CNMG120408AH PDL010 (TLK04421)
The CNMG120408AH PDL010 is a high-performance indexable turning insert designed for high-speed turning of aluminium alloys and non-ferrous materials. Like its 0.4mm nose radius counterpart, this insert features the striking iridescent rainbow DLC (diamond-like carbon) PVD coating of the PDL010 grade, providing exceptional hardness, near-zero friction, and complete resistance to aluminium adhesion and built-up edge. The larger 0.8mm nose radius makes this variant ideal for higher feed rates and heavier semi-finishing passes in aluminium.
Key Features
- Insert shape: C (80° diamond) — 2 cutting edges per insert
- Size: 12mm x 04mm thickness x 08 nose radius (0.8mm) — larger nose radius for higher feeds and improved surface finish at depth
- Chipbreaker: AH — sharp, open geometry for aluminium and non-ferrous, low cutting forces and excellent chip evacuation
- Grade: PDL010 (DLC / diamond-like PVD coating) — ultra-hard, anti-adhesion coating specifically for aluminium and non-ferrous metals
- ISO application: N05–N20
- Edges: 2 cutting edges
Applications
High-speed semi-finishing and finishing of aluminium alloys, copper, brass, and other non-ferrous materials. The 0.8mm nose radius suits higher feed rates and heavier passes compared to the 0.4mm variant. Compatible with CNMG-style toolholders. Available in packs of 10.
