CNMG 160608 AH8015 — Turning insert (Tungaloy), PVD-coated carbide, double-sided

The CNMG160608 AH8015 is a rhombic ISO turning insert designed for general turning of heat-resistant alloys and compatible with ISO holders.

• PVD-coated carbide AH8015
• Rhombic CNMG geometry for versatility
• Double-sided chipbreaker for economy
• Cylindrical hole for secure clamping

Reliable performance for general turning of heat-resistant alloys

The PVD-coated carbide grade AH8015 offers an engineered balance between wear resistance and cutting-edge stability, making it well suited for the general machining of heat-resistant alloys. The coating improves thermal resistance and reduces adhesion at elevated temperatures, which translates into longer tool life and fewer index changes. By selecting a grade that balances toughness and hardness, process consistency is enhanced and downtime for tool changes is reduced, supporting steady production flows.

Geometry and dimensions that deliver repeatable results

The CNMG rhombic form with a leading 80° approach angle and a 0° clearance offers a predictable cut geometry that supports stable chip formation and dimensional control. The insert thickness of 6.35 mm and the 0.8 mm corner radius contribute to mechanical rigidity and edge strength, suitable for both finishing and moderate roughing passes. The presence of a cylindrical hole enables secure clamping in standard ISO-compatible holders, ensuring repeatable seating and accurate indexing that preserve part tolerances over multiple insert changes.

Cost-efficient indexing and reliable clamping for production environments

Featuring a double-sided chipbreaker, the insert provides two usable cutting edges per index, improving economy without compromising surface quality. The standardised ISO design simplifies the selection of matching holders, clamp sets and replacement screws, reducing procurement complexity in mixed-tool fleets. For assistance with holder compatibility, selection of the appropriate chipbreaker and optimisation of cutting parameters, Metav Werkzeuge provides technical guidance and component sourcing to support productive machining.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The CNMG160608 AH8015 insert is specified for general machining of heat-resistant alloys; the PVD-coated AH8015 grade balances wear resistance and edge stability for such materials.

How does the double-sided chipbreaker affect cost efficiency?
A double-sided chipbreaker provides two usable edges per index, improving edge economy and reducing the frequency of insert replacement in continuous production.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, the ISO-design CNMG geometry and cylindrical hole ensure compatibility with ISO-standard turning holders, though holder choice must match form, clearance, size and thickness.

What does the 0.8 mm corner radius mean for finishing?
A 0.8 mm corner radius increases edge strength for stable cutting; it supports a good surface finish while offering resistance to chipping in interrupted or moderate-depth cuts.

Where to get technical advice or order accessories like clamps and screws?
