DCMT070208 AH6235 indexable turning insert — ISO rhombic, PVD-coated carbide, Tungaloy

A DCMT070208 AH6235 indexable insert for ISO-standard turning, optimised for stainless-steel work and interrupted cuts in external and internal turning applications

• PVD-coated carbide for enhanced wear resistance
• Designed for stainless steel and interrupted cuts
• ISO rhombic DCMT 070208 with 55° cutting angle
• Central hole with cylindrical seat and 40°–60° countersink

Extended life and predictable cutting performance

The PVD-coated carbide substrate of this insert offers significantly improved wear resistance, which translates into longer tool life and fewer interruptions in production. The coating reduces built-up edge and maintains a stable cutting edge at elevated temperatures, supporting higher cutting speeds and consistent surface finish. By favouring a tougher grade and a coated surface, operators benefit from reduced consumption of inserts and more predictable machining cycles.

Reliable geometry for challenging stainless-steel conditions

The combination of a 55° approach and a reinforced edge radius 0.8 mm provides a balance between sharpness and fracture resistance, particularly useful for work-hardened or ductile materials. The AH6235 grade is specifically selected for stainless steel and applications with increased risk of edge breakouts; it aids in controlled chip formation during interrupted cuts. Compatibility follows ISO norms, so holder selection should consider form, clearance, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness to ensure secure seating and repeatable performance.

Simple integration and effective clamping for minimal setup time

Mechanical integration is straightforward: the insert features a central hole with a cylindrical seat and a single-sided countersink between 40°–60°, together with a plate thickness of 2.38 mm and a 7° relief angle, enabling stable clamping and reliable repeatability. Typical system assembly comprises the ISO-format insert, a matched external holder or boring bar, a backing plate/clamping set and replacement screws. This configuration reduces set-up effort and helps to maintain process stability across tool changes.

FAQ

Is this insert suitable for stainless-steel turning?
Yes. The AH6235 grade and the PVD-coated carbide substrate are selected for machining stainless steel, offering controlled chip formation and reduced tendency to build up on the cutting edge.

What clamping arrangement is required for secure seating?
The insert uses a central hole with a cylindrical seat plus a single-sided countersink; secure seating is achieved with the appropriate ISO-compatible holder, backing plate/clamping set and replacement screws.

How does the 0.8 mm corner radius affect performance?
An edge radius of 0.8 mm increases fracture resistance and stabilises the cutting edge, which is particularly beneficial for interrupted cuts or tougher material sections.

Which chipbreaker should be selected for a specific application?
Select the chipbreaker to match the material, machining operation and process stability; the insert is supplied with a single-sided chipbreaker suitable for many turning tasks, especially in stainless steel.

What identifiers should be quoted when ordering?
Use the designation DCMT070208 AH6235 and the article number 6903463 (Manufacturer SKU TUN6903463) to ensure the correct item is supplied.
