Bohr-/Aufbohrwendeschneidplatte CCGT120408-MP4 WPP20G for Steel (Walter Tools) — Tiger‑tec Gold, Rhombic 80°

The CCGT120408-MP4 WPP20G is an indexable insert engineered for high-productivity drilling, boring and turning in steel, offering a balance of wear resistance and reliable chip control for industrial metalcutting applications.

• Tiger‑tec Gold coating for extended tool life
• Optimised MP4 chipbreaker for consistent chips
• Rhombic 80° geometry, 7° clearance

Greater uptime through high-performance coating and substrate

The combination of the Tiger‑tec Gold coating and the WPP20G coated carbide grade provides noticeably improved wear resistance and a stable cutting edge in demanding steel applications. Coating technology reduces flank wear and minimises notch formation during interrupted cuts, which translates into fewer index changes and longer tool life. For production environments this means more consistent cycle times and lower tooling replacement frequency. The coated carbide substrate is tuned to handle the heat and abrasive conditions typical when machining unalloyed and alloyed steel, supporting efficient, repeatable results.

Reliable chip control and geometry for predictable finishes

The insert’s MP4 chipbreaker and rhombic 80° form are designed to produce controlled chip flow and stable cutting forces, aiding surface finish and dimensional consistency. A 0.8 mm corner radius increases edge strength and reduces vibration on interrupted or heavy cuts, while the 7° clearance prevents rubbing and supports effective shear formation. These geometric choices help reduce the likelihood of edge chipping and improve process security, which is particularly valuable for series production where repeatability and part quality are essential.

Practical application and handling benefits in workshop use

Designed specifically for the ISO P material group, the insert is suitable for a wide range of steel turning and boring tasks, addressing the common heat and chip formation behaviours encountered in these materials. The CCGT120408-MP4 WPP20G offers straightforward indexability and compatibility with standard Walter toolholders, enabling fast changeover and minimal downtime. For operations seeking a balance between productivity and surface quality, this grade delivers consistent performance across varying feed rates and depths of cut, supporting both batch and continuous manufacturing settings.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The insert is specified for steel (ISO group P); the WPP20G grade and Tiger‑tec Gold coating make it well suited to both unalloyed and alloyed steels.

How does the MP4 chipbreaker affect machining?
The MP4 chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation, improving surface finish and reducing the risk of chip-related interruptions during turning and drilling operations.

What are the geometric advantages of the rhombic 80° shape?
Rhombic 80° geometry offers versatility in entry angles and turning operations, providing a combination of strength and accessibility for shoulder and profile cuts.

Is the corner radius suitable for heavy cuts?
The 0.8 mm corner radius increases edge robustness and helps absorb load peaks, making the insert appropriate for interrupted and heavier cuts where a stronger cutting edge is required.

Which product references should be used when ordering or enquiring?
Reference the designation CCGT120408-MP4 WPP20G and the SKU CCGT120408-MP4-WPP20G-WALTER for clear identification.
