SCMT09T304 VP15TF
Mitsubishi Materials | The Miracle Coated Versatility Specialist
The Mitsubishi SCMT09T304 VP15TF is a premium carbide turning insert engineered for high-reliability CNC machining. Utilizing the legendary VP15TF Miracle PVD coating, this insert is the ultimate all-rounder, excelling in machining stainless steel, carbon steels, and heat-resistant alloys. Its 7° positive relief angle (S-Type) ensures low cutting resistance, making it a perfect match for both external turning and high-precision internal boring operations.

VP15TF Miracle Grade
The VP15TF grade features Mitsubishi’s unique (Al,Ti)N PVD coating. This coating offers exceptional wear resistance and thermal stability. Its micro-grain carbide substrate provides high toughness, preventing edge chipping even during interrupted cuts or when machining gummy materials like 300-series stainless steel.
Finishing Geometry
The indexable turning geometry of the SCMT is optimized for precision machining. The 0.4mm (1/64") radius is ideal for achieving fine surface finishes and maintaining dimensional tolerances. The positive rake angle chipbreaker effectively manages chip control, reducing heat buildup in the cutting zone.
