TPMT 110304 AH6235 TPMT110304-PM – Tungaloy indexable turning insert, PVD‑coated carbide, 60° triangle, 0.4 mm radius

The TPMT110304‑PM AH6235 is an ISO‑standard triangular indexable insert for turning applications, designed primarily for stainless steels and operations with interrupted cuts; the PM chipbreaker and robust PVD coating support stable cutting under challenging conditions.

• PVD-coated carbide grade AH6235
• Optimised for stainless steels and interrupted cuts
• Triangular 60° geometry, 0.4 mm corner radius
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° single-side countersink

Consistent cutting performance for challenging materials

The combination of a PVD‑coated carbide substrate and the AH6235 grade delivers a balance of toughness and wear resistance that favours operations on stainless steels and other materials prone to work hardening. The PM chipbreaker is designed to promote controlled chip formation during interrupted cuts, reducing the risk of edge chipping and lengthening tool life. In practical terms, this means fewer unplanned indexings and a steadier process, which supports improved productivity and predictable cycle times.

Precision geometry for reliable holder compatibility

The insert’s triangular 60° geometry and 0.4 mm corner radius offer a versatile profile for external and internal turning where average to light finish is required. The ISO designation and standard dimensions make the component compatible with a wide range of ISO‑compliant holders; the 11° clearance angle and 3.18 mm plate thickness ensure the cutting edge sits at the correct approach, enabling stable cutting forces and consistent surface quality. This predictable geometry simplifies tool selection and reduces setup time in mixed‑production environments.

Coating and chip control that support process security

A PVD coating on a cemented carbide body provides enhanced resistance to abrasive wear while retaining edge toughness, an essential combination when machining stainless steels or when facing intermittent cutting conditions that can produce thermal spikes. The PM chipbreaker helps break and evacuate chips efficiently, lowering the likelihood of chip entanglement and improving operator safety. These attributes together help maintain higher cutting parameters for longer periods, translating into greater throughput and lower tooling costs per part.

Application guidance for stable results and longer runtimes

Suitable for general turning, facing and light profiling, this insert excels in situations where material variability and interrupted cuts are common. Selecting the PM chipbreaker and the AH6235 grade is recommended when the workpiece material is rostfreier Stahl (stainless steel) or when machining conditions increase the risk of edge breakdown. For best results, pair the insert with a compatible ISO‑design holder, verify clamping rigidity, and adjust feeds and speeds based on machine power and part rigidity to exploit the insert’s chip control and toughness without overloading the cutting edge.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The TPMT110304‑PM AH6235 insert is formulated for machining stainless steels and other materials where toughness and chip control are important; the AH6235 grade and PM chipbreaker support interrupted cuts.

How does the PM chipbreaker improve process stability?
The PM chipbreaker on this indexable turning insert controls chip shape and evacuation, reducing the risk of edge breakouts and supporting more consistent cutting conditions.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO turning holders?
Yes, the ISO designation and standard triangular geometry ensure compatibility with ISO‑compliant holders when form, thickness and tolerance class match.

What is the corner radius and why does it matter?
The insert has a 0.4 mm corner radius; smaller radii help achieve finer detail and reduce cutting forces in light finishing passes, while larger radii would be used for strength in roughing—0.4 mm represents a versatile compromise.

Does the PVD coating affect recommended cutting speeds?
The PVD coating on the cemented carbide body of this insert improves wear resistance and allows stable operation at higher cutting speeds compared with uncoated grades, but final parameters should be set according to machine rigidity and workpiece properties.
