ACMT 060308 AH120 indexable insert for milling — PVD-coated carbide, 0.8 mm radius (Tungaloy)
The ACMT060308 AH120 indexable cutting insert is designed for use in Tungaloy milling systems and suited to face, shoulder, slot, high-feed and contour milling where a sharp cutting edge and process security are required.
- PVD-coated carbide AH120 for wear resistance
- 0.8 mm nose radius for precise corner control
- Parallelogram form with 85° cutting engagement
- Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° single countersink
Higher process security through wear-resistant grade and coating
The insert’s AH120 grade, combined with a PVD-coated cemented carbide substrate, delivers consistent flank life and resistance to chipping under interrupted cuts. This engineered combination reduces flank wear and maintains a sharp edge for longer, which translates into fewer index changes and improved uptime. Explained for clarity: a PVD coating forms a thin, hard surface layer that reduces adhesion and abrasion, while the carbide body supplies toughness; together they support predictable tool life and repeatable component tolerances.
Geometry that improves dimensional control and chip evacuation
A parallelogram shape and an 85° cutting engagement angle help to control entry conditions and distribute cutting forces evenly across the insert, reducing vibration risk. The 0.8 mm corner radius balances edge strength and finish quality, enabling sharper corners than larger radii while still resisting fracture. The insert’s single-sided chipbreaker and the cylindrical hole with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) assist in guided chip formation and secure clamping on the milling body; the result is improved surface finish and stable chip flow in a variety of steels and non-ferrous materials.
Broad application spectrum and system compatibility
Intended for milling applications, the insert is compatible with Tungaloy milling systems provided that seat geometry and clip location match the cutter body. Typical uses include planing of large faces, shoulder operations, slotting and high-feed passes depending on the chosen cutter family. The insert’s 3.18 mm thickness and standard size designation ensure mechanical stability in modern milling bodies. For mixed production runs the combination of a wear-resistant grade and reliable clamping yields predictable performance across batches, supporting leaner tool inventories and fewer process interruptions.

FAQ
What materials is this insert suited for?
The ACMT 060308 AH120 insert is a PVD-coated cemented carbide grade engineered for a broad material range and offers particular strength in demanding steel machining where wear resistance and edge security are required.
How does the chipbreaker affect performance?
The single-sided chipbreaker on the ACMT insert promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation, which stabilises cutting forces and contributes to consistent surface finish in milling operations.
Is the insert compatible with non-Tungaloy milling bodies?
Compatibility requires matching the seat geometry and clamping system; the insert’s ISO designation and dimensions must be confirmed against the cutter body before use to ensure secure fastening and correct engagement.
What are the locking and hole features of the insert?
The insert is supplied with a cylindrical hole and a one-sided countersink (40°–60°), designed to allow positive clamping and repeatable seating in compatible milling bodies.
How does the 0.8 mm radius influence machining results?
A 0.8 mm nose radius balances corner strength and edge definition, helping to achieve finer surface finishes and accurate corner radii while maintaining resistance to chipping under moderate interruption.
