CCGT060202-X5 WAK15 boring/reboring indexable insert — WAK15 for aluminium & non‑ferrous metals (Walter Tools)

The CCGT060202-X5 WAK15 is a rhombic 80° boring/reboring indexable insert, optimised for machining aluminium and other non‑ferrous materials in serial and single‑pass operations

Consistent cutting performance for non‑ferrous work

The WAK15 grade is an uncoated carbide specifically intended for machining aluminium and similar non‑ferrous alloys; its microstructure and sharp edge geometry reduce built‑up edge and prevent material adhesion. In practice, this means more reliable surface finish and fewer interrupted cycles during production runs. The insert’s design focuses on controllable chip formation and reduced friction, which is particularly beneficial when the priority is a clean cut rather than heavy roughing.

Predictable chip control and surface quality

The X5 chipbreaker delivers stabilised chip flow that helps avoid entanglement in the bore and keeps coolant access clear. Combined with the rhombic 80° form and a modest 0.2 mm radius, the geometry balances cutting edge strength with the ability to produce fine finishes. The specified 7° clearance reduces rubbing on the flank face, improving repeatability and lowering the risk of premature edge wear during medium‑speed aluminium turning or boring operations.

Compact dimensions for standard toolholders

The CCGT060202-X5 WAK15 insert corresponds to the common 06 size and 02 thickness, allowing straightforward replacement in many industry standard boring and reboring tool bodies. Tolerance class G ensures consistent seat fit and indexability, which reduces set‑up time and contributes to process stability. Because the insert is uncoated, cutting parameters should be adapted for lubrication and feed to achieve optimal tool life in delicate non‑ferrous tasks.

Operational advantages that matter on the shop floor

Using a purpose‑designed indexable insert for aluminium machining reduces cycle time and the need for rework; the combination of material grade and chipbreaker supports both high surface quality and predictable tool life. The insert’s compatibility with the Walter N‑Sortensystem series means straightforward grade allocation across tool inventories, simplifying tooling logistics and procurement. For operations seeking a balance of precision and economy, this insert supports productive, repeatable results while remaining simple to implement.
