VBMT 110302 AH725 – ISO turning insert for general-purpose turning (Tungaloy)

VBMT 110302 AH725 is an ISO rhombic turning insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a universal, crack-resistant grade suitable for steel and rostfreier Stahl.

• ISO rhombic insert, 35° cutting angle
• PVD-coated carbide AH725 for reliability
• PSF chipbreaker for stable chip control
• 0.2 mm nose radius for fine profiling

Consistent process reliability through tailored grade and coating

The combination of a PVD-coated carbide substrate and the AH725 grade provides predictable tool life in mixed-production environments. The PVD layer enhances surface hardness and wear resistance while the underlying carbide maintains edge stability; together they reduce flank wear and extend in-process intervals. For workshops that switch frequently between different steel alloys and rostfreier Stahl, this configuration supports stable machining parameters and lowers the risk of unexpected insert failure, contributing to fewer machine stops and a smoother production flow.

Precision geometry for accurate form and surface quality

The 35° cutting angle and 0.2 mm nose radius deliver controlled cutting forces and refined profile definition when turning contours or finishing bores. The rhombic shape with a 5° clearance angle helps maintain contact geometry over varied engagement conditions, so form accuracy and surface finish improve without sacrificing productivity. This geometry is particularly suited to smaller holders where vibration sensitivity is higher; the result is repeatable tolerance attainment and reduced rework.

Practical advantages of the PSF chipbreaker and ISO compatibility

The integrated PSF chipbreaker is optimised for general turning tasks and promotes short, segmented chips that evacuate cleanly from the cut. This lowers the likelihood of entanglement and improves tool life in both external and internal operations. Conformity to the ISO dimensions (VBMT110302-PSF) ensures predictable compatibility with standard external holders and boring bars; correct seating is determined by insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment style, size and thickness, which simplifies tool planning across multiple machines.

Application scope and handling benefits for production environments

As a universal, breakage-resistant grade, AH725 is engineered for stable chip formation across a broad material range, including common steels and rostfreier Stahl. The insert’s 3.18 mm thickness and rhombic form support robust clamping and consistent torque transfer, while the central hole with a cylindrical bore plus a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) enables secure fastening and straightforward orientation. For production lines that prioritise process security and ease of tool management, this insert helps maintain cycle time and product quality with minimal adjustment.

FAQ

Is this insert suitable for rostfreier Stahl?
The VBMT 110302 AH725 is specified for steel and rostfreier Stahl; the AH725 grade provides stable chip formation and wear resistance in such materials.

What does the PSF chipbreaker achieve in practice?
The PSF chipbreaker produces short, controlled chips to improve evacuation and reduce the risk of chip entanglement during turning operations with the VBMT 110302-PSF insert.

Which holders are compatible with this ISO insert?
Compatibility depends on insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment style, size and thickness; the ISO dimensions of the VBMT110302 design facilitate matching with standard external holders and boring bars.

How does the 0.2 mm nose radius affect finishing?
A 0.2 mm nose radius balances edge strength and detail accuracy, enabling fine profiling and improved surface quality while maintaining sufficient resistance to chipping.
