TCMW16T308 HTI10
Mitsubishi Materials | The Standard for Aluminum & Non-Ferrous Turning
The Mitsubishi TCMW16T308 HTI10 is an uncoated carbide insert specifically engineered for high-precision machining of non-ferrous materials. Utilizing the legendary HTI10 micro-grain grade, this insert provides a superior balance of hardness and toughness. As a critical long-tail precision tool, its 0.8mm nose radius provides reinforced edge strength, making it the industry benchmark for stable, high-speed aluminum turning and copper machining.

HTI10 Grade Technology
The HTI10 grade is an uncoated carbide consisting of a high-hardness micro-grain substrate. Without a coating, the edge remains razor-sharp, which is vital for preventing built-up edge (BUE) in "sticky" materials. This makes it ideal for non-ferrous turning and finishing cast iron.
TCMW Flat-Top Geometry
The "W" designation refers to a flat-top insert (no chipbreaker). This geometry is optimized for precision machining of materials that produce fragmented chips or in applications where the tool must provide maximum stable turning stability and clean shearing action.

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.
