VBMT110302-PS AH6235 ISO turning insert (rhombic, 35°) — Tungaloy

The VBMT110302-PS AH6235 is an ISO‑standard rhombic turning insert for external and internal turning, designed for robust performance in stainless steels and interrupted cutting conditions.

• ISO rhombic insert VBMT110302-PS
• PVD-coated carbide, AH6235 grade
• Optimised for stainless steel and interrupted cuts
• 0.2 mm corner radius for fine finishing

Consistent cutting with a tough PVD‑coated carbide grade

The combination of a PVD‑coated carbide substrate and the AH6235 grade gives a balanced mix of toughness and wear resistance that is especially useful when machining stainless steels or when facing interrupted cuts. The coating reduces friction and heat at the cutting edge, which helps to extend insert life and preserve edge integrity under unstable cutting conditions. For production environments where chip‑out or edge chipping is a recurrent issue, the tougher substrate reduces tool changes and supports a steadier process.

Geometry and ISO compatibility for secure clamping and repeatability

Built to ISO dimensions, the insert’s rhombic shape, 35° approach angle and 5° clearance angle ensure predictable cutting kinematics and compatibility with a wide range of holders. The insert thickness of 3.18 mm, plate size 11, and the cylindrical hole with a one‑sided countersink (40°–60°) provide secure mounting and repeatable seating in the toolholder. This standardisation simplifies tool inventory and enables fast replacement without readjustment, supporting higher machine uptime and consistent part quality.

Chip control and productivity with the PS chipbreaker

The PS chipbreaker is designed to produce controlled chip formation in demanding materials and intermittent cuts, improving swarf evacuation and reducing the risk of entanglement. A 0.2 mm corner radius contributes to a fine surface finish while offering edge strength where needed. Selecting the correct chipbreaker and the AH6235 grade according to workpiece material, depth of cut and machine stability will directly impact cycle times and overall cost per part, making the insert a practical choice for productive turning operations.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The insert is intended for stainless steels and similar alloys; the AH6235 grade and PS chipbreaker improve performance in interrupted cuts and materials prone to work hardening.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, the insert follows ISO dimensions and is compatible with holders that match the form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness.

What does the AH6235 grade offer compared with general grades?
AH6235 is a tougher, PVD‑coated carbide grade formulated for reduced chipping in interrupted cuts and enhanced edge stability during stainless steel turning.

How does the PS chipbreaker affect machining?
The PS chipbreaker produces shorter, controlled chips to aid swarf evacuation and lower the risk of chip entanglement, which supports safer and more reliable turning operations.

Which cutting data should be used as a starting point?
Start with conservative cutting speeds and feeds appropriate for stainless steel and progressively increase while monitoring tool wear; consult Metav Werkzeuge for application‑specific parameters.
