DCMT11T308 VP15TF
Miracle PVD Technology | High-Strength Universal Grade | 0.8mm Radius
Engineered for Tough Multi-Material Cutting
VP15TF Grade (The Miracle PVD): The VP15TF is Mitsubishi’s premier PVD-coated micro-grain carbide. The "Miracle Coating" (Al-Ti-N) offers superior oxidation resistance and high-temperature hardness. Because PVD is thinner and more uniform than CVD, the cutting edge remains exceptionally sharp, significantly reducing "Built-Up Edge" (BUE) in gummy materials like 300-series Stainless Steel.
DCMT Geometry (Positive Chipbreaker): The 55-degree diamond shape with a 7-degree relief angle is the industry standard for profiling and medium turning. Its positive rake design shears the material cleanly, reducing radial forces and power consumption.
0.8mm Radius (The Rugged Edge): The "08" (1/32") nose radius provides maximum edge strength. It is the preferred choice for semi-roughing as it can withstand higher feed rates and resists chipping on parts with surface scale or minor interruptions.
Metric vs. Imperial Comparison
| System | Model Designation | I.C. (Inscribed Circle) | Thickness | Radius (RE) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Metric | DCMT11T308 | 9.525 mm | 3.97 mm | 0.80 mm |
| Imperial | DCMT32.52 | 3/8" | 5/32" | 0.0315" (1/32") |
Recommended Machining Parameters
*VP15TF thrives in medium speeds. Use 0.8mm radius for higher feed applications.
| Workpiece Material | Speed (Vc) | Feed (fn) | Depth (Ap) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stainless Steel (304/316) | 80 - 160 m/min | 0.12 - 0.35 mm/r | 0.50 - 2.50 mm |
| Alloy Steel (4140) | 120 - 240 m/min | 0.15 - 0.40 mm/r | 0.50 - 3.00 mm |
Compatible Tool Holders
Achieve maximum rigidity with 11-series SDJCR/L or SDUCR/L holders:

VP15TF (PVD All-Rounder): Best for small batches, stainless steel, and when you need a sharp edge to prevent work hardening.
UE6020 (CVD Steel Specialist): If you are running only Carbon Steel in high volumes, the UE6020 will offer longer tool life at higher speeds than the VP15TF.

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.
