| Features | First choice for roughing ISO P materials. The chip-breaking land with a raised angle controls chip flow even at low depths of cut. A large rake angle and a wide chamfer ensure a sharp and strong cutting edge. The double groove improves chip evacuation and makes the insert versatile: suitable for roughing and semi-finishing under heavy loads. |
Available INNOT grades
| Grade | ISO | Coating | Composition | Application |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IT8105 | P | CVD | TiN + MT-TiCN + Al₂O₃ | Turning of steel in stable conditions. High hot hardness, resistance to wear and plastic deformation. |
| IT8115 ★ | P | CVD | TiN + MT-TiCN + Al₂O₃ | Continuous and lightly interrupted cuts. Finishing and semi-finishing of carbon and alloy steels. |
| IT8125 | P | CVD | TiN + MT-TiCN + Al₂O₃ | Interrupted and continuous cuts on steel. The reinforced substrate limits plastic deformation at high temperature. |
| IT8225 ★ | P | CVD | TiN + MT-TiCN + Al₂O₃ | First-choice grade for steel, very versatile. Multilayer coating with excellent wear resistance and toughness. |
★ Recommended grade for this chipbreaker. CVD = chemical vapour deposition coating. ISO P = steels.

Internal turning (boring) of steels (ISO P) – GR chipbreaker
Starting values for internal turning with a boring bar, derived from this insert's external turning data: cutting speed −15%, feed −20%, maximum depth of cut −40%. Negative inserts are mounted on boring bars for bores from about Ø 25 mm upwards (Ø 32–40 mm for the larger sizes).

With a boring bar overhang above 3 times the diameter (steel bar) or 5 times (carbide or anti-vibration bar), reduce speed and feed further. Use the bar's internal coolant to clear the chips.
