DNMG 150404 AH8015 Tungaloy turning insert — ISO rhombic 55°

DNMG150404 AH8015 Tungaloy-Wendeplatte is an ISO-standard indexable insert for general turning, designed for external and internal operations on heat-resistant alloys and a broad range of materials

• PVD-coated carbide grade AH8015
• ISO rhombic 55° geometry
• Double-sided chipbreaker for chip control

Greater tool life through balanced PVD-coated carbide

The PVD-coated AH8015 grade combines carbide substrate strength with a thin, hard PVD coating to extend cutting edge life when machining heat-resistant alloys. This configuration is selected for its balance between wear resistance and edge stability, so fewer index changes are needed and process interruptions are reduced. The coating reduces adhesive wear at elevated temperatures, while the substrate maintains toughness during intermittent cuts, delivering a cost-effective solution for routine and continuous turning tasks.

Straightforward integration into ISO tooling systems

The insert follows the ISO standard form, so compatibility with holders depends on shape, 0° clearance, tolerance class, clamping and thickness. The rhombic 55° geometry offers versatility for both facing and turning, and the cylindrical hole ensures secure mounting with conventional clamp systems. When selecting a matching holder, check form, tolerance and mounting screw/seat to guarantee repeatable positioning and safe chip evacuation. Clear identification of these parameters supports predictable set-up times and reduced downtime.

Stable machining and predictable surface results

A corner radius 0.4 mm provides a compromise between strength and surface finish: it helps to dampen edge chipping while enabling good finish in finishing and light roughing passes. The 4.76 mm plate thickness increases rigidity in the pocket and helps maintain consistent cutting conditions under moderate cutting forces. The double-sided chipbreaker improves chip control across a range of feeds, aiding both productivity and shop-floor safety by preventing tangled or long chips during turning operations.

Simple cost management and operational benefits

Being double-sided and ISO interchangeable, this indexable insert offers two usable edges per face, reducing unit cost per edge and simplifying inventory management. The geometry and coating make it suitable as a first-choice insert for general turning of heat-resistant materials, where reliable tool life and repeatable performance matter most. Clear labelling and ISO conformity also aid traceability and reordering within a production environment.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for? The DNMG150404 AH8015 Tungaloy insert is designed primarily for heat-resistant alloys and provides balanced wear resistance and edge stability for a range of steels and alloyed materials.

How is the insert mounted in a holder? Mounting requires a compatible ISO turning holder that matches the DNMG form, 0° clearance and plate thickness; the cylindrical hole is secured with the appropriate clamp and screw for repeatable positioning.

How many usable edges does the insert provide? The insert is double-sided and indexable; by rotating and indexing the plate, multiple cutting edges are available, which lowers cost per edge and simplifies inventory.

Does the PVD coating improve performance at high temperatures? Yes, the PVD coating on the AH8015 grade improves resistance to adhesive and thermal wear, helping to maintain tool life during elevated-temperature cutting typical of heat-resistant alloys.

Which features influence compatibility with existing tool systems? Compatibility depends on plate form, tolerance class, free angle (clearance), size (15 mm), thickness (4.76 mm) and the hole and clamping method; verifying these parameters ensures secure fit and repeatability.
