Take advantage of the combination of carbide P25/P30 durability, a bent DIN 4972 (ISO 2) geometry for improved access, and a robust 12 x 12 mm cross-section to maintain consistent turning performance; order the tool directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult our specialists for integration advice.

Wilke bent carbide turning tool 12 x 12 mm (left-hand) – DIN 4972 (ISO 2)

A Wilke bent carbide turning tool for precision external turning and confined-access operations, supplied with diamond-ground carbide inserts for fine surface finish.

• Carbide grades P25/P30 for wear resistance
• Bent geometry to DIN 4972 (ISO 2) for reach
• 12 x 12 mm compact cross-section
• Left-hand cutting direction for reversing operations

Precision and endurance through carbide engineering

The bent tool offers a compact geometry that combines stability and access, making it suitable where straight holders obstruct the machining path. Manufactured with cemented carbide P25/P30, the tool provides enhanced wear resistance and predictable edge life under steady cutting conditions. The diamond-ground cutting faces ensure a consistent surface quality on turned components while reducing the need for frequent edge reshaping, supporting continuous production runs and predictable maintenance cycles.

Geometry that improves reach and process reliability

With a bent DIN 4972 (ISO 2) profile and a 12 x 12 mm cross-section, the design reduces interference in tight set-ups and allows safer clearance near shoulders and collars. The left-hand cut orientation enables operations where the workpiece rotation and feed direction demand reverse cutting geometry. The steel shank construction contributes to torsional rigidity, while the bent form helps maintain cutting stability, reducing chatter and improving dimensional repeatability for serial turning tasks.

Application-focused benefits and straightforward integration

Equipped with diamond-ground carbide inserts mounted on a steel shank, the tool supports fine finishing passes as well as routine external turning sequences. The standard compliance with DIN 4972 (ISO 2) simplifies holder selection and ensures compatibility with common toolpost and turret systems, enabling rapid adoption into existing CNC or manual lathe workflows. Consistent insert geometry contributes to predictable cutting forces and reduced cycle-time variability, which benefits process planning and quality control.

Practical handling, packaging and inventory considerations

Supplied in a packaging unit of 5, the tool is easy to store and rotate within a small-tool inventory strategy. The compact 100 mm overall length and the square cross-section simplify holder clamping and replacement during set-up changes. Identification by SKU 4118605552NW allows straightforward ordering and inventory tracking; the tool’s standardised dimensions and material specification support reproducible set-ups and minimise procurement complexity for production planners.

FAQ

What materials is the tool intended for?
The Wilke bent carbide turning tool is specified with cemented carbide P25/P30 inserts, providing general-purpose durability for typical external turning applications; specific material compatibility should be confirmed against cutting parameters.

Is the tool compatible with standard DIN 4972 holders?
Yes. Compliance with DIN 4972 (ISO 2) ensures compatibility with standard holders designed for that profile, simplifying integration into existing toolposts and turrets.

How does the left-hand cutting direction affect its use?
Left-hand cutting means the tool is ground for feeds that require reverse cutting orientation; choose this orientation where the lathe feed and rotation require left-hand tools for correct tool–workpiece engagement.

Can the diamond-ground inserts improve surface finish?
Diamond-ground cutting faces on the inserts are intended to produce a finer initial surface and more consistent cutting behaviour, which can reduce subsequent finishing steps in many turning operations.

What information identifies the exact article for ordering?
Order or reference the tool by SKU 4118605552NW and the label supplied, which matches the Wilke bent carbide turning tool specification.
