Bohr-/Aufbohrwendeschneidplatte / Drehwendeschneidplatte CCGT060204-FM2 WSM01 — Tiger‑tec Silver for stainless steel & superalloys | Walter Tools

CCGT060204-FM2 WSM01 is an indexable turning and boring insert designed for demanding operations on stainless steel and heat‑resistant superalloys, offering a balanced mix of edge stability and chip control for industrial production.

• Tiger‑tec Silver coating for extended tool life
• WSM01 grade for stainless steel and superalloys
• Rhombic 80° geometry for versatile turning
• 0.4 mm corner radius for stable cutting edges

Consistent cutting performance for tough materials

The CCGT060204‑FM2 WSM01 insert combines the WSM01 cemented‑carbide grade with the Tiger‑tec Silver series to deliver reliable performance when machining demanding alloys. The WSM01 grade is formulated to handle the thermal and mechanical loads typical of stainless steel and heat‑resistant superalloys; in practice this means fewer edge‑buildups and a more predictable wear pattern. For users less familiar with ISO group codes: M denotes stainless steels, which are prone to work‑hardening and require secure chip formation, while S covers superalloys and titanium, materials that impose high thermal stress on the cutting edge. The combination of grade and coating supports stable cutting and repeatable surface quality under continuous production conditions.

Geometry and chip control that reduce rework

The insert’s Rhombic 80° form and FM2 chipbreaker are designed to manage chip formation across a range of turning and boring tasks. The moderate approach angle offers a balance between cutting edge strength and versatility, while the FM2 chipbreaker promotes short, controllable chips that evacuate reliably even in interrupted cuts. A 0.4 mm corner radius increases edge robustness and reduces the risk of chipping during feed variations; the 7° clearance angle helps to prevent rubbing and heat generation at the flank. Together, these features translate into more consistent surface finishes and less secondary machining.

Improved process reliability and predictable tool life

The coated cemented‑carbide composition and optimised geometry lead to measurable process benefits: reduced downtime, more predictable insert life, and steadier cycle times in repetitive production. The coating reduces abrasive wear and resists built‑up edge, so the cutting edge retains form for longer under continuous operation. In production terms, this contributes to lower scrap rates and a higher first‑pass yield. For operations aiming to increase throughput without compromising component quality, the insert provides a stable basis for process parameter tuning and tool‑life planning.

Simple integration into existing turning systems

As an indexable insert with standard CCGT mounting geometry, the unit integrates cleanly into common toolholders and turning systems; indexing minimises tool change time and keeps set‑ups repeatable. The plate size 06 and thickness 02 are compatible with many holder families used in industrial turning, which simplifies inventory and tool management. The insert’s balanced design allows process engineers to focus on cutting data optimisation rather than custom clamping solutions, making it suitable for both jobbing shops and serial production environments.

FAQ

Which materials are best suited for this insert?
The CCGT060204‑FM2 WSM01 insert is tailored for stainless steel (ISO group M) and heat‑resistant superalloys/titanium (ISO group S), providing secure chip formation and edge stability for these demanding materials.

What is the purpose of the FM2 chipbreaker?
The FM2 chipbreaker promotes short, controlled chips to improve evacuation and reduce the risk of chip entanglement during turning and boring operations with the WSM01 grade.

How does the Tiger‑tec Silver series affect tool life?
The Tiger‑tec Silver coating enhances wear resistance and reduces built‑up edge, which leads to more predictable insert life and steadier machining performance.

Can the insert be used in standard holder systems?
Yes, the rhombic CCGT form and common sizing (plate size 06, thickness 02) make the insert compatible with many standard turning and boring holders, simplifying integration.

What benefit does the 0.4 mm corner radius provide?
A 0.4 mm corner radius increases edge strength and helps maintain surface quality under variable feeds, reducing the likelihood of edge chipping in production environments.
