WPMT 050308 T313W – Trigon ISO turning insert, D3 chipbreaker (for external & internal turning) – Tungaloy
WPMT 050308 T313W is an ISO-format trigon indexable insert intended for general turning operations, combining wear resistance, edge stability and straightforward integration into standard holders
- ISO-compliant trigon insert WPMT050308-D3
- Tungaloy T313W grade for wear resistance
- D3 chipbreaker for dependable chip control
- 11° clearance and 0.8 mm corner radius
Consistent edge life for uninterrupted machining
The combination of the T313W carbide grade and the insert geometry is engineered to balance wear resistance with toughness, resulting in a stable cutting edge and longer in-process life. In practice, this means fewer insert changes and more continuous machining time; the grade complements the D3 chipbreaker to avoid premature flank wear while maintaining a competitive edge life. The insert’s trigon shape allows three indexed edges, promoting cost-effective use of each insert.
Predictable chip control and process reliability
Built around the D3 chipbreaker and an optimised cutting geometry, the insert enables controlled chip formation for turning tasks that demand consistency. The cylindrical insert hole with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) secures repeatable clamping and supports stable metal flow away from the cutting zone. These features help reduce vibration and the risk of edge chipping, improving surface finish and lowering the probability of unplanned downtime during both external and internal turning.
Easy integration into standard tooling systems
The indexable design is ISO-compliant, so compatibility with holders is determined by form, clearance, tolerance class, size and thickness rather than brand specifics. The 3.18 mm plate thickness and standard size designation ensure straightforward replacement and fitment in typical external holders or boring bars. The defined 11° clearance and 0.8 mm corner radius provide predictable engagement with the workpiece, making set-up times shorter and process reproducibility higher across repetitive series production.
Broad material applicability and application advice
The insert’s construction supports a wide range of materials by offering a compromise between hardness resistance and toughness. The T313W grade complements the geometry for turning tasks where controlled wear and edge stability are priorities. For best results, match the D3 chipbreaker and the grade to the workpiece material and the stability of the set-up; selecting the appropriate feed and depth of cut will further improve tool life and surface integrity.
