Why should I use T9115 grade for high-speed steel turning?
The T9115 grade is a flagship Tungaloy CVD coating designed for stable and efficient steel turning. It uses a specialized multi-layer alumina coating that provides a high-heat barrier, allowing for increased cutting speeds without edge deformation. This long-tail keywords industry favorite ensures that your CNC machining operations stay productive for longer periods with minimal insert changes. Compared to general grades, T9115 is superior for continuous cutting in precision machining where thermal stability is paramount.
What are the benefits of the PS chipbreaker geometry?
The PS Chipbreaker is specifically ground for finishing and light turning. Its sharp edge and optimized geometry reduce cutting forces, preventing workpiece vibration and ensuring a mirror-like surface finish. When paired with the 0.8mm radius, this indexable turning tool provides the perfect balance of strength and surface quality.
What are the recommended feeds and speeds for T9115?
Optimized for P (Steel) Applications:
-
Cutting Speed (Vc): 180 - 350 m/min (590 - 1150 SFM)
-
Feed Rate (f): 0.08 - 0.25 mm/rev
-
Depth of Cut (ap): 0.5 - 2.0 mm
*Pro Tip: Use higher speeds with the T9115 grade to reduce the risk of built-up edge and improve tool life.*
What do customers say about Tungaloy CCMT060208?
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Extreme durability" - Stefan L., Germany
"T9115 is my go-to for production steel turning. The 0.8mm radius holds up much better on interrupted cuts than the 0.4mm."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Great finish on CNC lathes" - Hiro M., Japan
"Authentic Tungaloy quality. The PS chipbreaker keeps chips short and controlled. Very satisfied with the tool life."
⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Strong and Reliable" - David B., USA
"Consistent performance across all inserts in the box. Pushed the SFM and the coating didn't flake. Great for semi-finishing."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Perfect for Alloy Steel" - Luca V., Italy
"We use these for high-volume automotive parts. The surface Ra is perfect and the price-to-performance ratio is unmatched."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Original parts, fast delivery" - Alan K., UK
"Genuine Japanese product. Fits our SCLCR06 holders perfectly. Excellent service from the supplier."
Frequently Asked Questions (QA)
Q: Can I use this for boring small diameter holes?
A: Yes! This is a standard choice for internal boring bars using size 0602 inserts. The 0.8mm radius provides extra strength in high-vibration boring tasks.
Q: What tool holder fits this insert?
A: It fits any standard **SCLCR06** or **SCLCR1/4** turning tool holder or boring bar.
Q: Why choose CVD over PVD for steel?
A: CVD coatings like T9115 are thicker and offer better thermal insulation, making them more durable for high-speed continuous turning where heat is a major factor.
Machining Tip: CVD vs. Cermet
For light finishing requiring a mirror finish, consider Cermet. However, for production stability, high-speed turning, and semi-finishing in steel, the T9115 CVD grade is the superior choice for consistent results in CNC machining.
