CCGW060208TM-2 WBH10C turning indexable insert — CBN grade, 7° relief — Walter Tools

A Walter Tools CCGW060208TM-2 WBH10C insert engineered for high-performance hard turning and finishing of hardened steels and pre-hardened components.

• CBN grade WBH10C for hard turning
• 7° relief angle for controlled cutting
• Rhombic 80° form for versatile application
• 0.8 mm corner radius for robust edges

High-performance grade for hard turning productivity

The insert uses a CBN-based grade developed for demanding hard-material machining, offering superior wear resistance compared with traditional carbide grades. This makes it particularly suitable for sustained operations on hardened steels, where abrasive wear and high contact stresses are common. By combining a CBN cutting edge with a stable geometry, the insert reduces flank wear and helps maintain consistent part tolerances over longer tool life, supporting efficient, repeatable production cycles.

Geometry and edge security that reduce rework

The Rhombic 80° shape and a 0.8 mm corner radius provide an optimised compromise between strength and accessibility: the acute approach enables turning close to shoulders and grooves, while the radius reinforces the cutting edge against chipping. The 7° relief angle moderates cutting forces and improves surface generation on hard materials, helping to achieve predictable finishes without aggressive cutting parameters. These design choices lower the frequency of regrinding or insert changes, improving uptime in series production.

Practical benefits for shop-floor implementation

With a compact insert size and a chipbreaker designed for stable chip control, the component supports controlled material removal rates in finishing and light roughing passes on pre-hardened components. The combination of grade and geometry leads to measurable productivity gains: fewer interruptions for tool changes, more consistent surface results and reduced scrap rates during hard turning tasks. For machinists and production engineers, this translates directly into better throughput and lower cost per component when processing tough alloys and quenched parts.

Application advice and technical support

Selection of cutting data and holder geometry is critical when working with CBN inserts; optimal feeds and depths of cut depend on the specific hardness and alloy of the workpiece. For detailed parameter recommendations, workholding tips and compatible toolholder suggestions, Metav Werkzeuge provides targeted technical support and can advise on integration into existing turning cells. For complex or critical components, consulting application notes or requesting machining trials under controlled conditions is recommended to exploit the full potential of the grade.

FAQ

What materials is this insert designed for?
The CC G W060208TM-2 WBH10C insert is designed primarily for hardened steels and pre-hardened components, utilising the WBH10C CBN grade for sustained wear resistance.

How does the 0.8 mm corner radius affect performance?
A 0.8 mm corner radius increases edge strength and resistance to chipping, improving stability during finishes and helping to maintain dimensional repeatability on hard workpieces.

Which relief angle is specified and why is it important?
A 7° relief angle is specified to balance cutting forces and tool life; it reduces rubbing behind the cutting edge and aids in producing consistent surface quality on hard materials.
