VNMG160408 Rough Processing SS 304 316 Cnc Indexable Cutting Tool Tungsten Carbide Inserts for Turning Metal Engineering Part

Product overview

Core functionalities

Applicable scenarios

Unique advantages

  • Material Processing: Designed for rough and finish turning of stainless steels (e.g., SS 304/316) and other tough metals using CNC lathe machines.
  • Durability & Performance: High-grade tungsten carbide construction with PVD coating ensures exceptional wear resistance, edge retention, and reduced friction during machining.

Key features

  • 1. Material Technology

  • With high-grade tungsten carbide and PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coating, you can achieve 20% longer tool life compared to uncoated inserts*. The corrosion-resistant carbide body ensures durability in harsh machining environments, while the PVD coating reduces friction and wear during prolonged use.

  • 2. Interactive Design

  • With a diamond-shaped geometry and central mounting hole, you can ensure stable chip evacuation and minimize breakage risks versus conventional inserts*. The hexagonal base design allows secure clamping on CNC lathe tool holders, enabling precise alignment during high-speed operations.

  • 3. Performance Parameters

  • With capability to machine stainless steels like SS 304/316, you can maintain consistent cutting performance at speeds up to 25% faster than standard carbide inserts*. The VNMG160408 profile ensures compatibility with tough materials, balancing cutting speed and tool longevity for both roughing and finishing tasks.

  • 4. Scenario Solutions

  • With multi-operation versatility, you can streamline workflows by using the same insert for roughing and finishing cuts, reducing downtime compared to multi-tool setups*. The blue-tray packaging (10 inserts per tray) simplifies organization and storage in industrial or commercial machining environments.

  • 5. Certification Standards

  • With VNMG160408 standard compliance, you can ensure seamless compatibility with industry-standard tool holders, enhancing interchangeability versus non-compliant inserts*. The PVD coating meets ISO 3687:2010 standards for cutting tool coatings, ensuring reliability in precision engineering applications.
