ENEQ 160608 AH120 rhombic indexable insert for milling by Tungaloy — 75° geometry, 0.8 mm radius
A ENEQ160608 AH120 indexable insert designed for productive milling in Tungaloy systems, suitable for face, shoulder, slot, high-feed and contour milling when paired with the matching cutter body.
PVD-coated carbide AH120
Rhombic 75° geometry
0.8 mm corner radius
Centre hole with countersink 40°–60°
Longer tool life and predictable wear through AH120 coating
The PVD-coated carbide grade AH120 delivers a balance of wear and chipping resistance that supports higher process stability during milling. By combining a hard, adherent PVD layer with a tough carbide substrate, the insert resists abrasive wear while maintaining a sharp cutting edge; this results in longer tool life and more consistent surface quality in serial production. For operations where edge integrity and repeatability matter, the wear characteristics translate directly into reduced downtime and fewer insert changes.
Secure clamping and exact repeatability for reliable machining
A central cylindrical hole with double-sided countersink (40°–60°) provides stable mechanical engagement between insert and cutter body. This configuration ensures precise seat location and secure clamping, reducing micro-movement under load and improving concentricity. The plate thickness of 6.35 mm contributes to the clamping stiffness, while the integrated system design—insert, milling body, clamping screw and support plate—ensures consistent cutting conditions and simplified maintenance of clamping integrity.
Geometry engineered for strength and accessibility
The rhombic 75° geometry combines cutting-edge accessibility for shoulder and contour work with robust cutting edge support. The 0.8 mm corner radius helps distribute cutting forces and reduces the risk of chipping at the edge, which is particularly beneficial in mixed-machining tasks where interrupted cuts or variable engagement occur. A relief angle of 0° supports a neutral cutting attitude that can be advantageous for certain cutter body geometries and for maintaining a reliable cutting edge under varying loads.
Application focus: productive, versatile milling solutions
Intended for a wide range of milling tasks, the insert is suitable for face, shoulder, slot, high-feed and contour milling, depending on the designated tool family and body compatibility. When the insert is matched with the appropriate cutter it enables stable chip control and good surface finish across different materials. System compatibility is essential: seat, geometry and milling body must match technically to obtain the stated performance and reproducibility in production environments.

FAQ
What materials is this insert suited for?
The ENEQ160608 AH120 insert in PVD-coated carbide is designed for general milling tasks and supports a broad range of workpiece materials when used with the appropriate cutter body and cutting data.
How does the centre hole design affect performance?
A cylindrical centre hole with a double-sided countersink (40°–60°) ensures secure clamping and repeatable seating, improving machining stability and reducing the risk of micro-movement during heavy cuts.
What benefits does the 0.8 mm corner radius provide?
The 0.8 mm corner radius strengthens the cutting edge, lowering the likelihood of chipping and contributing to improved surface finish and longer insert life under varying engagement conditions.
Is the ENEQ160608 AH120 suitable for high-feed milling?
Yes, the insert is indicated for high-feed milling among other operations; selection must consider the cutter family and the specific tool body to achieve the desired cutting performance.
What system compatibility must be observed before use?
Seat geometry, insert form and the milling body must be technically compatible; the system requires the correct cutter body, clamping screw and, if applicable, a support plate to ensure safe and efficient operation.
