TaeguTec CCMT060204PC TT9225
Master of Versatility: High-Performance CVD Coating for Steel & Stainless
Product Overview
"Which insert grade offers the best versatility for high-speed steel turning while still providing excellent tool life in stainless steel applications?"
The TaeguTec CCMT060204PC TT9225 is a premium 80° rhombic turning insert engineered for ISO P (Steel) and ISO M (Stainless Steel). Featuring the innovative TT9225 CVD coating technology, this grade provides exceptional wear resistance and thermal stability at high cutting speeds. The PC (Precision Cutting) chipbreaker is specifically designed with a sharp rake angle and positive geometry to minimize cutting forces and vibration, making it the ideal choice for finishing operations and small-diameter boring where precision and surface Ra are critical.
Key Features
A thick, multi-layer coating provides superior heat insulation and wear resistance for high-speed productivity.
Sharp geometry and positive rake reduce radial forces, preventing vibration in delicate or long-reach setups.
The TT9225 grade features a specialized substrate that balances crater wear resistance with edge stability.

Verified Global Feedback
"Versatile and Efficient"
We use TT9225 for both alloy steel and 304 stainless. It cuts beautifully and tool life is very consistent.
— Machining Pros (USA)"Exzellente Finish-Qualität"
The PC chipbreaker is perfect for internal boring. No vibration and the surface finish is impeccable.
— Feinmechanik GmbH (Germany)"Top Tier Grade"
Excellent performance at high speeds. Reduced our cycle time on steel shafts significantly.
— Precision Works (Japan)Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is TT9225 better than TT9080 for Stainless Steel?
TT9225 is better for high-speed continuous turning in stainless steel due to its thick CVD coating, whereas TT9080 (PVD) is superior for interrupted cuts or very sharp finishing.
2. Can I use this grade with flood coolant?
Yes, flood coolant is highly recommended for TT9225 to maximize tool life and maintain thermal stability at high cutting speeds.
Technical FAQ & Buying Guide
Absolutely. Our CNC carbide inserts (including CNMG, WNMG, DNMG, and APMT series) are manufactured strictly adhering to international ISO/ANSI specifications. A CNMG 120408 from OYYU BEYOND will flawlessly fit any standard turning tool holder or indexable tool from major global brands like Sandvik Coromant, Kennametal, Iscar, Walter, or SECO, providing a highly cost-effective premium alternative without sacrificing tolerance or tool life.
We offer optimized CVD and PVD multi-layer coatings for different ISO material groups:
- For Carbon/Alloy Steel (ISO P): Choose our thick multi-layer CVD coated grades (e.g., Al2O3 + TiN). They provide exceptional crater wear resistance and thermal barriers during high-speed dry or wet roughing.
- For Stainless Steel (ISO M): Choose our nano-structured PVD coated grades with sharp, positive chipbreakers (like -TM or -MA). This combination prevents work hardening and effectively controls sticky chips.
The optimal cutting parameters vary depending on the workpiece hardness and operation type:
- For General Steel Turnings: Recommended cutting speed ($V_c$) ranges from 150 to 280 m/min, with a feed rate ($f$) of 0.15 to 0.45 mm/rev.
- For Stainless Steel Finishing: Recommended cutting speed ($V_c$) is 120 to 200 m/min, with a feed rate ($f$) of 0.10 to 0.25 mm/rev.Always adjust parameters based on early wear patterns: increase $V_c$ if built-up edge occurs, or reduce $V_c$ if severe flank wear is observed.
