• Double-sided insert with cylindrical hole
• ISO DNMG 150608 for external and internal turning

Increased resistance to chipping for stainless-steel machining

The PVD-coated AH6235 grade combines a tough substrate with a wear-resistant surface to resist crater wear and reduce micro-chipping under unstable cutting conditions. This composition is especially advantageous when machining stainless steels or when facing interrupted cuts, where edge security is critical. The coating improves thermal stability and reduces adhesion of workpiece material to the cutting edge, which in turn contributes to a more consistent surface finish and extended tool life. For production environments, this means fewer insert changes and a steadier process window, supporting higher machine utilisation and lower per-part costs.

Geometry engineered for secure clamping and repeatable results

The rhombic 15 mm plate form with a 0.8 mm corner radius and a 0° clearance angle is optimised for a wide range of turning tasks. The double-sided geometry and cylindrical hole ensure straightforward indexing and a compact operating envelope, while the ISO conformity simplifies holder selection. Compatibility to a holder depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, plate size and thickness; using the correct matched holder, support pad and fastening hardware secures repeatable seating and concentricity. Clear information on these interfaces reduces set-up time, prevents unintended runout and improves overall process reliability.

Productivity gains through matched chip control and grade selection

A chipbreaker adapted to component material and machining stability is essential for uninterrupted throughput. The double-sided chipbreaker on this insert provides controlled chip formation for many stainless-steel grades, improving evacuation in turning cycles and lowering the risk of snarled chips. By selecting a tougher grade for challenging materials, the cutting edge withstands higher mechanical loads and occasional impacts, so productivity is maintained even under variable conditions. For manufacturers seeking predictable batch output and reduced tooling interventions, this approach pays off in shorter cycle times and fewer stoppages. For further optimisation, Metav Werkzeuge offers application advice and matching holder recommendations to align insert choice with machine capacity and fixture rigidity.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The AH6235 grade is formulated for machining stainless steels and applications with elevated chipping risk; the insert performs well in interrupted cuts and sticky alloys.

How does the plate geometry affect holder choice?
The rhombic 15 mm form, 6.35 mm thickness and cylindrical hole require a matching ISO DNMG holder with compatible clamping, relief angle and tolerance to ensure repeatable seating and minimal runout.

Is the insert indexed on both sides?
Yes, the insert is double-sided with a double-sided chipbreaker, allowing two usable edges per index and effective chip control in many turning operations.

Can this insert improve process stability in short runs?
The tougher carbide substrate combined with the PVD coating increases edge security, which supports stable machining even in short-run or mixed-batch production.

Which chipbreaker should be chosen for aluminium or non-ferrous alloys?
Although this AH6235 grade is optimised for stainless steels, chipbreaker selection should match the workpiece material and machine stability; consult Metav Werkzeuge for a suitable alternative for aluminium or non-ferrous alloys.
