Tungaloy TNMG160408-SM T6130 Turning Insert

High-Speed CVD Grade | SM Medium-Finishing Geometry | Made in Japan

Which carbide grade is best for continuous stainless steel turning?

The Tungaloy TNMG160408-SM T6130 is a premium, double-sided triangular carbide insert engineered for high-efficiency machining of stainless steel (ISO M-group). Featuring the advanced T6130 CVD coating, this insert is built to withstand high cutting temperatures while preventing built-up edge (BUE). The -SM chipbreaker provides a sharp cutting action and stable chip control during light-to-medium finishing operations. 100% Made in Japan, it is the industrial solution for CNC professionals requiring long tool life and high-speed stability in austenitic and duplex stainless steels.

T6130 CVD Coating

Designed for thermal stability. The high-aluminum content layer resists oxidation and wear even at high cutting velocities, outperforming standard PVD grades in continuous cuts.

SM Chipbreaker Geometry

The specialized "Stainless Medium" geometry balances edge sharpness with structural integrity, ensuring consistent chip breaking and preventing surface work hardening.

6-Edge Efficiency

The double-sided triangular (TNMG) design offers 6 usable cutting corners, significantly reducing your cost-per-edge without compromising industrial performance.

3. Technical Data: Metric (ISO) vs. Imperial (ANSI)

Feature Metric (ISO) Imperial (ANSI)
Standard Model TNMG160408-SM TNMG 332-SM
Inscribed Circle (IC) 9.525 mm 3/8"
Thickness (S) 4.76 mm 3/16"
Corner Radius (RE) 0.8 mm 1/32"

Industrial Cutting Recommendations

  • Cutting Speed (Vc): 120 - 280 m/min (Optimum: 180 m/min)
  • Feed Rate (f): 0.12 - 0.40 mm/rev
  • Depth of Cut (ap): 0.8 - 4.0 mm

*Pro-Tip: Use T6130 grade when high surface finish and thermal stability are required during long production cycles in stainless steel.*

4. Primary Applications

  • Continuous turning of Austenitic Stainless (304, 316).
  • Machining of Duplex and Super Duplex alloys.
  • Medical and Aerospace components requiring high precision.
  • Automotive stainless exhaust manifolds and flanges.

5. Tool Compatibility

Standard ISO/ANSI TNMG 1604 interface. Pairs perfectly with MTJNR/L, WTJNR/L, or DTGNR/L tool holder series. Optimized for Haas, Mazak, Doosan, and Okuma CNC systems.

Professional Shop Feedback

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Stainless Mastery" - Robert H., USA
"T6130 is the most consistent CVD grade I've used for 316 stainless. Tool life is very predictable, even at high speeds."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Fast Delivery" - Hans W., Germany
"Original Tungaloy Japan inserts arrived in 4 days. The SM chipbreaker handles the stringy chips of 304 beautifully."

⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Great for Finish" - Kenji T., Japan
"Consistent wear pattern. No notch wear on the depth-of-cut line, which is usually a problem with duplex."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Authentic Products" - Luca R., Italy
"Perfect surface finish. Beyond is our reliable partner for Tungaloy tools. Highly recommended for CNC shops."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Solid ROI" - Sarah L., UK
"6 usable edges per insert makes this very cost-effective for our large production runs in stainless."

8. FAQ - Machining Support

Q: Is T6130 better than AH725 for stainless?

A: CVD grades like T6130 are better for high-speed, continuous cutting due to higher heat resistance. PVD grades like AH725 are better for low-speed or interrupted cuts where edge sharpness is critical.

Q: What is the benefit of the -SM chipbreaker?

A: It is a medium-finishing geometry. It reduces cutting force and heat, preventing work hardening—a common problem when machining stainless steel.

Q: Does this fit my existing TNMG tool holder?

A: Yes, it is a standard ISO 1604 series insert. It will fit any standard MTJNR or WTJNR tool holder of the same size.

Tech Tip: Optimizing CVD Grade Performance

The **T6130 CVD grade** thrives at higher speeds. If you see built-up edge, increase your cutting speed (Vc). Ensure high-pressure coolant is directed at the cutting edge for maximum tool life. **Tungaloy Japan** - Engineering Precision.

Technical FAQ & Buying Guide

How do I choose the correct specification?

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.

How can I check compatibility with my existing setup?

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.

What quantity and price unit am I 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.

How should I choose cutting parameters?

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.

Are bulk discounts available?

Our automatic quantity discount is 6% off for 2–9 items and 12% off for 10 or more items, based on the total product quantity in the cart. Other offers may not combine with this discount; check the applicable offer conditions.
