Turning grades machine stainless steel

Taegutec has launched its next-generation TT9200 series of TT-Inox inserts for machining stainless steel.

The company offers three grades to cater for a wide range of speed and feeds for the external and face turning of stainless steel: TT9215, TT9225 and TT9235.

The grades have been designed to cover the full spectrum of speeds and feed for stainless-steel turning while delivering high fracture and wear resistance.

The TT9215 operates at high cutting speeds and is suitable for continuous cutting of stainless steel.

On martensitic and ferritic, austenitic and duplex stainless steel, the TT9215 is capable of machining at cutting speeds of 170-250m/min, 140-220m/min and 130-190m/min respectively.

The TT9225 has been developed for general turning applications on stainless steel.

With its combination of wear and fracture resistance, the grade is more robust than the TT9125.

The TT9225 operates at cutting speeds of 130-220m/min, 110-200m/min and 90-150m/min on martensitic and ferritic, austenitic and duplex steel respectively.

For difficult-to-machine applications and interrupted cutting of stainless steel at low cutting speeds, the TT9235 offers toughness and fracture resistance that guarantees exceptional tool life in the most difficult of applications, said Taegutec.

Suited to cutting in a lower speed range than the TT9215 and TT9225, the TT9235 delivers cutting speeds of 110-170m/min, 90-150m/min and 80-130m/min.

The three grades are available in a diverse range of inserts for all stainless-steel turning needs.
