PNCU0905GN AH725 Tungaloy PNCU 0905GN pentagonal indexable insert — DoFeed high-feed milling

The PNCU0905GN AH725 Tungaloy insert is a pentagonal indexable cutting insert developed for high-feed milling, pocketing and face machining in mixed and stainless steel applications

• DoFeed series for high-feed milling
• PVD-coated AH725 universal grade
• Pentagonal 09 format, 5.56 mm thickness
• Cylindrical hole with double countersink 40°–60°

High-feed performance with minimal axial depth

The DoFeed family is engineered to deliver large time-volume removal at very small axial depths, which enables substantially shorter cycle times on milling tasks that demand high productivity. The combination of the high-feed milling concept and the pentagonal form offers five index positions, increasing usable edge life and minimising tool change frequency. The neutral relief with 0° clearance supports steady cutting forces, while the 108° included angle spreads the load across the insert, reducing peak stresses and improving stability during pocket and face machining.

Universal, PVD-coated grade for mixed workpieces

The PVD-coated AH725 is a universal, fracture-resistant carbide grade tailored for machining both steel and stainless steels under varying conditions. Its coating enhances wear resistance and contributes to consistent edge life when materials change from one batch to another. This universality reduces the need for multiple grades in the tool store and supports process security in mixed-production environments; the result is fewer stoppages and a more predictable production rhythm for shops that work with different steels.

Secure clamping and precise geometry for repeatable results

The pentagonal plate in 09 format with a plate thickness of 5.56 mm and a cylindrical hole with double-sided countersink (40°–60°) ensures reliable location and repeatable clamping when used with the matching milling body and screws. The double-sided chipbreaker geometry aids chip control in interrupted and pocket milling, reducing re-cutting of chips and lowering the risk of edge damage. These design elements together provide a robust interface between toolholder and insert, supporting consistent surface finish and reduced inspection rework.

Process benefits and application guidance

When applied to high-feed finishing and pocketing, this insert helps lower machining time while maintaining a fine surface quality, thanks to its combination of geometry and grade. The insert is especially suitable for smaller tools and operations with high demands on process stability. For practical implementation, pairing the plate with a correctly specified DoFeed milling body and recommended cutting parameters will yield the intended advantages in cycle time and tool life.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The PNCU0905GN AH725 Tungaloy insert is specified for machining steel and stainless steels and is optimised for applications involving changing workpiece materials.

How does the pentagonal shape improve productivity?
A pentagonal indexable insert provides five usable cutting edges, which increases net cutting-edge availability and reduces frequency of insert replacement in high-feed milling operations.

Is the grade suitable for small-diameter tooling?
The AH725 PVD-coated grade is formulated to be fracture-resistant and is appropriate for smaller tool diameters where process security is critical; the PNCU0905GN AH725 Tungaloy plate benefits such tool setups.

What clamping features ensure repeatability?
The combination of a cylindrical hole with a double-sided countersink (40°–60°) and the defined plate thickness ensures secure seating and repeatable axial and radial positioning when used with the correct DoFeed milling body.
