RDMW 0501M0 AH120 – Tungaloy indexable milling insert for milling

The RDMW0501M0 AH120 is a PVD‑coated carbide indexable insert designed for integration into Tungaloy milling systems, suitable for face, shoulder, slot and high‑feed milling where edge stability and process reliability are required.

• PVD‑coated carbide AH120 for wear resistance
• Optimised for shoulder, slot and contour milling
• Cylindrical hole with one‑sided countersink 40°–60°
• Plate thickness 1.59 mm; 15° relief angle

Reliable cutting performance through optimised material and coating

The insert combines a PVD‑coated surface with a tough carbide substrate to deliver high wear resistance and reliable edge retention during interrupted and continuous milling operations. The selected grade is engineered to resist chipping under common milling loads, which translates into longer tool life, fewer indexings and a more predictable production rhythm. This technical combination supports stable cutting conditions and reduces the need for frequent tool changeovers, contributing to consistent component quality and reduced process variability.

Accurate seating and secure clamping for repeatable results

A well‑matched seat and clamping arrangement are essential for repeatable tool life and dimensional accuracy. The insert features a cylindrical hole with a one‑sided countersink (40°–60°) that ensures positive location on compatible cutter bodies and stable torque transmission from the clamping screw. The 1.59 mm plate thickness and standard 05 size deliver a compact geometry that suits light to medium milling cutters, while the 15° relief angle promotes controlled chip formation and clearances that help prevent rubbing and thermal escalation in the cutting zone.

Versatile application range with process security

Designed for general milling tasks within the designated system family, the component is suitable for face, shoulder, slot and high‑feed milling depending on the assigned cutter body. The cutting geometry and the AH120 grade aim for process reliability, making the insert a good choice where a sharp cutting edge and resistance to wear and breakage are expected. Absence of a dedicated chipbreaker in this variant means the insert is best paired with cutter bodies and machining parameters that manage chip evacuation effectively; when combined with correct feeds and speeds, the result is efficient material removal and consistent surface condition.

FAQ

What machining tasks suit this insert best?
This indexable insert is intended for face, shoulder, slot and high‑feed milling when used in compatible Tungaloy milling systems; the AH120 grade focuses on wear resistance and edge stability.

Is the insert compatible with any cutter body?
The seating, geometry and clamping require technical compatibility with the cutter body; the insert is made for Tungaloy milling systems that accept the RDMW0501M0 form and the specified mounting hole and countersink.

Does this variant include a chipbreaker?
This version is supplied without a chipbreaker; chip control depends on the chosen cutter body, cutting parameters and material being machined.

Which materials can be machined with this grade?
The AH120 PVD‑coated carbide is formulated for broad material coverage with an emphasis on wear and breakage resistance; suitable selection of feeds and speeds is advised for each workpiece material.

How is the insert secured on the cutter?
The insert locates and clamps via its central cylindrical hole and is designed to work with a clamping screw and, where applicable, a support plate to ensure secure seating and repeatable torque transmission.
