TaeguTec TDJ 2-15RS TT8020
15° Lead Angle Precision Parting for Burr-Free Stainless Steel Production
Product Overview
"Which 2mm parting insert is best for stainless steel to ensure no leftover 'nub' on the finished part?"
The TaeguTec TDJ 2-15RS TT8020 is engineered for precision bar-fed applications where a clean, nub-free cut-off is mandatory. The 15° Right-Hand Lead Angle ensures that the cutting force is directed to cleanly detach the component, eliminating secondary deburring operations. Combined with the TT8020 PVD grade—a specialist for ISO M (Stainless Steel) and ISO S (Super Alloys)—this insert provides unmatched thermal stability and resistance to work-hardening. The sharp TDJ chipbreaker geometry maintains lower cutting temperatures, making it the industrial standard for medical, aerospace, and high-end hydraulic fittings.
Core Advantages
The 15-degree lead angle ensures a clean break-off on the component side, reducing secondary manual finishing time.
Specifically formulated for high-temperature resistance in gummy materials like 316 Stainless and Inconel.
Minimizes work-hardening and vibration, crucial for maintaining tight tolerances in precision aerospace parts.

"Reduced my cycle time by 15 seconds per part because I don't have to face the nub off anymore."
— Mark J., USA"Exzellent für 1.4404 Edelstahl. Die Oberfläche ist perfekt."
— Klaus W., Germany"Ottima resistenza al calore su Inconel. Molto stabile."
— Roberto L., Italy"Sharp edge provides great accuracy on thin-walled medical tubes."
— Kenji H., Japan"Best stainless parting insert in our shop. TT8020 is the key."
— David S., UKFrequently Asked Questions
A: Lead angles can induce slight lateral deflection. For deep parting, ensure your tool is perfectly center-height and use appropriate feed rates.
A: RS stands for Right-Hand Sharp; LS stands for Left-Hand Sharp. Right-hand is most common for standard CNC lathe setups.
A: No. Lead angle inserts are strictly for parting off. For grooving, use the neutral TDJ 2 models.
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.
