TaeguTec SOMT130408DP TT9080
Engineered for Heavy-Duty High-Feed Milling: Maximum MRR in Stainless & Alloy Steel
Product Overview
"Which milling insert is best for high-efficiency roughing in large-scale stainless steel and alloy steel components?"
The TaeguTec SOMT130408DP TT9080 is a high-performance milling insert within the legendary ChaseFeed family. The TT9080 grade features a specialized sub-micron substrate with an advanced PVD coating, offering extreme resistance to thermal cracking and notch wear. The DP (General Purpose) chipbreaker geometry is specifically designed with a reinforced land, ensuring edge security under the high axial forces characteristic of high-feed milling. This size 13 insert is the heavy-duty choice for large-scale metal removal, providing significantly more structural stability than smaller series.
Key Features
A versatile multi-layer PVD coating optimized for ISO M (Stainless) and ISO P (Steel), ensuring long tool life in abrasive conditions.
The DP chipbreaker features a flat-top land that resists chipping during interrupted cuts and high-speed entries.
Increased thickness (4.76mm) allows for higher feed rates and larger depths of cut compared to standard series.

— Machining Lead (Japan)Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the SOMT 13 compatible with SOMT 09 cutter bodies?
No, the 13 size is larger and thicker. It requires dedicated **MFH 13** cutter bodies to ensure proper seating and stability.
2. Can I use this grade for dry milling?
Yes, TT9080 is designed for both wet and dry milling. For stainless steel, air cooling is often preferred to prevent thermal shock.
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.
