CPMT 060204 AH6235 Tungaloy ISO turning insert — PVD-coated carbide, 80° rhombic

A CPMT 060204 AH6235 turning insert engineered for external and internal turning, optimised for stainless steel and operations with elevated breakout risk

• PVD-coated carbide grade AH6235
• For stainless steel and interrupted cuts
• Rhombic insert, 80° cutting angle
• Single-sided chipbreaker, 0.4 mm corner radius

Consistent cutting performance for demanding stainless steel applications

The CPMT 060204 AH6235 insert combines a PVD-coated carbide substrate with a tougher, breakout-resistant grade to deliver steady cutting in work on stainless steel and similar alloys. The 80° rhombic geometry provides a robust cutting edge that tolerates variations in engagement, while the 0.4 mm corner radius balances edge strength with surface finish. This configuration reduces the likelihood of premature edge failure during interrupted cuts, so cycle times remain predictable and scrap is minimised. Where chatter or instability is a concern, the rhombic form and compact corner radius help maintain a controlled chip flow and consistent tool life.

Simple clamping and ISO compatibility to reduce setup uncertainty

Designed as an ISO-standard insert, compatibility with holders is determined by form, 11° relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and 2.38 mm thickness. The insert is supplied with a cylindrical hole and a one-sided countersink (40°–60°), ensuring secure seating and repeatable positioning in compatible external holders or boring bars. The overall system comprises the insert, a matching external holder or boring bar, a shim/clamp set and replacement screws; this common architecture simplifies procurement and reduces spare-part complexity on the shop floor. Clear knowledge of holder geometry and fastening style avoids misfits and accelerates changeovers.

Productivity gains and practical application guidance

The single-sided chipbreaker is tuned for general turning duties and interrupted operations, enabling stable chip control across a range of cutting parameters. Selecting the right chipbreaker and cutting data for the chosen grade will usually result in longer tool life and fewer unplanned stops, directly supporting higher throughput. For best results, pair the insert with a rigid setup, adjust feeds to the chosen corner radius, and favour coolant or minimum-quantity lubrication where thermal softening is an issue. The tougher grade helps absorb peak loads, offering a practical balance between economy and performance while delivering repeatable surface quality.

FAQ

What materials is this insert designed for?
The CPMT 060204 AH6235 insert is optimised for stainless steel and is suitable for interrupted cuts and applications with a higher risk of breakout.

How does the AH6235 grade improve performance?
AH6235 is a tougher PVD-coated carbide grade that increases resistance to chipping and improves tool life in demanding turning operations, particularly on stainless steel.

Which holders fit this ISO insert?
Compatibility depends on holder form, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; the insert’s cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°) ensures secure mounting in matching ISO external holders or boring bars.

What cutting geometry should be used with the 0.4 mm radius?
For the 0.4 mm corner radius, moderate feeds and rigid clamping yield the best balance between surface finish and edge life; the single-sided chipbreaker supports stable chip control under these conditions.

Can this insert be used for internal turning?
Yes, the CPMT 060204 AH6235 is suitable for both external and internal turning when paired with the appropriate boring bar and correct clamping components.
