DCMT11T308 AH6235 Tungaloy turning insert — PVD-coated carbide, 7° clearance

A DCMT11T308 AH6235 Tungaloy turning insert engineered for external and internal turning where interrupted cuts and stainless steels require a tougher grade

• PVD-coated carbide for tough materials
• 7° clearance angle for stable cutting
• Rhombic format, ISO-compliant geometry
• 0.8 mm corner radius for consistent finishes

Increased process reliability for demanding turning operations

This indexable insert brings consistent chip control and extended edge life through its PVD-coated carbide grade. The AH6235 designation indicates a tougher substrate optimised for stainless steel and interrupted cuts, which reduces the risk of edge chipping under unstable conditions. The ISO-compliant rhombic geometry ensures compatibility with a wide range of external holders and boring bars, enabling smooth integration into existing setups and predictable cutting behaviour.

Precision features that support surface quality and repeatability

The combination of a 0.8 mm corner radius and a 7° clearance delivers a balance between cutting edge strength and surface finish. The small corner radius allows for accurate profile control, while the specified clearance minimises rubbing and heat buildup at the flank, contributing to repeatable part quality over longer runs. Operators benefit from fewer part reworks and more consistent dimensional results when the insert is matched to appropriate speeds and feeds.

Practical design that simplifies tool selection and mounting

The insert is supplied in the ISO designation DCMT11T308 and features a cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°) for secure clamping. Plate thickness of 3.97 mm and standard size 11 ensure fitment across many holders; selection depends on holder form, free angle, tolerance class and fastening system. The single-sided chipbreaker helps channel chips away from the cutting zone, reducing heat concentration and supporting uninterrupted cycle times in medium-duty turning.

Proven brand performance and application guidance

Manufactured by Tungaloy, this grade reflects a focus on productive machining with modern coating technology and robust substrate properties. The insert suits applications where controlled fracturing or frequent interruptions occur and where a durable cutting edge is essential. For tailored process parameters and matching holder suggestions, technical consultation is available to align the insert grade and chipbreaker with the workpiece material and machining stability.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The DCMT11T308 AH6235 Tungaloy insert is designed primarily for stainless steel and applications with interrupted cuts, where the tougher PVD-coated carbide grade reduces the risk of chipping.

How does the 0.8 mm corner radius affect finishing?
A 0.8 mm corner radius provides a compromise between edge strength and surface finish; the insert produces consistent profiles while maintaining robustness under variable cutting conditions.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, the ISO designation DCMT11T308 and rhombic format ensure compatibility with matching ISO external and internal turning holders when form, free angle and fastening match the holder specifications.
