Turning tool DIN 4972 (ISO 2) – 16 x 16 mm, Carbide P25/P30, Left-hand, Bent (Wilke)

The Turning tool DIN 4972 (ISO 2) is a left-hand, bent lathe tool designed for precise external turning and reliable chip guidance in industrial and workshop environments

• Carbide P25/P30 cutting insert
• Bent profile for improved chip control
• Cross-section 16 x 16 mm shank
• Left-hand, compliant with DIN 4972 (ISO 2)

Faster, more consistent turning through optimised carbide geometry

Equipped with carbide P25/P30, the tool balances wear resistance and toughness to support steady cutting performance under varied loads. The combination of a compact 16 x 16 mm shank and an overall length of 110 mm reduces unwanted flex and vibration, which directly improves dimensional consistency and surface finish on turned parts. For manufacturers seeking reproducible cycle times, the hardened cutting plates and precise geometry reduce rework and help streamline production planning.

Improved chip control and stability for reliable finishes

The bent profile is specifically shaped to influence chip flow and contact angles, helping to evacuate swarf cleanly and prevent build-up on the cutting edge. A steel shank fitted with diamond-ground carbide cutting plates provides a secure mounting for the insert and promotes thermal stability during continuous use. These features combine to lower the risk of chatter and to produce a smoother component face, which is particularly beneficial in batch production and precision repair work.

Practical fit for workshop and machine tool setups

Designed according to DIN 4972 (ISO 2) standards, the turning implement integrates easily into common tool posts and toolholders used in turning centres and conventional lathes. The left-hand cutting direction caters for turning operations where the tool approaches from the workpiece’s right-hand side. Its compact geometry and standardised interfaces make it suitable for both retrofit and new-tool setups, enabling faster tool changes and predictable machine set-up times.

Simple maintenance, spare-part logistics and packaging

Cutting plates are replaceable, allowing maintenance teams to restore cutting performance without replacing the entire holder. The unit is supplied in a pack of 5, facilitating stock control and minimising downtime for shops that rotate tools frequently. With a clear article reference and standard dimensions, procurement can be planned reliably and integrated into existing inventory systems to maintain continuous production flow.

FAQ

What materials is this turning tool intended for? The turning tool with carbide P25/P30 is designed for general external turning applications; selection of the correct insert grade and cutting data should be matched to the workpiece material for optimal results.

How does the bent profile affect chip control? The bent profile alters the contact angle and helps direct chips away from the cutting zone, improving evacuation and reducing the likelihood of re-cutting or edge build-up during extended passes.

Is the insert replaceable and how is the tool supplied? The tool is supplied as a holder fitted with diamond-ground carbide cutting plates and is delivered in a pack of 5; worn plates can be replaced to restore cutting performance.

Which standard does the tool conform to and why is that important? Compliance with DIN 4972 (ISO 2) ensures compatibility with standard toolholders and predictable mounting geometry, simplifying integration into existing lathe setups.

What does the left-hand cutting direction mean for application? Left-hand cutting indicates the tool is intended to cut when the workpiece rotation and tool feed require a left-handed approach; it is suited to operations where the tool engages the workpiece from the right-hand side.
