WNGU 060316 AH725 indexable insert for milling – Tungaloy

A WNGU060316 AH725 indexable insert tailored for Tungaloy milling systems, designed for face, shoulder, slot and high-feed milling when used with matching cutter bodies.

• Trigon insert, 06 size, 80° cutting angle
• PVD-coated AH725 carbide grade
• 1.6 mm corner radius for robust finishes
• Cylindrical hole with double-sided countersink

Reliable process security and broad material range

The PVD-coated carbide of the AH725 grade is engineered for high process security when machining steel and stainless steels, combining wear resistance with stable chip formation. This grade is particularly suitable for mixed-material production or small-diameter cutters where consistent edge behaviour matters. The coating reduces built-up edge and enhances tool life under varying cutting conditions, delivering predictable productivity and fewer unplanned tool changes.

Geometry that ensures repeatable accuracy and surface quality

The trigon insert geometry with an 80° cutting angle and a corner radius 1.6 mm supports robust engagement and improved surface finish in shoulder and face milling. The double-sided chipbreaker clears chips reliably and helps maintain cutting forces within optimal limits, which in turn reduces vibration and improves repeatability. A plate thickness of 3.18 mm and the central hole with a cylindrical bore plus double-sided countersink provide stable clamping and accurate seating in compatible cutter bodies.

System compatibility and economical handling

As part of a Tungaloy system, this indexable cut-off integrates with matching milling bodies, clamping screws and optional shim plates to form a complete cutting assembly. Correct pairing of insert seat, geometry and cutter body is essential for safe operation and peak performance. The insert’s reversible design and standardised size reduce inventory costs and allow quick index changes, supporting efficient shop-floor routines and lower overall machining cost per component. SKU TUN6987243 identifies the original production item for ordering and traceability.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The WNGU060316 AH725 insert is specified for machining steel and stainless steels; the AH725 PVD-coated carbide ensures stable chip formation across those materials.

How is the insert secured in the cutter body?
The plate is retained using the central hole design—cylindrical bore with a double-sided countersink—ensuring precise seating and secure clamping when matched with the correct cutter body and clamping screw.

What does the double-sided chipbreaker provide?
The double-sided chipbreaker on this indexable insert manages chip flow and cutting forces, improving surface quality and reducing the likelihood of built-up edge during continuous milling operations.

Which dimensions define this insert for replacement or inventory?
Key dimensions are size 06, plate thickness 3.18 mm and corner radius 1.6 mm; the ISO designation is 060316 and the manufacturer article number is 6987243.

Is the insert reversible and compatible with Tungaloy systems?
Yes, the insert is double-sided and designed for use within Tungaloy milling systems; correct matching of insert seat, geometry and cutter body is required for optimal performance.
