TNMG160408 AH8015 Tungaloy — Turning insert, PVD-coated carbide, 0.8 mm radius

A TNMG160408 AH8015 Tungaloy indexable insert engineered for reliable external and internal turning of heat‑resistant alloys and general turning applications.

• ISO-compliant triangular insert design
• PVD-coated carbide AH8015 grade
• 0.8 mm corner radius for robust edges
• Double-sided with cylindrical mounting hole

Consistent performance for heat‑resistant alloys

The combination of a PVD‑coated surface and the AH8015 cutting grade provides a balance between wear resistance and edge stability, which is particularly important when machining heat‑resistant alloys. The cemented carbide substrate ensures thermal resilience while the coating lowers adhesive wear, so the insert maintains cutting geometry longer and supports predictable tool life. This leads to fewer tool changes and more stable component quality during serial production.

Built for straightforward mounting and ISO compatibility

The insert follows the ISO indexable insert system with a triangular form and a 16 mm size, enabling compatibility with a wide range of standard external holders and boring bars. The cylindrical mounting hole and double‑sided design allow quick indexation and economical use of the cutting edges. Key dimensions such as 4.76 mm thickness and a 60° included angle, together with a 0° relief angle, determine fit and clamping; holders should be selected to match form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening and thickness for secure seating and vibration control.

Productivity advantages and reliable chip control

A 0.8 mm corner radius supports a robust cutting edge that withstands intermittent cuts and variances in workpiece stability, while the double‑sided chipbreaker design promotes controlled chip formation for safer turning cycles. The balanced combination of coating and substrate reduces flank wear and preserves surface finish, contributing to efficient, repeatable machining. Choosing the correct chipbreaker and grade for the specific material and operation helps to optimise cycle times and reduce downtime.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The TNMG160408 AH8015 insert is intended primarily for the general machining of heat‑resistant alloys, offering a balance of wear resistance and edge stability suitable for such materials.

Can the insert be used for both external and internal turning?
Yes, the TNMG160408 AH8015 Tungaloy indexable insert is designed for both external and internal turning when paired with the appropriate ISO‑compatible holder or boring bar.

How should the holder be selected for this insert?
Select a holder that matches the triangular form, 60° included angle, plate size and thickness, and that provides the correct clamping method for secure seating and vibration dampening.

What benefit does the 0.8 mm corner radius provide?
A 0.8 mm corner radius gives a robust cutting edge that tolerates interrupted cuts and improves edge life, aiding consistent surface finish and reduced tool changes.

Is the grade AH8015 coated and what does that mean?
Yes, AH8015 is a PVD‑coated cemented carbide grade; the coating enhances wear resistance and reduces adhesion, which helps maintain cutting performance on demanding alloys.
