ADMT160608R-D56 WKP35S indexable milling insert — Tiger‑tec Silver, for steel and cast iron, Walter Tools

The ADMT160608R-D56 WKP35S is an indexable milling insert designed for robust face and shoulder milling in mixed production environments, offering high process security for steel (P) and cast‑iron (K) applications.

*Tiger‑tec Silver coated carbide grade WKP35S *Parallelogram 85° geometry for versatile milling *0.8 mm corner radius for stable edge strength *Optimised chipformer D56 for steel and cast iron

Increase throughput with durable coated carbide

The Tiger‑tec Silver coating combined with the WKP35S grade delivers a balance of wear resistance and thermal stability that translates into longer tool life and fewer index changes per shift. Coated carbide reduces flank and crater wear under typical steel and cast‑iron cutting conditions, enabling higher cutting speeds and sustained productivity. For operations seeking lower cost per component, the coated grade supports extended life without sacrificing surface quality.

Reliable chip control for consistent part quality

The chipformer D56 is engineered to break and evacuate chips efficiently, reducing the risk of chip re‑cutting and heat build‑up. Paired with the parallelogram 85° geometry and a 15° relief, the insert promotes controlled cutting forces and stable engagement during interrupted cuts. The result is improved dimensional repeatability and fewer rejects when machining shoulder faces or stepped features.

Versatility across steel and cast‑iron machining

Specified for material groups P (steel) and K (cast iron), this grade suits workshops that handle a variety of ferrous components. The substrate and coating combination is optimised for the heat generation and abrasive wear typical of these materials, offering predictable performance across different steel grades and grey or nodular cast iron. This versatility simplifies tooling management for mixed production lines.

Process security and practical geometry benefits

With a 0.8 mm corner radius and a tolerance class of M, the insert provides robust edge strength while maintaining acceptable surface finish for typical finishing and semi‑finishing operations. The insert size 16 and thickness 06 allow integration into common milling cutter bodies designed for parallelogram‑style inserts, so retrofitting into existing tool systems is straightforward and keeps setup times low. These features support stable tool life and reproducible results in series production.
