WNMG 080408 AH120 — ISO WNMG080408-SS turning insert (trigon), 0.8 mm radius — Tungaloy

The WNMG080408-SS AH120 is an ISO trigon turning insert designed for reliable external and internal turning where a sharp cutting edge and process security are required.

• PVD-coated carbide AH120
• Trigon form for three usable edges
• 0.8 mm corner radius for robustness
• Compatible with ISO WNMG holders

High-performance cutting with a wear-resistant grade

The combination of a PVD-coated surface and carbide substrate in this grade delivers enhanced resistance to wear and chipping under a broad range of cutting conditions. The specification emphasises process reliability, which translates into fewer interruptions for tool change and more consistent workpiece quality. This performance is particularly relevant in serial production or mixed-batch environments where repeatable results and long tool life contribute directly to productivity gains.

Geometry and system compatibility that simplify tool selection

The trigon geometry and 0.8 mm corner radius provide a balance between edge strength and versatility: the small radius supports durable cutting edges while still allowing acceptable surface finish on turned components. Conformance to the ISO standard for insert form, size and thickness ensures straightforward interchangeability with standard WNMG holders; compatibility is determined by form, relief angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness. The insert’s 0° relief and the presence of a cylindrical locating hole support simple, repeatable clamping and indexing in suitable toolholders.

Target applications and economic benefit

Designed for general turning operations, the SS chipbreaker paired with the AH120 grade gives stable chip control and good edge integrity in many turning tasks. As an indexable insert, each component provides multiple cutting edges, reducing per-edge cost and contributing to long tool life and reduced downtime for regrinding or replacement. The result is a practical balance of productivity and tool economy for workshops and production facilities seeking reliable process performance.

Practical handling and integration advice

The insert is part of a complete system that includes a matching outer holder or boring bar, shims/clamping sets and replacement screws; correct assembly ensures the expected performance and life. Selection of the chipbreaker and grade should follow the workpiece material, the machining strategy and the required stability; when in doubt, match the SS chipbreaker and AH120 grade for applications where fracture resistance and a sharp cutting edge are priorities. Routine inspection of clamping elements and correct seating of the insert will help maintain consistent results and extend service intervals.
