TNMG 160404 AH120 TNMG indexable turning insert — PVD-coated carbide, 60° triangle (Tungaloy)

TNMG160404 AH120 is an ISO-design triangular indexable insert for turning, designed for applications that require a sharp edge and high process reliability

• ISO 60° triangular form with cylindrical hole
• PVD-coated carbide AH120 for wear resistance
• Double-sided chipbreaker for versatile turning
• 0.4 mm nose radius for medium-finishing cuts

Consistent, economical performance for external and internal turning

The PVD-coated carbide AH120 grade delivers a balance of wear resistance and edge toughness that supports uninterrupted production cycles. Its sharp cutting edge combined with a stable grade reduces flank wear and the risk of chipping, which prolongs edge life and lowers tool-change frequency. Designed as an ISO-standard insert, the geometry ensures repeatable seating and simple indexing in compatible holders, maintaining geometry accuracy across multiple repositions. This leads to tangible time savings in batch production and steady component quality.

Geometry and dimensions that simplify setup and increase process security

The triangular plate with a 60° included angle and a 0.4 mm nose radius provides a compromise between strength and surface finish. The insert thickness of 4.76 mm and inscribed circle of 16 mm pair with a cylindrical hole to ensure secure clamping in standard toolholders. A clearance angle of 0° and the double-sided chipbreaker design enable bidirectional use and predictable chip control in a range of turning operations. These defined measures support repeatable set-ups and stable cutting conditions, reducing setup time and scrap rates.

Material suitability and practical application advice

The grade is engineered for turning where a durable, sharp edge and process security are priorities. The double-sided chipbreaker supports consistent chip formation, while the PVD coating enhances thermal resistance and reduces adhesive wear during continuous cuts. Compatibility with holders is determined by insert form, relief angle, tolerance class, fixation, size and thickness; the typical system comprises the insert, an appropriate external holder or boring bar, a backing/locking set and replacement screws. For flexible workshop use, this insert is a pragmatic choice for medium to productive turning tasks.

FAQ

What types of operations is this insert intended for?
The TNMG160404 AH120 insert is intended for external and internal turning operations where a sharp cutting edge and process reliability are required.

Which grade and coating does this insert use?
This insert uses the AH120 grade with a PVD-coated carbide substrate for improved wear resistance and thermal stability.

How is chip control achieved with this insert?
Chip control is provided by the double-sided chipbreaker design, which offers consistent chip formation across common turning feeds and depths.

What dimensions are relevant when checking holder compatibility?
Key dimensions include the inscribed circle (16 mm), thickness (4.76 mm), nose radius (0.4 mm), included angle (60°) and the cylindrical hole—compatibility depends on form, relief angle, tolerance and fixation method.
