WNMG080412-TS AH8015 – Trigon ISO turning insert by Tungaloy for general turning

The WNMG080412-TS AH8015 is an ISO-standard trigon turning insert designed for external and internal turning of heat-resistant alloys and general turning applications.

• PVD-coated carbide AH8015
• ISO WNMG trigon form
• Optimised for heat-resistant alloys
• 80° cutting geometry, 1.2 mm radius

Consistent ISO compatibility for efficient tool management

The insert follows ISO-standard geometry, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of commercially available WNMG holders. Compatibility is determined by form, rake angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness, which simplifies tool inventory and reduces setup time on CNC lathes. Standardisation allows quick replacement and minimises machine downtime, supporting predictable process planning and consistent part quality across batches.

Balanced PVD-coated grade for heat-resistant alloys

The grade AH8015 is a PVD-coated cemented carbide developed as a first choice for the general machining of heat-resistant alloys. The coating increases wear resistance while the substrate maintains edge stability, offering an effective compromise between tool life and cutting performance. For production shops that face mixed material runs, this balance reduces the need for frequent grade changes and contributes to steady productivity.

Trigon geometry and edge form for robust turning

The trigon plate shape delivers a stable clamping platform and a larger cutting wedge for sturdy cutting conditions. With an effective nose radius of 1.2 mm and an 80° main cutting angle, the geometry suits a range of operations from light finishing to medium-duty turning when combined with appropriate feeds and speeds. The insert has a TS chipbreaker to aid chip control and a cylindrical hole for secure fastening; the plate thickness of 4.76 mm enhances rigidity under load and supports repeatable dimensional results.

Integration into productive machining systems

The insert is intended to be used as part of a system comprising a matching external holder or boring bar, a shim/clamp set and replacement screws. Selecting the correct chipbreaker and grade for the specific workpiece material and stability conditions is crucial for maximising tool life and surface finish. For CNC turning shops and jobbing operations seeking reliable, easy-to-source inserts, this configuration supports efficient replenishment, predictable change intervals and reduced scrap rates.
