WNMG 080408 AH8015 turning insert, PVD-coated cemented carbide by Tungaloy

A WNMG080408-TH AH8015 ISO turning insert designed for external and internal turning of heat-resistant alloys and general-purpose machining.

• ISO WNMG080408 trigon insert
• PVD-coated cemented carbide AH8015
• 0.8 mm corner radius for stable cuts
• TH chipbreaker for controlled chip formation

Reliable cutting performance for demanding turning operations

The PVD-coated cemented carbide grade AH8015 offers a balanced combination of wear resistance and edge stability, making it a dependable choice for machining heat-resistant alloys and mixed-material batches. The coating extends tool life under thermal load while the substrate maintains a strong cutting edge, resulting in consistent surface quality and fewer insert changes. This leads directly to reduced machine downtime and improved process predictability in production environments where repeatability and throughput are critical.

Fast integration and secure clamping for efficient setups

Compatibility with toolholders is governed by form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; the trigon form and 80° angle of this ISO insert ensure stable clamping in standard external holders and suitable boring bars. The insert features a cylindrical hole for secure fixation, a 4.76 mm thickness that provides rigidity, and a 0° clearance that supports precise axial engagement. When paired with the correct holder, shim and clamping set plus spare screws, set‑up times are reduced and machining accuracy improves, enabling more predictable cycle times and less trial-and-error during tool changes.

Economical machining by design and informed selection

The 0.8 mm corner radius and TH chipbreaker are engineered to balance strength and finish: the radius reinforces the cutting edge under intermittent cuts while the chipbreaker helps form controllable chips for safe evacuation. Choosing this grade for turning operations helps to avoid premature edge chipping and stabilises wear progression, which translates into lower tooling costs per component and higher overall efficiency. If material, operation type or machine dynamics are uncertain, Metav Werkzeuge can advise on the optimal chipbreaker and holder combination to match the application.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The Tungaloy WNMG080408-TH AH8015 insert is optimised for machining heat-resistant alloys and offers a balanced solution for mixed alloy batches where wear resistance and edge stability are required.

How does the 0.8 mm corner radius affect results?
A 0.8 mm corner radius increases edge strength and helps resist chipping under intermittent loads, improving the insert’s life and contributing to a more consistent surface finish with the AH8015 grade.

Will this insert fit standard holders?
Compatibility depends on form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; the ISO WNMG080408 form and trigon geometry are compatible with holders and boring bars designed for WNMG inserts when matched by those parameters.

What are the benefits of the AH8015 PVD coating?
The AH8015 grade combines a PVD coating with a carbide substrate to enhance wear resistance and maintain cutting-edge stability, which supports longer tool life and more predictable machining performance.

When should the TH chipbreaker be selected?
The TH chipbreaker is suited for controlled chip formation in general turning operations; selection should be based on workpiece material, machining strategy and machine stability to achieve the best combination of surface finish and chip control.
