SNMG 120416 AH8015 SNMG Turning insert — PVD‑coated carbide, 90° square (Tungaloy)

A SNMG120416 AH8015 turning insert for ISO‑standard external and internal turning, optimised for the general machining of heat‑resistant alloys and designed for stable cutting performance.

• ISO‑standard SNMG geometry
• PVD‑coated carbide for wear resistance
• Double‑sided chipbreaker, economical use
• 90° square form with 1.6 mm radius

Increased process reliability for demanding materials

The PVD‑coated carbide grade offers a balanced combination of wear resistance and cutting‑edge stability, which translates into longer tool life and fewer interruptions in production. As an ISO‑conforming square insert, the plate geometry ensures predictable engagement and repeatable clearance when paired with matching holders. The 0° clearance angle and the 90° corner orientation are specified to provide robust support under radial loads; the 1.6 mm corner radius reduces notch formation and helps maintain a consistent surface finish on heat‑resistant alloys.

Efficient chip control and economical indexing

A double‑sided chipbreaker and symmetric construct permit economical use of all available edges while keeping chip formation compact and manageable. The insert is supplied with a cylindrical hole for secure fastening to a range of ISO‑compatible toolholders; compatibility is governed by form, free angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. Choosing the correct chipbreaker profile and the AH8015 grade supports stable cutting when facing or turning interrupted surfaces and contributes to reduced cycle times through reliable chip evacuation.

Practical selection and repeatable performance in production

The PVD layer on the AH8015 grade reduces built‑up edge and improves heat resistance, making this insert a practical first choice for the general machining of heat‑resistant alloys where a compromise between abrasion resistance and edge strength is required. The plate thickness of 4.76 mm and the square format deliver rigidity for both finishing and light roughing operations; indexability and straightforward re‑clamping simplify logistics on the shop floor. For matching the insert to a specific application, select the cutting geometry and holder combination that correspond to the ISO designation and the intended stock material.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The SNMG120416 AH8015 insert from Tungaloy is specified as a first choice for the general machining of heat‑resistant alloys, with a coating and grade balanced for wear resistance and edge stability.

Does the insert fit standard toolholders?
Compatibility with toolholders is determined by the SNMG form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; the SNMG120416 geometry and cylindrical hole are designed for ISO‑compatible holders and clamping sets.

How does the double‑sided design affect usage?
The double‑sided chipbreaker provides multiple indexable edges and economical reuse; the design keeps chip form compact and supports consistent performance across indexed edges.

Is the insert coated and what benefits does the coating bring?
Yes — the insert is a PVD‑coated carbide grade (AH8015); the coating improves heat resistance, reduces built‑up edge and extends tool life in demanding turning operations.

What are the key dimensional features to check before mounting?
Check the plate size of 12 mm, plate thickness of 4.76 mm, corner radius of 1.6 mm and the 90° square form to ensure correct seating and clearance in the chosen holder.
