The CNMG 120412MT TT5080 belongs to the category of indexable carbide turning inserts, manufactured primarily by TaeguTec. It falls under the specific sub-category of medium-roughing turning tools optimized for cutting tough alloys
Insert Category (ISO Shape): C-type negative 80° rhombic (diamond) insert. This geometry provides maximum cutting edge strength for heavy-duty metal removal.
Chipbreaker Category (MT): Medium Turning (MT) geometry. It features a reinforced cutting edge designed for stable chip control during intermediate roughing and continuous-to-interrupted cuts.
Grade Category (TT5080): PVD-coated carbide grade. This category is highly specialized for machining Stainless Steel (ISO M) and Super Alloys / Titanium (ISO S). The TiAlN+TiN coating offers high thermal stability and shock resistance.
Dimensional Categories: It features an inscribed circle (IC) size of 12.7 mm, a thickness of 4.76 mm, and a thick 1.2 mm corner radius for enhanced structural strength at the tool tip.
Key Performance Specs
Depth of Cut (APMX): Up to 5.0 mm max.
Turning Feed Rate: Between 0.20 to 0.55 mm/rev
