BCHT160530R-K85 WK10 Fräswendeschneidplatte – K85 chipbreaker, 7° clearance (Walter Tools)

The BCHT160530R-K85 WK10 is a parallelogram 75° indexable milling insert engineered for productive, general-purpose milling applications with uncoated carbide performance.

• K85 chipbreaker for controlled chip formation
• Uncoated carbide grade WK10 for wide material range
• Parallelogram 75° form with 3 mm corner radius
• 7° clearance angle for reliable cutting engagement

Productivity through controlled chip formation and stable cutting

The combination of the K85 chipbreaker with an uncoated WK10 carbide substrate yields predictable chip formation and reduced risk of re-cutting. Stable chip control shortens non-productive time and simplifies swarf handling in batch processes. The insert geometry supports consistent cut evacuation, which in turn helps to maintain stable cutting forces and more uniform tool engagement—advantages that translate directly into higher productivity and fewer interruptions on the shop floor.

Geometry optimised for engagement stability and surface quality

The parallelogram 75° shape and 3 mm corner radius deliver a balance between robust cutting entry and favourable load distribution on the insert edge. A 7° clearance angle reduces rubbing at the flank face and helps preserve the cutting edge under interrupted cuts. These geometric decisions contribute to repeatable contact conditions, which improve process stability and help achieve consistent surface quality across serial production.

Application guidance and material suitability

The insert is supplied in the open Walter grade series and denoted by WK10, an uncoated carbide class; material suitability should be verified against the manufacturer's product matrix for specific workpiece materials. The designation indicates a versatile grade for general milling tasks. Operators are advised to consult the product matrix to confirm optimal cutting parameters and to select feeds and speeds that match both the insert grade and the workpiece material for predictable tool life.

Handling, tolerance and process integration

Manufactured to tolerance class H and carrying the series designation from Walter, this insert integrates into standard indexable toolholders that accept the corresponding geometries. The concise identification and consistent production quality support straightforward stock management and easy replacement in scheduled maintenance routines. Clear part marking and the standardised shape simplify ordering and reduce the risk of assembly errors in production environments.

FAQ

What is the primary advantage of the K85 chipbreaker?
The K85 chipbreaker on the BCHT160530R-K85 WK10 insert improves chip control and evacuation, reducing re-cutting and promoting more stable milling cycles.

Is WK10 coated or uncoated and what does that mean for use?
WK10 is specified as an uncoated carbide grade for the BCHT160530R-K85 WK10 insert; this generally suits a broad range of general-purpose milling tasks, but material matching should be confirmed via the product matrix.

Which insert geometry supports interrupted cutting with this product?
The parallelogram 75° form combined with a 7° clearance angle gives the insert a geometry that better handles interrupted cuts by reducing flank contact and distributing loads.

How should suitability for a specific workpiece material be verified?
Suitability should be checked against the manufacturer's product matrix for the WK10 series; Metav Werkzeuge can assist with specific recommendations and cutting-parameter guidance.
