TNMG160408 AH6225 — Indexable insert for Turning by Tungaloy

TNMG160408 AH6225 is an ISO‑standard indexable insert for external and internal turning, engineered for medium cutting conditions and universal use on stainless steels

• ISO-standard triangular insert 60°
• PVD-coated AH6225 carbide for stainless steel
• Double-sided design with cylindrical hole
• Corner radius 0.8 mm for improved finish

Consistent cutting performance for stainless steels

The AH6225 grade is a PVD-coated carbide designed as a universal solution for machining stainless steels under changing conditions. The coating increases wear resistance and heat tolerance, while the substrate maintains toughness for interrupted cuts. This balance results in a sharp and stable cutting edge, which supports steady tool life and predictable tool-change intervals. When matched with the appropriate chipbreaker and cutting data, the result is reduced rework and improved process reliability, making the insert a pragmatic choice for medium turning tasks where repeatable surface quality matters.

Secure mounting and ISO compatibility for flexible use

As an ISO‑standard triangular insert with a 60° included angle and a cylindrical hole, the component fits a wide range of holders when form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening and thickness are compatible. The double-sided design provides two usable cutting edges, lowering per-edge cost and permitting quick index changes. The corner radius 0.8 mm helps achieve finer surface finishes at moderate feeds and supports dimensional stability where profile accuracy is required. Compatibility depends on holder specifications, so confirm form and mounting details before installation to ensure optimal clamping and repeatability with the chosen holder.

Productive, economical turning through grade and geometry

The combination of PVD coating, a robust carbide substrate and the insert’s geometry delivers productive machining with reduced downtime. The double-sided, triangular format simplifies inventory management by using a widely available ISO type that is easy to replace. Selecting the right chipbreaker and the AH6225 grade according to workpiece material and machining stability allows efficient material removal while protecting the cutting edge.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The insert is optimised for stainless steels; the AH6225 PVD-coated carbide offers good wear resistance and a stable cutting edge for typical stainless‑steel turning tasks.

How does the double-sided design affect cost and uptime?
A double-sided triangular insert provides two usable cutting edges, which lowers the cost per edge and shortens machine downtime for indices and replacements.

Which holders are compatible with this ISO insert?
Compatibility requires matching the insert form, relief angle (0°), tolerance class, fastening method, size (16 mm) and thickness (4.76 mm) to the holder; confirm these parameters before fitting.

What surface finish can be expected with a 0.8 mm corner radius?
A 0.8 mm corner radius supports finer surface finishes at moderate feed rates and helps maintain profile accuracy when cutting under stable conditions.
