TNMG160404 AH8015 TNMG 160404 AH8015 turning insert, PVD-coated carbide, 60° — Tungaloy

A TNMG160404 AH8015 indexable insert designed for ISO-compliant turning, optimised for machining heat‑resistant alloys and general external and internal turning tasks.

• ISO TNMG 160404 geometry compatible holders
• PVD-coated carbide AH8015 for heat-resistant alloys
• Double-sided chipbreaker for reliable chip control
• 0.4 mm corner radius for precise profile work

Consistent performance on heat‑resistant alloys

The PVD-coated carbide grade AH8015 delivers a balanced combination of wear resistance and cutting-edge stability, making it a practical choice for the general machining of heat‑resistant alloys. The coating enhances resistance to abrasive and adhesive wear at elevated temperatures, which in turn supports longer tool life and fewer insert changes. This leads to a measurable improvement in process efficiency and lower downtime when machining demanding alloy grades.

Predictable chip control and reliable edge life

The triangular geometry with a 60° included angle and a double-sided chipbreaker offers controlled chip formation across a range of cutting conditions. The insert’s 0.4 mm radius provides a compromise between strength and profile accuracy, preserving edge stability while still enabling fine finishing passes. The central cylindrical hole ensures secure clamping in compatible holders, reducing vibration and maintaining edge life for repeatable surface quality.

Seamless system integration and ISO conformity

Produced to ISO dimensions, this insert integrates smoothly into standard TNMG holders. Compatibility with a holder is determined by insert form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; the ISO compliance simplifies selection and stocking across multiple machines. With a nominal size of 16, a relief angle of 0° and the standard TNMG160404 footprint, the insert fits established tool systems and reduces setup complexity in mixed‑fleet machining environments.

Practical application guidance and technical support

Choose the AH8015 grade and the double-sided chipbreaker when machining heat‑resistant alloys under stable clamping conditions for an economical balance of life and edge integrity. For unstable set-ups or interrupted cuts, consider adjustments to cutting parameters or a more robust grade.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert best suited for?
The TNMG160404 AH8015 Tungaloy insert is optimised for heat‑resistant alloys and general turning operations where a balance of wear resistance and edge stability is required.

How does the chipbreaker affect performance?
The double‑sided chipbreaker on this insert promotes consistent chip formation and evacuation, improving surface finish and reducing the risk of built‑up edge during turning.

Is this insert compatible with standard TNMG holders?
Yes; the insert follows ISO TNMG160404 dimensions and is compatible with holders that accept TNMG inserts, provided the holder matches form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening and size.

What are the key dimensions to check before ordering?
Check the designation TNMG160404, the corner radius (0.4 mm), the included angle (60°), the relief angle (0°) and the 16 mm nominal size to ensure correct fit.

Can the insert be indexed to use both sides?
The insert is double‑sided, allowing indexing to the second cutting edge where applicable, which can extend per‑insert utilisation in many turning cycles.
