ADMT160620R-F56 WKP35S – Indexable milling insert, Tiger·tec Silver by Walter Tools

The ADMT160620R-F56 WKP35S is an indexable milling insert in parallelogram 85° form, engineered for productive finishing and semi-finishing of steel and cast iron components.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for stable wear resistance
• WKP35S grade for steel and cast iron machining
• Parallelogram 85° form with 15° relief angle

High productivity through advanced coating and grade

The combination of Tiger·tec Silver and the WKP35S cutting grade delivers a balance of heat resistance and abrasion control, which translates into longer tool life and fewer index changes. This makes the insert particularly suitable where continuous, high-volume milling is required: the coating reduces flank and crater wear, while the grade optimises performance on both steel and cast iron, improving overall process efficiency and lowering downtime for insert replacement.

Geometry that stabilises cutting and improves surface quality

The parallelogram 85° form and the 15° relief angle create positive cutting engagement, reducing the tangential cutting forces and enabling stable milling at varying depths. Combined with the chipbreaker F56, this geometry supports predictable chip formation and evacuation, which in turn helps maintain consistent surface finish. The corner radius 2 contributes to edge strength and aids in producing uniform part geometry with reduced risk of workpiece distortion.

Broad applicability for steel and cast iron operations

Designed for the ISO groups P and K, the insert is effective across a wide range of unalloyed and alloyed steels as well as grey and nodular cast iron. The insert’s specification supports both finishing and light roughing tasks depending on cutter geometry and process parameters. For operations that require flexibility across workpiece materials, the combination of grade and chip control reduces the need for multiple specialised inserts, simplifying tool management and inventory.

Practical handling and integration in tool systems

With a nominal size 16 and thickness 06, the insert fits standard milling cutter pockets that accept parallelogram 85° inserts; tolerance class M ensures repeatable seating and alignment in the toolholder. The designation ADMT160620R-F56 identifies both the geometry and the integrated chipbreaker, which assists in quick selection and replacement. Such clarity in design and coding supports process planners and shopfloor staff in maintaining consistent machining parameters and scheduling preventive changeovers.
