XPMT 150512 AH6030 indexable insert for general drilling, PVD-coated carbide by Tungaloy

XPMT150512R-DJ AH6030 is an indexable drill insert designed for use in full-drill systems with TDX bodies, suited to general drilling where a sharp cutting edge and high process security are required

• XPMT insert for TDX drill bodies
• PVD-coated AH6030 grade for wear resistance
• 1.2 mm corner radius for reliable cutting
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

Stable production through proven cutting performance

The XPMT150512R-DJ insert is part of the TungDrillTwisted family and delivers consistent results in repetitive drilling operations. The PVD-coated AH6030 grade provides a balance between edge sharpness and resistance to wear and chipping, which translates into fewer tool changes and steadier cycle times. By combining a controlled cutting geometry with a robust substrate, the insert reduces the risk of premature edge failure and supports predictable throughput in production environments.

Material and coating engineered to extend tool life

A carbide substrate with a PVD surface finish enables the insert to withstand abrasive and intermittent cutting conditions commonly encountered in general drilling. The coating improves heat resistance and lowers flank wear, while the substrate ensures structural support for the cutting edge. This combination results in measurable savings: longer intervals between indexings and reduced scrap due to degraded edges. For operations prioritising uptime and repeatability, the coated grade provides reliable performance under varied cutting speeds.

Geometry and chip control that simplify machining

The insert’s 1.2 mm corner radius and DJ chipbreaker are configured to promote stable chip formation and evacuation in through-hole drilling. The plate design with a cylindrical hole and a single-sided countersink (40°–60°) assists secure clamping in TDX bodies and helps maintain repeatable seat positions. These design elements reduce the need for manual intervention during tool changes and ease process parameter development on new components, contributing to faster setup and less machine downtime.

Practical compatibility and selection guidance

Designed for integration with TDX/C-TDX drill bodies, the insert family offers flexibility through variants in overhang length, L/D ratio and interface type. Selection should match the machine spindle, coolant supply and workpiece material; the AH6030 grade suits applications where a sharp cutting edge and process stability are required. For customers seeking guidance on matching insert size, L/D and holder interface, technical advice is available to ensure the right combination for the intended operating window.

FAQ

What materials are suitable for machining with this insert?
The XPMT150512R-DJ AH6030 indexable insert is optimised for general drilling applications where a sharp cutting edge and process security are required; the PVD-coated carbide grade performs well across a broad range of steels and common engineering materials.

Which drill bodies are compatible with this insert?
This insert is intended for use in TDX/C-TDX drill bodies as part of the TungDrillTwisted system, ensuring secure seating and repeatable performance when assembled correctly.

What does the AH6030 grade offer compared with other grades?
AH6030 is a PVD-coated carbide grade designed for wear and chipping resistance while maintaining a sharp edge; in practice this yields longer tool life and improved process stability compared with uncoated or softer grades.

How does the 1.2 mm corner radius affect drilling results?
A 1.2 mm corner radius provides a compromise between edge strength and hole finish, improving resistance to chipping during entry while contributing to consistent hole geometry throughout the drilling cycle.

What is the SKU for ordering the original insert?
The original Tungaloy insert is listed as SKU 6718262-Tungaloy (manufacturer SKU TUN6718262) and can be referenced when enquiring about availability and compatibility.
