TNMG160412 AH110 Tungaloy indexable turning insert — PVD-coated carbide, 60° triangle

The TNMG160412 AH110 is a PVD-coated carbide indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a sharp cutting edge and process-stable performance in a compact 16 mm inscribed circle geometry

• PVD-coated carbide grade AH110
• Sharp cutting edge for process security
• Double-sided chipbreaker for flexibility
• 60° triangle shape, 16 mm inscribed circle

Increased throughput through stable, wear-resistant cutting

The combination of PVD-coated carbide and the AH110 grade offers a significant improvement in wear resistance and edge stability compared with uncoated grades. The PVD layer provides a hard, thermally stable surface that reduces flank wear and keeps the sharp cutting edge longer under intermittent and continuous cutting conditions. For production environments this translates into fewer insert changes, more consistent part geometry and a measurable increase in net productivity. The coating also helps to reduce built-up edge formation when machining demanding materials, which supports repeatable results and predictable tool life.

Versatile geometry for external and internal turning applications

The insert’s 60° triangle geometry with a 16 mm inscribed circle and a cutting-edge radius of 1.2 mm suits a broad range of turning tasks where access and form accuracy matter. The plate is double-sided and features a cylindrical hole, enabling reliable clamping and straightforward indexing. The nominal thickness 4.76 mm and specified clearance angle 0° are compatible with ISO-standard holders when form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness are matched. Selecting the correct double-sided chipbreaker and grade for the part material and machining stability allows the same insert to be used across roughing and finishing steps, reducing tool inventory complexity.

Easy system integration and predictable economics

The insert integrates into a standard ISO turning system comprising an indexable insert, an appropriate external holder or boring bar, and the clamping set. Because compatibility depends on measurable parameters rather than ambiguous labels, toolroom staff can match the insert reliably to existing holders and spare screws. Choosing the AH110 grade with its emphasis on process security and fracture resistance lowers the risk of premature edge failure in interrupted cuts, contributing to longer effective tool life and lower production costs per component. For job shops and series manufacturers alike, the result is a balance of reliability and economical performance with a straightforward path to reproducible surface finish and dimensional stability.

FAQ

What holder features determine compatibility with this insert?
Compatibility is determined by holder form, freestanding clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; the TNMG160412 AH110 Tungaloy indexable insert requires a matching holder geometry and clamping set.

Which materials suit the AH110 grade best?
The AH110 grade is engineered for wear- and fracture-resistant turning; the TNMG160412 AH110 insert performs well across common steels and mixed material batches where a sharp cutting edge and process security are required.

What benefit does the PVD coating bring for this insert?
The PVD coating on the TNMG160412 AH110 reduces flank wear, improves thermal resistance and helps prevent built-up edge, which supports consistent surface finish and extended tool life.

Is the insert reversible or single-sided?
The TNMG160412 AH110 insert is double-sided; each side can be indexed to present a fresh cutting edge, enabling efficient use of the plate and reducing tool consumption.

Can this insert be used for both roughing and finishing?
With the appropriate chipbreaker and machine stability, the TNMG160412 AH110 indexable plate can be applied to roughing and finishing operations; selection should be based on workpiece material and required surface quality.
