Tungaloy 6772496 Cnmg 543 Ths T9215 Turning Insert

Product Description

The TUNGALOY 6772496 is a CNMG 543 THS indexable turning insert in the T9215 grade, designed for general-purpose metal cutting in CNC and manual turning applications. The insert is manufactured from solid carbide and features a multilayer CVD coating consisting of TiCN, Al2O3, and TiN for extended wear resistance and thermal stability. With an 80-degree diamond shape, a negative rake angle of -20 degrees, and a chamfered and honed cutting edge, this insert delivers controlled chip formation and edge security across a range of workpiece materials. It is installed by licensed machinists and tooling technicians on lathes and boring equipment.

This insert is suited for turning, facing, and boring operations on steel, stainless steel, and cast iron workpieces. It falls under material grade classifications P10 and P20, making it appropriate for light to medium roughing and semi-finishing passes. The neutral hand orientation and four available cutting edges make it a practical, cost-efficient choice for high-production turning environments where consistent tool life and predictable performance are priorities.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and all power is isolated before indexing or replacing inserts. Seat the insert firmly in the toolholder pocket and verify the clamp or pin is secured before resuming cutting operations. Do not exceed the recommended depth of cut for the insert size and grade.
