VNMG160412 AH6235 ISO turning insert — PVD-coated carbide, 35° lead angle — Tungaloy

The VNMG160412 AH6235 is an ISO rhombic turning insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a robust chip control solution for interrupted cuts and applications with increased breakout risk.

• PVD-coated carbide AH6235 for toughness
• Suitable for rostfreier Stahl and interrupted cuts
• Rhombic ISO 16 × 4.76 mm, 35° lead angle
• Double-sided chipbreaker, cylindrical locating hole

Faster, more reliable turning of demanding materials

The combination of a PVD-coated cutting grade and a tougher carbide substrate means the insert is engineered to resist chipping under unstable cutting conditions. The AH6235 grade targets applications with frequent interruptions and higher breakout risk, improving process stability when machining rostfreier Stahl. For production environments where tool change frequency directly affects throughput, this wear-resistant design contributes to a steadier cycle time and fewer unplanned stops, thereby supporting predictable output.

Clear compatibility reduces set-up time and rejects

Compatibility with toolholders is determined by geometry and mounting parameters rather than brand alone: ISO designation, form, 0° relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness must match the holder. The rhombic shape with a cylindrical locating hole and standard 16 mm inscribed circle simplifies selection for common external holders. Specifying the correct tolerance class and plate thickness (4.76 mm) avoids misfits and minimises set-up iterations, so machine shops benefit from quicker tool changes and less trial-and-error during first-off parts.

Practical geometry that improves surface and edge security

The rhombic plate form combined with a 35° lead angle delivers a good balance between cutting-edge strength and surface finish. The 1.2 mm corner radius reduces edge stress, helping to prevent micro-chipping on interrupted profiles, while the double-sided chipbreaker extends usable geometry before replacement. Together, these features reduce downtime and simplify logistics: fewer plate swaps, longer mean time between interventions and a predictable approach to finish quality on both profile turning and light ramping passes.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The VNMG160412 AH6235 insert is formulated for tougher materials and is especially suited to rostfreier Stahl and situations with interrupted cutting where chipping risk is elevated.

How is holder compatibility determined for this ISO insert?
Compatibility depends on form, relief angle (0°), tolerance class, fastening method, plate size (16 mm) and thickness (4.76 mm); matching these parameters ensures a secure fit with ISO external holders.

Does the insert offer chip control for interrupted cuts?
Yes, the double-sided chipbreaker and the AH6235 grade deliver improved chip control and edge security in interrupted cutting conditions.

Is this an indexable, reversible insert?
The rhombic, double-sided design allows both sides to be used where applicable, extending service life compared with single-sided plates.
