WNMG 080416 AH8015 – indexable turning insert by Tungaloy, ISO standard, 80° geometry

WNMG080416-TM AH8015 is an ISO-standard triangular indexable insert designed for general turning applications, offering a PVD-coated carbide grade optimised for heat-resistant alloys and stable cutting performance.

• WNMG geometry, 80° cutting angle
• PVD-coated carbide AH8015 grade
• 1.6 mm corner radius for versatile profiles
• Compatible with ISO turning holders

Consistent performance for heat-resistant alloys and general turning

The insert delivers a reliable balance between wear resistance and edge stability thanks to the AH8015 PVD-coated carbide grade. This composition is specified for the general machining of heat-resistant alloys, where thermal and mechanical stress demand a robust cutting edge. The TM chipbreaker supports predictable chip formation, reducing downtime related to chip control. For production environments where repeatability and tool life affect cycle times, this geometry provides a measurable benefit: fewer insert changes and steadier part quality over long runs.

Geometry and dimensions that ensure repeatable accuracy

With an 80° included angle and a 1.6 mm corner radius, the triangular shape produces conservative engagement forces while maintaining the ability to generate defined profiles and transitions. The 4.76 mm plate thickness and the cylindrical locating hole give secure clamping and stable seating in standard ISO-compatible holders. These dimensional details translate directly into machining advantages: improved vibration damping, consistent tool projection, and dependable reference positioning for serial production or toolroom work where dimensional stability matters.

System compatibility and application guidance for efficient setup

Designed as part of an ISO insert system, the indexable plate requires a matching external holder, shim or clamping kit and replacement screws to complete the assembly. The insert’s designation and tolerance class determine holder compatibility; the WNMG form and the TM chipbreaker suit both external and internal turning when combined with an appropriate holder. Selecting this plate for turning operations supports efficient process planning: one insert family covers multiple workpiece materials and reduces tool inventory complexity while maintaining machining quality.

FAQ

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

What is the geometry and how does it affect cutting?
The insert features a WNMG triangular form with an 80° included angle and a 1.6 mm corner radius, providing stable engagement and versatility for profile turning and finishing passes.

How is the insert secured in the toolholder?
The plate has a cylindrical locating hole and requires a matching ISO-compatible holder, a shim or clamping kit, and the appropriate screws for secure mounting and repeatable positioning.

What is the role of the TM chipbreaker?
The TM chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation for general turning tasks, improving chip evacuation and reducing the risk of entanglement in a variety of cutting conditions.

Which system parts are needed to build a complete tooling setup?
A complete system comprises the ISO insert, a compatible external holder or boring bar, an underlay/shim or clamping set, and replacement screws to ensure correct clamping and positioning.
