Tungaloy TPMT16T308-PS T9115 Insert

High-Speed CVD Coated Carbide | -PS Precision Finishing | 0.8mm Radius

What is the best insert for high-speed semi-finishing on steel?

The Tungaloy TPMT16T308-PS T9115 is a premium triangular turning insert optimized for high-productivity steel machining. Featuring the advanced T9115 CVD coating, this insert excels in high-speed finishing and semi-finishing applications by providing unparalleled crater wear resistance. The -PS (Positive Sharp) chipbreaker is specifically engineered to reduce cutting forces and ensure clean chip evacuation. With a robust 0.8mm corner radius, this model provides superior edge strength for stable production. 100% Made in Japan.

T9115 CVD Grade

Designed for high-speed turning of steel (ISO P15-P25). Thick Al2O3 and TiCN layers provide extreme heat resistance and surface hardness.

-PS Sharp Geometry

The 'Positive Sharp' breaker features a high rake angle, minimizing machine vibration and preventing work-hardening of the steel surface.

PremiumTec Treatment

Tungaloy's exclusive surface treatment reduces friction and improves chip flow, resulting in higher surface gloss and consistent performance.

8. FAQ - Support for Professionals

Q: Can I use T9115 for stainless steel?

A: T9115 is a dedicated P-class steel grade. For stainless steel, we recommend Tungaloy’s AH630 or AH645 grades for optimal efficiency.

Q: What is the benefit of the CVD coating?

A: CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) allows for a thicker, more heat-resistant coating compared to PVD, making T9115 ideal for continuous high-speed turning.

Q: Is 0.8mm radius better than 0.4mm for finish?

A: 0.8mm offers higher edge toughness and allows for higher feed rates, but 0.4mm is generally preferred for extremely light finishing passes where low cutting force is needed.

Tech Tip: Matching Grade to Speed

The **T9115 grade** is engineered to thrive in the high-temperature zone of CNC turning. When using the **-PS sharp edge**, maintaining high cutting speed prevents built-up edge and ensures a superior surface finish. **Tungaloy Japan** - Engineering your production advantage.

Technical FAQ & Buying Guide

Are your carbide inserts interchangeable with major brands like Sandvik, Iscar, or Kennametal?

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.

How do I choose the correct insert grade and chipbreaker for machining Stainless Steel (M) vs. Carbon Steel (P)?

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.
What are the recommended cutting speed (Vc) and feed rate (f) parameters to maximize tool life?

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.
Do you offer bulk discounts or wholesale pricing for machine shops and distributors?

Yes, we support machine shops, distributors, and global buyers with tiered wholesale pricing and competitive volume discounts. We also provide OEM custom manufacturing solutions for tool holders and carbide inserts based on your technical drawings. Contact our team to request a quick B2B quotation.
