components with very tight corner radius requirements.
Metric vs. Imperial Comparison
| System | Model Designation | I.C. (Inscribed Circle) | Thickness | Radius (RE) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Metric | DCMT070202-MV | 6.35 mm | 2.38 mm | 0.20 mm |
| Imperial | DCMT21.50.5-MV | 1/4" | 3/32" | 0.0078" (1/128") |
Recommended Cutting Parameters
*VP15TF is versatile; however, for the 0.2mm radius, keep feed rates low to maintain surface integrity.
| Material | Speed (Vc) | Feed (fn) | Depth (Ap) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Carbon/Alloy Steel | 120 - 220 m/min | 0.03 - 0.12 mm/r | 0.10 - 1.00 mm |
| Stainless Steel (304/316) | 80 - 180 m/min | 0.03 - 0.10 mm/r | 0.10 - 0.80 mm |

Shop 07 Series HoldersPro-Tip: VP15TF vs. NX2525
VP15TF (PVD Carbide): The "All-Rounder." Use this for tough stainless steels and unstable setups. It is much more durable than cermet for interrupted cuts.
NX2525 (Cermet): Switch to NX2525 only when machining clean steel and requiring a mirror finish. VP15TF is significantly more secure for stainless steel and heat-resistant alloys.

Technical FAQ & Buying Guide
When choosing CNC cutting tools, check the full model code, dimensions, grade and selected variant before ordering. Do not rely on the product image alone.
For carbide inserts, tool holders, drills and end mills, compare the mounting dimensions, connection type and manufacturer's specifications with your holder or machine. If you are unsure, share your existing part number and machining application with us before ordering.
Check the product listing for the selling unit, pack quantity and included components. If it is unclear whether the price is per piece or per pack, or whether a tool body and inserts are sold separately, contact us before purchasing.
Select cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut using the relevant manufacturer's recommendations for your tool model, workpiece material, machine conditions and coolant method. The same settings are not suitable for every product or application.
