Finish sharp. Stay online longer. The Kyocera VBMT160408HQ TN60 insert brings unmatched finish quality, edge stability, and production uptime for your steel components.
The Kyocera VBMT160408HQ TN60 is a high-performance cermet turning insert designed for machinists who demand long tool life, superior wear resistance, and outstanding surface finish in precision applications.
With its 35° diamond geometry (VBMT) and HQ chip breaker, this insert provides smooth chip evacuation, stable cutting, and reduced cutting forces—ideal for external turning, facing, profiling, and light finishing.
The TN60 grade is Kyocera’s premium cermet grade, engineered with a tough TiC/TiN/TiCN/NbC composite structure. This unique composition delivers:
-
Exceptional wear resistance against abrasion and flank wear
-
High edge stability, minimizing chipping and fracture
-
Consistent mirror-like surface finish across steels and stainless steels
Unlike conventional coated carbides, TN60 excels in uncoated, high-stability finishing operations, ensuring accuracy, lower cost per component, and fewer tool changes.
Why Machinists Trust It:
Less tool swapping, cleaner parts, and longer runs—this insert solves your productivity puzzle.
