DCMT11T308 AH6235 ISO turning insert for turning applications, Tungaloy

A DCMT11T308 AH6235 indexable turning insert optimised for external and internal turning of stainless steels and for interrupted cutting conditions

• ISO rhombic insert, 55° geometry
• PVD-coated carbide grade AH6235
• Suitable for stainless steels and interrupted cuts
• Cylindrical hole with one-sided countersink 40°–60°

Improved tool life and consistent results for demanding materials

The PVD-coated AH6235 grade delivers a tougher carbide matrix designed to resist edge chipping during challenging operations. In machining stainless steels and applications with frequent interruptions, the harder-wearing surface and optimised microstructure result in reduced flank wear and longer intervals between insert changes. This improves process stability and helps to maintain a consistent surface finish, which is especially relevant for serial production or critical single-part runs.

Geometry and chip control that stabilise the cutting process

The rhombic 55° profile combined with a 0.8 mm corner radius and a 7° clearance angle balances edge strength with access to contour features. The integrated single-sided chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation, lowering the likelihood of built-up edge and subsequent workpiece damage. The insert’s cylindrical hole with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) ensures repeatable seating and secure clamping in ISO-compatible toolholders, contributing to reliable run-out and repeatability across tool changes.

System compatibility and efficient workshop integration

As an ISO-standard insert, this part is intended to function within a complete turning system: indexable insert, matched external holder or boring bar, shim/clamping set and replacement screws. Compatibility depends on insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening and thickness, so selection of the correct holder is essential for achieving the expected performance. Designed for both external and internal turning, the insert supports a productive workflow with fewer interruptions, reduced setup time and predictable machining cycles.

FAQ

Is this insert suitable for machining stainless steels?
The DCMT11T308 AH6235 Tungaloy indexable insert (SKU 6890175-Tungaloy) is optimised for stainless steels and for operations with a higher risk of edge breakout thanks to its tougher PVD-coated AH6235 grade.

Which holders are compatible with this insert?
Compatibility requires an ISO-compatible holder or boring bar that matches the insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; proper shims and a clamping set are recommended for secure seating.

What advantages does the AH6235 grade provide?
AH6235 offers improved edge strength and wear resistance for interrupted cuts and stainless-steel applications, resulting in longer tool life and more consistent surface quality.

How does the chipbreaker influence machining?
The single-sided chipbreaker supports controlled chip formation and evacuation, which reduces built-up edge and improves process reliability during turning.

How is the insert clamped in the toolholder?
Clamping is achieved via the cylindrical hole with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) together with the appropriate shim and clamping set, providing repeatable positioning and stable fixation.
