TaeguTec SCMT09T308-PC TT9080
Precision Engineering for Exotic Alloys: The Ultimate PVD Solution
Product Overview
"Which CNC insert provides the best combination of edge toughness and high-gloss finish when turning HRSA materials like Inconel 718 or Titanium?"
The TaeguTec SCMT09T308-PC TT9080 is a specialized high-performance insert designed for the rigorous demands of ISO S (Super Alloys) and ISO M (Stainless Steel). The TT9080 grade features a specialized fine-grained substrate and a dense PVD coating that creates an impenetrable thermal barrier. The PC (Precision) chipbreaker is engineered with a sharp, positive rake angle to minimize work hardening and reduce cutting heat. With a 0.8mm radius, this insert offers enhanced corner strength and superior surface integrity, making it the preferred choice for mission-critical aerospace and energy sector components.
Key Features
Superior oxidation resistance and coating adhesion, specifically formulated for the abrasive nature of Inconel and Titanium.
Sharp cutting edge reduces radial forces, essential for thin-walled parts and high-accuracy finishing.
Balances edge sharpness with enough strength to handle slight interruptions and higher feed rates in finishing.

Verified Global Feedback
"Excellence in Inconel"
We use these for finishing turbine parts. The tool life in Inconel 718 is significantly better than competitors. Very stable edge.
— Aero-Tech Solutions (USA)"Präzise Oberflächen"
The PC chipbreaker is amazing for fine finishing in 316L. Excellent surface Ra and very predictable wear patterns.
— Precision Zerspanung (Germany)"Qualità Top su Titanio"
Perfect for medical implants. The sharp geometry allows for very clean cuts without work hardening. Highly recommended.
— Meccanica Medica (Italy)"Reliable Sharpness"
Consistently maintains tolerances over large batches of stainless steel valve parts. A very reliable finishing insert.
— Sato Engineering (Japan)Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is TT9080 better than TT5080 for super alloys?
Yes. TT9080 is the premier grade for finishing in Titanium and Super Alloys due to its superior heat resistance and edge stability.
2. Can I use this for medium turning?
The PC chipbreaker is specialized for finishing. For heavier medium turning, we recommend the MT chipbreaker for better chip management at higher depths of cut.
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.
