VBGT-AK 35° Rhombic Turning Insert with AK Chipbreaker for Precision Ground Edges and Mirror Surface Finish
VBGT-AK is a 35° rhombic cemented carbide finishing insert designed for external turning, facing, profiling, and internal finishing operations. The AK suffix indicates a specialized finishing chipbreaker. Its small nose angle enables form turning of complex profiles, small-radius arcs, and narrow grooves. The sharp cutting edge reduces cutting force and surface roughness, while the optimized AK chipbreaker creates stable short curled chips at light cuts and low feeds to prevent chip entanglement.
This insert is particularly suitable for finishing carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel. Featuring precision ground edges and various nose radii, it is manufactured from coated cemented carbide for enhanced wear and chipping resistance. Ideal for continuous CNC finishing operations, it delivers high dimensional accuracy and mirror surface finishes.
