Tungaloy RCMT0602MO-61 T9115 Insert
Round Positive Turning | 61 Finishing Breaker | Premium T9115 CVD Grade
Which round insert is best for high-speed steel profiling?
The Tungaloy RCMT0602MO-61 T9115 is a high-efficiency round carbide turning insert designed for high-speed machining of carbon and alloy steels. Featuring the advanced T9115 CVD coated grade, this insert excels in heat resistance and wear protection during continuous cutting operations. The 61 chipbreaker is specifically engineered for light finishing, offering excellent chip control and low cutting resistance. Made in Japan, this CNC turning insert is the professional choice for profiling applications where dimensional stability and surface integrity are critical.
Premium T9115 CVD Grade
Optimized for ISO P (Steel) materials. The thick Al2O3 coating provides superior protection against crater wear at high speeds.
Strong Round Geometry
The RCMT round shape provides maximum edge strength for profiling and varying feed directions without chipping.
61 Light-Duty Breaker
A sharp cutting edge designed for shallow finishing cuts, ensuring smooth surface finishes and tight tolerances.

8. FAQ - Common Technical Questions
Q: Is T9115 good for interrupted cuts?
A: T9115 is optimized for continuous cutting at high speeds. For interrupted cutting, we recommend T9125 or Tungaloy's PVD coated grades.
Q: Can I use this for stainless steel?
A: T9115 is an ISO P (Steel) grade. For stainless steel (ISO M), please look for Tungaloy AH630 or AH645 grades.
Q: What is the benefit of the 61 chipbreaker?
A: It is a sharp, low-resistance breaker designed for shallow depths of cut, ensuring excellent surface finish on finishing passes.
Expert Insight: CVD T9115 Advantage
In high-productivity CNC turning, the T9115 grade's multi-layered CVD coating acts as a massive thermal barrier. This prevents heat-induced plastic deformation of the tool tip, allowing the RCMT0602 to maintain its shape and precision even at speeds exceeding 300 m/min in carbon steels.
