TNMG 160412 AH8015 indexable turning insert for turning – PVD-coated carbide, 60° geometry (Tungaloy)

The TNMG 160412 AH8015 is a triangular ISO indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, optimised for machining heat‑resistant alloys and general turning tasks.

• PVD-coated grade AH8015
• 60° triangular geometry
• 1.2 mm corner radius for robust cuts
• Double-sided chipbreaker, cylindrical hole

High-performance wear resistance for demanding materials

The TNMG 160412 AH8015 combines a PVD-coated carbide substrate with a grade engineered to balance wear resistance and edge stability, making it particularly effective when machining heat‑resistant alloys. The coating reduces flank wear under elevated temperatures, extending the effective life of the insert and lowering tooling costs per component. In production terms, this translates into longer uninterrupted runs and fewer changeovers, which supports improved machine utilisation and predictable process planning.

Reliable chip control and repeatable edge life

Built with a double-sided chipbreaker and a cylindrical centre hole for secure clamping, the insert offers consistent chip formation across a range of feeds and depths of cut. The 60° triangular geometry together with the 1.2 mm corner radius provides a sturdy cutting edge that resists chipping during intermittent cuts, delivering repeatable surface finish and dimensional stability. Selecting the chipbreaker and grade to suit the workpiece material ensures efficient evacuation and reduces the risk of built-up edge, benefiting both cycle time and final part quality.

Practical compatibility and straightforward integration

Supplied as part of the ISO turning insert system, the plate’s compatibility with a holder is determined by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; this supports flexible use with standard external holders, boring bars and required underlays or clamping kits. The 0° relief angle and 4.76 mm thickness contribute to a rigid clamping setup, while the ISO designation simplifies ordering and inventory control across multiple tool types. For workshop planning, the combination of recognised ISO format and a widely used PVD carbide grade reduces setup complexity and eases logistics.

FAQ

What materials is the insert suitable for?
The TNMG 160412 AH8015 insert is intended primarily for heat‑resistant alloys and general turning tasks where a balance between wear resistance and edge stability is required.

How does the AH8015 grade affect tool life?
The AH8015 PVD coating increases wear resistance at elevated temperatures, providing longer tool life and more consistent cutting-edge behaviour in demanding turning operations.

Is the triangle insert reversible or single-use per edge?
The triangular plate is double-sided, offering multiple usable cutting edges to extend effective tool life and reduce tooling costs.

Which holders are compatible with this ISO insert?
Compatibility depends on holder form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; Metav Werkzeuge can advise on the correct external holder or boring bar for the TNMG 160412 AH8015.
