Mitsubishi VNMG160402-FH NX2525

Cut faster, last longer: slash your cost per component with the VNMG160402-FH NX2525 — engineered for maximum durability, surface finish quality and processing stability.

• Geometry & Breaker: VNMG 35° rhombic insert, “FH” chipbreaker for finishing/near-finish cuts, stable chip control even in light interrupted cuts. 

• Inscribed Circle (IC): 9.525 mm (0.375 in)
  
  
  Thickness (S): 4.76 mm 

• Corner Radius (RE): 0.2 mm 

• Functional Length (L): ~16.61 mm 

• Grade / Material: NX2525, a cermet grade from Mitsubishi (for steel, stainless, cast iron) — known for combining wear resistance and toughness.

• Cutting Application: Optimized for turning / finishing cuts / near-finish passes on steels, stainless steels, and cast iron. 

• Speed / Feed Guidance: For steels up to ~180–280 HB, use surface speeds ~590 SFM (approx 425–720 SFM range) and feed ~0.008 in/tooth (0.2 mm/rev range) in finishing

• Less downtime — thanks to high wear resistance of NX2525, you change inserts less often, reducing stops.

• Superior surface finish — the FH chipbreaker plus cermet edge behavior gives smoother finishes, particularly on steels and stainless, reducing polishing or secondary operations.

• Stable cutting even on challenging cuts — microstructure of NX2525 includes hardened Ti compound particles, improving resistance to crater wear and edge degradation. 

• Good for finishing regimes — it excels in light depth cuts, maintaining edge integrity under low forces.

• Versatility — one insert handles multiple materials (steels, cast iron, some stainless) so you stock fewer grades.

This insert is ideal for sectors like:

• Automotive (gear, shaft, housing turning)

• Aerospace (component finishing)

• Die & Mold (steel and mold core turning)

• General Engineering (shafts, spindles, pins, bearing housings)

• Machinery manufacturing
