VCMT 110302 AH6235 VCMT turning insert by Tungaloy — PVD-coated carbide, PS chipbreaker, 0.2 mm radius

VCMT110302-PS AH6235 is an ISO-format rhombic turning insert designed for external and internal turning applications where toughness and controlled chip formation are required

• PVD-coated carbide grade AH6235 for toughness and life
• Optimised PS chipbreaker for controlled chips
• Rhombic ISO 11 format, 0.2 mm corner radius
• Cylindrical hole with single-sided countersink 40°–60°

Higher productivity when machining stainless steels

The combination of a PVD-coated, wear-resistant surface and a tougher carbide substrate provides improved cutting-edge stability in the machining of stainless steel. The selected grade reduces the risk of edge chipping during interrupted cuts and under higher mechanical loads, which translates into fewer tool changes and more consistent cycle times. For production environments where reproducible component quality matters, the enhanced toughness supports longer insert life and steadier process output.

Consistent chip control for safer, cleaner turning

Equipped with the PS chipbreaker, the insert promotes short, broken chips under typical turning parameters, reducing the chance of entanglement and improving swarf handling. Controlled chip formation contributes directly to surface quality and repeatable part finish, while lowering the risk of built-up edge on stainless materials. Process reliability is therefore improved, particularly in mixed-batch or semi-finished production where stable chip evacuation is essential.

Fast set-up and assured compatibility with ISO systems

The insert follows ISO geometry in a rhombic 11 format with an inscribed circle of 11 mm, a 0.2 mm corner radius and a plate thickness of 3.18 mm; mounting is via a cylindrical hole with single-sided countersink (40°–60°). Compatibility with a holder is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness — matching these parameters ensures secure clamping and repeatable seating. Specifying the correct clamping components and replacement screws reduces downtime and supports stable cutting conditions.

Practical guidance for efficient turning operations

For external and internal turning, select a robust holder and set feeds and speeds to account for the tougher grade and the workpiece material. The 7° clearance and the insert geometry favour reliable engagement in unstable cuts; the combination of grade and chipformer makes this insert suitable for interrupted cuts and operations with heightened breakout risk. The VCMT110302-PS AH6235 insert is therefore well suited to shops seeking predictable tool behaviour and reduced scrap rates when processing challenging stainless alloys.

FAQ

What materials is the VCMT110302-PS AH6235 best suited for?
The VCMT110302-PS AH6235 is optimised for stainless steel and applications with interrupted cuts or higher breakout risk; the AH6235 grade offers enhanced toughness for these conditions.

How does the PS chipbreaker affect machining performance?
The PS chipbreaker on the VCMT110302-PS AH6235 produces short, controlled chips to improve swarf evacuation, enhance surface finish and reduce built-up edge on difficult-to-machine alloys.

Which holder parameters must be matched to ensure compatibility?
Compatibility requires matching form, clearance angle (7°), tolerance class, fixing method, plate size (11 mm) and thickness (3.18 mm) to the holder specified for ISO rhombic inserts.

Is the coating type specified for this insert and what is its benefit?
The insert uses a PVD coating, providing improved wear resistance and thermal stability that supports longer cutting life in demanding stainless-steel operations.

Can this insert handle interrupted cuts and unstable engagements?
Yes — the AH6235 grade combined with the PS chipbreaker and the 0.2 mm corner radius offers improved edge stability for interrupted cuts and situations with elevated breakout potential.
