SNMG 120404 AH6235 PVD-coated indexable turning insert — Tungaloy

SNMG120404 AH6235 is an ISO‑compliant square insert engineered for external and internal turning, optimised for stainless steels and interrupted cuts with a cylindrical hole and a 0° clearance angle

• PVD-coated carbide for stainless steel applications
• Square ISO insert SNMG with 0.4 mm corner radius
• Double-sided chipbreaker for interrupted cuts
• Cylindrical-hole insert, 4.76 mm thickness

Better cutting results on stainless steels and demanding cuts

The PVD-coated grade offers a balanced combination of wear resistance and toughness: the AH6235 formulation is designed to reduce chipping during unstable engagement and to withstand the work-hardening tendency of stainless steels. As a result, the indexable plate maintains edge integrity for longer periods, which translates into fewer tool changes and more predictable cycle times. The coating reduces friction at the cutting edge, helping to control built-up edge and improving surface finish on parts that are sensitive to thermal and mechanical effects.

Consistent process control through ISO conformity and secure clamping

The insert follows ISO geometry and dimensions, making system compatibility straightforward when paired with the correct holder. Compatibility is determined by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; ensuring the right match preserves the insert seat and enables repeatable clamping forces. The square configuration with a 90° included angle supports robust axial and radial engagement, while the 0° clearance angle is suitable for many external turning set-ups. Using an appropriate, ISO-mating holder keeps cuts stable and minimises vibration, which benefits both accuracy and component quality.

Efficient handling and economic machining for production environments

The double-sided chipbreaker and modest 0.4 mm corner radius provide a pragmatic balance between edge strength and profile control, especially in interrupted operations. With a plate thickness of 4.76 mm, the insert offers solid support under load and contributes to extended tool life through a stable seating area. The double-sided chipbreaker design allows indexation to a fresh cutting edge, lowering overall tooling cost per part. For best results, pair the plate with a holder and clamping set that match its dimensions and select cutting parameters mindful of material tendencies to achieve both productivity and component integrity.
