WNMG 080404 AH8015 ISO turning insert WNMG 080404 for Drehen by Tungaloy

A WNMG080404‑ZM AH8015 insert designed for ISO‑standard external and internal turning, optimised for heat‑resistant alloys and general turning operations.

• ISO‑standard trigon insert, size 08
• PVD‑coated carbide AH8015 for heat‑resistant alloys
• 0.4 mm corner radius for versatile finishes
• Cylindrical hole and 80° geometry for secure clamping

Consistent cutting performance with PVD‑coated carbide

The PVD‑coated carbide AH8015 grade offers a balanced mix of wear resistance and cutting‑edge stability, making it a dependable choice for machining heat‑resistant alloys. This combination reduces flank and crater wear under higher temperatures, which translates into longer insert life and fewer tool changes. For production environments this means improved process stability and predictable machining windows, supporting efficient cycle times without sacrificing surface quality.

ISO compatibility reduces setup risk and simplifies inventory

Supplied in the ISO‑standard WNMG format, the insert follows established dimensional and tolerance rules so that holder compatibility is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixation and thickness. Using standardised inserts minimises setup errors and simplifies tooling logistics on the shop floor. The result is easier changeovers, faster machine availability and reduced risk of incompatible combinations that could cause poor machining results.

Geometry engineered for precision and secure clamping

The trigon form with an 0.4 mm corner radius provides a practical balance between strength and finish quality, delivering controlled cutting contact and consistent surface results. With 0° clearance, an 80° angle and a cylindrical hole, the insert offers secure clamping behaviour that limits vibration and chatter during turning. Stable clamping improves repeatability and yields better concentricity on turned parts, particularly for medium‑ and light‑duty finishing passes.

Practical advantages for production and process reliability

Designed for general turning (Drehen), the insert supports a wide range of applications where a robust, economical cutting solution is required. The PVD layer combined with a engineered carbide substrate contributes to predictable tool life and cost‑effective batch processing. Backed by Tungaloy manufacturing know‑how, the grade aims to deliver productive machining with consistent results, helping to keep throughput steady while maintaining component quality.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The WNMG080404‑ZM AH8015 insert is primarily specified for heat‑resistant alloys and general steel turning; the PVD‑coated AH8015 grade balances wear resistance and edge stability for these materials.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes. The insert conforms to ISO dimensions and mounting conventions, so compatibility with a holder depends on matching form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixation, size and thickness.

How does the 0.4 mm corner radius affect the finish?
A 0.4 mm corner radius provides a compromise between strength and surface quality—offering smoother finishes than a larger radius while maintaining adequate edge robustness for consistent results.

What does the ZM chipbreaker mean for chip control?
The ZM chipbreaker is designed to control chips according to workpiece material and cutting conditions; selecting the correct chipbreaker helps maintain efficient chip evacuation and protects the cutting edge.

Can this insert be used for internal turning as well as external turning?
Yes. The trigon geometry and ISO form allow use in both external and internal turning operations, provided a suitable holder is selected that accommodates the insert dimensions.
