Take advantage of the combination of PVD-coated carbide durability and a precise 0.8 mm nose radius for consistent turning results; the ISO CCMT form ensures simple holder compatibility while the universal AH725 grade delivers secure chip control and reliable tool life — order via Metav Werkzeuge or contact the consultants for tailored advice.

CCMT060208 AH725 turning insert (ISO CCMT060208) by Tungaloy — PVD-coated carbide for turning

A CCMT060208 AH725 ISO turning insert designed for external and internal turning operations, offering a rhombic form, one-sided chipbreaker and mounting via a cylindrical hole with a 40°–60° countersink.

• ISO CCMT form, 80° included angle
• PVD-coated AH725 carbide grade
• One-sided chipbreaker for stable chips

Accurate fit and predictable clamping for quick tool changes

The ISO CCMT060208 geometry follows international standards, which makes matching the insert to a suitable holder straightforward: compatibility is determined by form, relief angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness. The rhombic shape with an 80° included angle provides a balanced compromise between strength and access, while the cylindrical hole with a 40°–60° countersink secures repeatable seating. This standardisation reduces setup time, minimises alignment errors and supports predictable tool life — important for batch production and mixed-operation shops where reproducibility matters.

Material and coating tuned for mixed-material shop floors

The PVD layer on the PVD-coated carbide substrate and the AH725 grade combine to form a universal, breakage-resistant solution for machining Stahl and rostfreier Stahl. The coating improves wear resistance at elevated temperatures and helps maintain edge integrity during interrupted cuts or when switching between materials. In practice, this means fewer indexings and longer service intervals compared with uncoated grades, which translates into better machine uptime and lower per-part tooling cost while maintaining consistent surface finish quality.

Chip control and process security for stable productivity

The single-sided chipbreaker provides controlled chip formation under a range of cutting conditions; this aids evacuation and reduces the risk of re-cutting chips, particularly in short-to-medium turning operations. Combined with the modest 0.8 mm nose radius, the insert supports good surface finish without excessive cutting forces, making it suitable for finishing and medium roughing passes. The 7° relief prevents rubbing at the flank and helps preserve tool geometry, so the cutting action remains efficient and repeatable, supporting higher process security on automated lathes.

Practical system considerations and application recommendations

Installed as part of an ISO-turning system — insert, matching external holder or boring bar, shim/locating set and spare clamping screws — this plate is well suited to conventional and CNC turning. The plate thickness of 2.38 mm contributes to rigidity in smaller toolholders, and the size designation 06 corresponds to common holder families, easing procurement and stock management. Where machining mixes of Stahl and rostfreier Stahl are frequent, the AH725 grade reduces the need for multiple specialised grades, simplifying tool inventory and lowering total tooling costs over time.

FAQ

What is the primary application for this insert?
The CCMT060208 AH725 turning insert by Tungaloy is intended for external and internal turning operations, offering stable chip control and reliable performance when machining Stahl and rostfreier Stahl.

How does the AH725 grade perform across different materials?
The AH725 PVD-coated carbide grade provides universal, breakage-resistant behaviour; this makes the insert suitable for mixed-material environments where switching between Stahl and rostfreier Stahl is common.

Which holders are compatible with the ISO CCMT060208 geometry?
Compatibility depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, attachment type, size and thickness; holders matching the CCMT form and size 06 with support for a 2.38 mm thickness are appropriate for this insert.

What does the one-sided chipbreaker deliver in practice?
The one-sided chipbreaker helps to produce predictable, segmented chips that evacuate cleanly, reducing re-cutting and aiding consistent surface finish, especially during short to medium turning passes.

Is the insert suitable for finishing passes?
Yes. The 0.8 mm nose radius and 7° relief balance surface finish and cutting forces, making the insert suitable for finishing and medium roughing when the appropriate cutting parameters are applied.
