ADHT1606PER-G88 WXN15 milling indexable insert — Parallelogram 85°, 15° clearance by Walter Tools

The ADHT1606PER-G88 WXN15 is a parallelogram milling insert engineered for efficient, sharp cutting of non‑ferrous metals such as aluminium, copper and brass in light to medium milling operations.

• Sharp uncoated carbide grade WXN15
• Optimised G88 chipbreaker for non‑ferrous metals
• Parallelogram 85° form with 15° clearance
• Size 16, thickness 06 for stable seating

Precision cutting for non‑ferrous materials that reduces rework

The insert’s WXN15 composition is an uncoated carbide grade developed for applications in the non‑ferrous group. Its sharp cutting edge reduces material adhesion and built‑up edge, which helps to maintain a consistent cutting profile when machining aluminium, copper or brass. The result is fewer interruptions for edge dressing and less downstream finishing, which translates directly into improved process efficiency and reduced scrap rates. The G88 chipbreaker works in concert with the cutting geometry to break chips reliably and guide them away from the cutting zone, improving surface quality while protecting the tool seat from premature damage.

Geometry that supports stable clamping and consistent surface finish

The parallelogram 85° form with a 15° clearance angle ensures a secure seat in compatible tool holders and promotes stable cutting forces. This geometry reduces vibration during interrupted cuts and improves the repeatability of each indexed position. Stable seating and a predictable rake/clearance combination contribute to a more even surface finish and tighter dimensional control on the workpiece. For workshops seeking reliable, repeatable results, the insert’s form factor and precision tolerance class support predictable performance across multiple indexing cycles.

Easy integration and measurable productivity gains

Designed for the Walter N‑Sortensystem, the indexable insert format allows rapid replacement and straightforward inventory management. The combination of uncoated carbide and the G88 chipbreaker offers a cost‑effective option where sharpness and chip control are decisive, such as finishing or light roughing of non‑ferrous components. Reduced secondary operations and simpler tool handling lower labour and machine time per part. For production environments that value throughput without sacrificing part quality, this insert delivers a practical balance of economy and performance.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The ADHT1606PER-G88 WXN15 insert is specified for non‑ferrous metals (N) such as aluminium, copper and brass, following the ISO 513 guidance noted in the product data.

Is the cutting grade coated or uncoated?
The insert uses an uncoated carbide grade, WXN15, optimised for sharpness and low adhesion in NE‑metal machining.

How does the G88 chipbreaker affect performance?
The G88 chipbreaker produces short, controllable chips in non‑ferrous materials and helps to reduce surface smearing and built‑up edge, improving finish and protecting the seat.

Which tool series is this insert compatible with?
The insert is part of the Walter N‑Sortensystem series and is intended for tool holders that accept ADHT‑style indexable inserts.

What geometry features support stable cutting?
The parallelogram 85° shape combined with a 15° clearance angle provides secure seating and reduced vibration, supporting consistent surface quality and dimensional control.
