TaeguTec TDXU 5E-0.4 TT9080
High-Performance 5.0mm Multi-Directional Insert for Versatile CNC Operations
Product Overview
"Which 5mm insert is most reliable for switching between carbon steel and stainless steel without changing tools?"
The TaeguTec TDXU 5E-0.4 TT9080 is the ultimate versatile solution for modern machine shops. Featuring the XU geometry, this 5.0mm width insert is engineered for Multi-Directional Turning, allowing you to move from radial plunging to axial side-turning seamlessly. The TT9080 grade is TaeguTec's flagship PVD-coated sub-micron substrate, offering an incredible balance of toughness and wear resistance. Whether you are grooving, profiling, or turning, the TDXU 5E-0.4 ensures stable chip control and exceptional surface finishes across Steel (ISO P) and Stainless Steel (ISO M).
Key Performance Features
A PVD-coated sub-micron substrate that excels in medium-to-low speed applications and interrupted cuts.
Unique design that forces chips to break effectively during both plunging and longitudinal turning movements.
Utilizes the ultra-stable T-Clamp seating system to minimize vibration and increase dimensional accuracy.

Technical FAQ & Buying Guide
When choosing CNC cutting tools, check the full model code, dimensions, grade and selected variant before ordering. Do not rely on the product image alone.
For carbide inserts, tool holders, drills and end mills, compare the mounting dimensions, connection type and manufacturer's specifications with your holder or machine. If you are unsure, share your existing part number and machining application with us before ordering.
Check the product listing for the selling unit, pack quantity and included components. If it is unclear whether the price is per piece or per pack, or whether a tool body and inserts are sold separately, contact us before purchasing.
Select cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut using the relevant manufacturer's recommendations for your tool model, workpiece material, machine conditions and coolant method. The same settings are not suitable for every product or application.
