CPGT 09T302 decoded: shape, clearance, tolerance class, mounting, inscribed circle, thickness and corner radius, with the ANSI equivalent (CPGT 32.50.5).
Page last changed 2026-10-19 · based on ISO 1832:2017
An ISO 1832 designation has 13 possible positions, of which the first seven are mandatory. The first four form the design group and describe the insert's outline; the last three form the dimensions group and describe its size. Reading CPGT 09T302 left to right:
| Pos. | Symbol | Meaning | Value for CPGT 09T302 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | C | Shape | 80° rhombic — 80° nose angle, 2 corners per side |
| 2 | P | Clearance angle | 11° — positive insert (single-sided) |
| 3 | G | Tolerance class | IC ±0.025 mm, edge position ±0.025 mm, thickness ±0.13 mm |
| 4 | T | Mounting and chip breaker | Mounting style 3, chip breaker one face |
| 5 | 09 | Size (cutting edge ≈) | Inscribed circle 9.525 mm (0.3750 in) |
| 6 | T3 | Thickness | 3.97 mm (0.1563 in) |
| 7 | 02 | Corner radius | 0.2 mm (0.0079 in) |
| Dimension | Where it comes from | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Designation | ISO 1832 | CPGT 09T302 |
| ANSI equivalent | ANSI B212.12 | CPGT 32.50.5 |
| Shape | Position 1 — C | 80° rhombic, 80° nose angle |
| Usable corners | Position 1 and 2 combined | 2 (positive) |
| Clearance angle | Position 2 — P | 11° |
| Inscribed circle, d | Position 5 | 9.525 mm / 0.3750 in |
| Thickness, s | Position 6 | 3.97 mm / 0.1563 in |
| Corner radius, r | Position 7 | 0.2 mm / 0.0079 in |
| Tolerance on d | Class G | ±0.025 mm |
| Tolerance on edge position, m | Class G | ±0.025 mm |
| Tolerance on thickness, s | Class G | ±0.13 mm |
These are reference tolerance values associated with the designation. They are not inspection results or a guarantee for a delivered insert. Confirm the applicable catalogue, purchase specification and inspection requirements.
The general-purpose turning shape — a good balance between edge strength and the ability to reach into a shoulder.
Countersunk hole, chip breaker on one face.
Ground inserts — tighter IC and edge position, used where indexing repeatability matters.
References and calculation methods used for this page are listed below. Numbered markers connect table columns where present. A reference listing does not itself establish that every value has been independently checked.

| [2] | Field values computed from the designation | derived | Every field on this page is decoded from the designation letters and digits using the ISO 1832 symbol tables. Nothing is looked up from a catalogue, and the inch values are computed as millimetres ÷ 25.4. |

| ISO 1832 — Indexable inserts for cutting tools, designation | ISO 1832:2017 | all seven designation positions and their symbol tables |
| ANSI B212.12 — Indexable inserts, identification system | ANSI B212.12-1991 (R2017) | the ANSI inch designation and its size, thickness and radius symbols |
No page-specific independent source review is recorded here. The listed references and formulas explain the basis of the compilation; automated consistency checks do not verify the original sources or establish product conformity.
Derived values — the following values on this page are calculated, not taken directly from the standard:
| Value | How it is derived |
|---|---|
| All fields | Decoded from the designation by the ISO 1832 symbol tables in the page generator. |
Only positions 1 to 7 are decoded. Positions 8 to 13 describe edge preparation, wiper geometry, cutting direction and other features, and are manufacturer-specific. The ISO 1832 tables define the envelope; the chip breaker geometry behind position 4 is proprietary and is not described by the standard.
