SNMG 150616 AH6225 — ISO turning insert by Tungaloy, PVD-coated carbide

SNMG 150616 AH6225 is an ISO-format, square turning insert designed for external and internal turning in demanding, variable conditions

• PVD-coated carbide AH6225 for rostfrei applications
• Universal grade optimised for stainless steels
• Double-sided chipbreaker for reliable chip control
• Square 90° geometry, 1.6 mm corner radius

Precision and productivity for stainless-steel turning

The SNMG 150616 AH6225 insert combines a PVD-coated surface treatment with a wear-resistant carbide body to deliver steady performance in medium cutting operations on stainless steels. The PVD layer reduces flank wear and improves thermal stability, which directly increases tool life and process reliability. The square geometry with a 90° approach angle provides a robust cutting edge for shoulders and facing, while the 1.6 mm corner radius balances strength and surface finish. This technical setup translates into consistent part quality and reduced downtime during batch production.

Reliable chip control and holder compatibility for stable production

Equipped with a double-sided chipbreaker and a cylindrical locating hole, the insert offers predictable chip formation across varying feeds and depths of cut. The cylindrical hole and ISO form ensure secure seating in standard insert holders, reducing setup time and minimising clamping-related vibration. For operations that alternate between roughing and finishing, selecting the AH6225 grade means a sharp, stable cutting edge that tolerates variable conditions without excessive regrinding, helping to maintain throughput and lower overall tooling costs.

Application guidance and technical clarity for process planning

The PVD-coated grade AH6225 is intended as a universal solution for turning tasks where stainless steels are predominant; it is suitable for both external and internal turning applications. The insert thickness of 6.35 mm and square plate size make it compatible with common ISO insert seats, while the 0° clearance angle offers a neutral cutting geometry for general-purpose turning. For process engineers unfamiliar with indexable tooling, PVD coating refers to a thin, hard layer deposited by physical vapour deposition, which enhances wear resistance without compromising toughness — a practical compromise between coating durability and edge integrity.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The SNMG 150616 AH6225 insert is optimised for machining stainless steels; the AH6225 PVD-coated carbide grade provides a balanced edge for medium machining and variable conditions.

Is the insert reversible or single-use?
This SNMG-format indexable plate is double-sided, allowing rotation to a fresh cutting edge and extending usable life before replacement.

Which holder types are compatible with this ISO insert?
Compatibility is determined by ISO form, size, thickness and hole style; the SNMG 150616 fits standard square ISO holders with a cylindrical locating pin and matching seat dimensions.

How does the PVD coating affect performance?
The PVD coating on the AH6225 grade increases wear resistance and thermal stability, resulting in longer edge life and improved consistency when turning rostfrei materials.

What cutting edge radius and geometry should be selected for finishing passes?
The 1.6 mm corner radius provides a compromise between strength and surface finish; for finer finishing, consider smaller radii where the holder and grade allow.
