Mitsubishi WBGT020104L-F VP15TF
Universal PVD Coated Miraculo Grade for High-Precision Profiling
The Mitsubishi WBGT020104L-F VP15TF is a high-performance 80° trigonal positive-type carbide turning insert. Powered by the legendary VP15TF PVD coating, this insert is an industry-leading "all-rounder" for precision machining of stainless steel, mild steel, and superalloys. Commonly known by its ANSI equivalent WBGT 0.60.51L-F, it is specifically designed for small-diameter boring and Swiss-type CNC lathes where edge sharpness and surface integrity are paramount.

VP15TF Grade & F-Breaker Geometry
VP15TF Miraculo PVD Coating: The VP15TF grade is a TiAlN-based PVD coated carbide that offers the perfect balance between hardness and toughness. It is designed to prevent built-up edge (BUE) and welding, which are common issues in stainless steel turning.
F-Breaker Geometry: The F-Breaker is a finishing chipbreaker specifically designed for small depth of cut. It ensures excellent chip control even at high speeds, preventing "bird-nesting" and ensuring a pristine surface finish on critical components.
Recommended Cutting Parameters
| Workpiece Material | Cutting Speed (Vc) | Feed Rate (f) | Depth of Cut (ap) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stainless Steel (M) | 70 - 160 m/min | 0.04 - 0.12 mm/rev | 0.1 - 0.6 mm |
| Alloy Steel (P) | 90 - 200 m/min | 0.05 - 0.15 mm/rev | 0.1 - 0.8 mm |

VP15TF is the "Universal Standard" for reliability. If you require a mirror-finish on steel specifically, consider the NX2525 cermet grade. For non-ferrous metals (Aluminum/Copper), switch to the HTI10 or TF15 tungsten carbide grades to achieve the sharpest cutting edge.
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.
