VBMT110304-TM AH6225 — ISO indexable turning insert for Drehen by Tungaloy, PVD-coated carbide, 35°

The VBMT110304-TM AH6225 is an ISO indexable turning insert engineered for external and internal turning, delivering a sharp yet stable cutting edge suited to machining stainless steel under variable conditions.

• PVD-coated carbide for stainless steel
• ISO VBMT 110304 geometry, 35° approach
• 0.4 mm corner radius for versatile finishing
• Compatible with standard ISO holders

Consistent cutting performance for stainless steel

The combination of a PVD-coated carbide substrate and the AH6225 grade provides a balanced mix of edge sharpness and wear resistance, specifically optimised for stainless steel. The coating reduces built-up edge tendency and extends usable life under changing feeds and depths of cut. The TM chipbreaker promotes controlled chip shape during medium-duty turning, reducing the need for frequent manual intervention. Explained simply: the coating protects the cutting edge while the chipbreaker shapes chips, together improving cycle stability and reducing scrap rates.

Geometry and mechanical compatibility that keep production flowing

The rhombic ISO VBMT110304 geometry with a 35° approach angle and 5° clearance facilitates versatile toolpath planning and predictable force vectors during cutting. The 0.4 mm radius allows a compromise between surface finish and corner strength, making the insert suitable for both light finishing and modest material removal. Compatibility is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening and plate thickness; the insert fits established ISO holders and clamping systems, enabling straightforward retrofitting into existing tool assemblies and minimising downtime.

Practical benefits on the shop floor and for process planning

As a universal grade for stainless steel, this indexable insert reduces complexity in tool inventories and supports stable chip formation across varying conditions. The PVD-coated carbide surface increases resistance to adhesive wear commonly encountered when machining stainless steel, which in turn supports longer tool life and fewer interruptions. For engineers and operators, the clear ISO designation and defined hole/countersink style simplify procurement and spare-part management, making batch planning and just-in-time replenishment more reliable.
