ABS15R Back Turning Insert Series belongs to precision ground carbide insert range, specially developed for reverse turning, back facing and internal shoulder machining operations.Different from conventional forward turning inserts, ABS15R adopts optimized reverse cutting geometry to solve machining limitations in confined inner cavities and rear shoulder features which cannot be processed by standard turning tools.
All ABS15R inserts adopt full precision grinding technology with tightly controlled dimensional tolerances and clean, consistent cutting edges. Manufactured from high-performance tungsten carbide substrate, the series delivers stable cutting performance, low vibration and excellent surface finish during continuous reverse turning.Standardized clamping profile enables straightforward assembly with matched dedicated back Turning Tool Holders.
Shenzhen Xinminghui Diamond Tools Co., Ltd. develops and manufactures a full lineup of Precision Ground Carbide Inserts, supplying standard and custom precision tooling solutions for global CNC precision machining manufacturers.
Optimized Reverse Cutting Geometry
Specially designed profile for back turning and back facing. The geometric structure avoids interference inside workpieces, allowing smooth access to rear shoulders and inner back surfaces that conventional forward inserts cannot reach.
Full Precision Ground Cutting Edges
Entire insert undergoes precision grinding process. Sharp, burr-free cutting edges ensure consistent machining quality. Tight dimensional accuracy improves repeatability during mass production.
Low Vibration & Stable Reverse Machining
Optimized tool body structure enhances rigidity during reverse cutting. Effectively suppress chatter and tool deflection, reducing chatter marks and improving the surface finish of back-facing surfaces.
High Wear Resistant Carbide Substrate
Made of high-density tungsten carbide material with balanced hardness and toughness. Extend service life under long-cycle continuous back turning operations, lowering tool change frequency.
Standard Clamping Interface
Uniform base profile compatible with supporting ABS15R dedicated back turning tool holders. Quick installation and reliable clamping, suitable for automated CNC lathes and sliding head machines.

ABS15R inserts must be matched with dedicated ABS15R back turning tool holders.
Compatible equipment: Precision CNC lathes, sliding head automatic lathes.
The matched clamping system provides firm support during reverse cutting to guarantee machining stability.



Solve Interference Problems in Reverse Machining
Exclusive back turning geometry prevents tool collision inside small inner holes, expanding the processing range of CNC lathes without secondary workpiece clamping.
Consistent Surface Quality on Back Surfaces
Stable low-vibration cutting greatly reduces surface defects on rear shoulders and back faces, achieving high finish requirements for precision assemblies.
Reliable Performance for Mass Production
Full precision grinding ensures every insert maintains identical geometry and cutting performance. Effectively reduce dimensional fluctuation in large-batch reverse turning production.
Improve Overall Machining Efficiency
Complete back-facing features in one clamping, eliminate repeated fixture adjustment, shorten processing cycle and improve workshop productivity.
Reduce Total Tooling Cost
Long service life and stable cutting performance lower consumption of cutting tools. Less rejected workpieces help customers save production costs.
ABS15R series inserts focus on reverse machining processes which are difficult for standard turning tools, widely used in precision component manufacturing:

1. What is ABS15R Back Turning Insert used for?
ABS15R precision ground inserts are designed for reverse turning, back facing and internal shoulder machining. It is used to machine rear features inside workpieces that cannot be reached by ordinary forward turning inserts.
2. What is the difference between back turning insert and normal turning insert?
Back turning inserts feature special anti-interference geometry for reverse feed direction. Ordinary forward turning tools will collide when machining inner back surfaces, while ABS15R can smoothly access rear workpiece profiles.
3. What materials can ABS15R inserts process?
With matched carbide grades and coatings, ABS15R can machine stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, aluminum alloy, titanium alloy and other common precision metal materials.
4. Can ABS15R back turning inserts be customized?
Yes. We support customization of sizes, edge treatment, chip groove, substrate material and coatings. Customers can offer technical requirements, drawings or samples for exclusive tool development.
5. Is a special tool holder required for ABS15R?
Yes. ABS15R inserts need to cooperate with dedicated ABS15R back turning tool holders to achieve optimal clamping stability and avoid vibration during reverse cutting.
