APMT1604PDER-H2 VP15TF
Reinforced Roughing Geometry | Miracle PVD Coating | APX4000 System
The Mitsubishi APMT1604PDER-H2 VP15TF is the heavy-duty workhorse of the APX4000 platform. Engineered for deep shoulder milling and high-feed roughing, the H2 chipbreaker provides a reinforced land that prevents premature edge failure under heavy chip loads. Featuring the proprietary VP15TF Miracle PVD coating, this insert excels in heat resistance and prevents built-up edge (BUE), making it highly effective for Carbon Steel, Alloy Steel, and Stainless Steel.

SHOP APX4000 HOLDERSPro-Tip: VP15TF vs F7030
VP15TF (The Specialist): Best for general steel and stainless. It offers superior wear resistance and surface finish. Choose this for 90% of your roughing tasks.
F7030 (The Tough Choice): Switch to F7030 grade if you are experiencing heavy interrupted cuts or working with scaled/cast surfaces. F7030 is tougher, while VP15TF is more wear-resistant.
