CCMT060204-FM6 WSM20S turning/boring indexable insert — Tiger·tec Silver, for stainless steel & superalloys | Walter Tools

CCMT060204-FM6 WSM20S is a coated turning and boring indexable insert engineered for machining stainless steel and high‑temperature superalloys in demanding production environments

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for wear resistance
• WSM20S grade for stainless and superalloys
• Rhombic 80° geometry for versatile turning
• 0.4 mm corner radius with 7° clearance

Productivity through wear‑resistant coating and robust grade

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WSM20S cutting grade provides measurable improvements in tool life and process stability when machining difficult‑to‑cut materials. The coating enhances wear resistance and reduces crater wear, while the substrate and grade chemistry are tuned for heat resistance and edge stability; together they enable longer uninterrupted cutting periods, fewer insert changes and a clearer cost‑per‑part advantage. For production planning, this means higher uptime and a more predictable tooling schedule.

Better chip control and surface reliability in demanding materials

Built with a rhombic 80° shape and a dedicated FM6 chipbreaker, the insert promotes consistent chip formation when turning stainless steel and superalloys. The modest 0.4 mm corner radius balances strength at the cutting edge with the ability to generate a good surface finish on difficult alloys. The specified 7° clearance angle helps prevent rubbing and reduces heat transfer into the cutting edge, which in turn improves dimensional repeatability and surface integrity on each pass. These geometric choices reduce the risk of built‑up edge and help maintain a reliable process window.

Simple integration and clear handling benefits for workshop use

This indexable insert is supplied in the standard CCMT form factor, compatible with common toolholders and tool posts used in turning and light boring operations. The CCMT060204-FM6 WSM20S insert is easy to mount and index, enabling quick changeovers and minimal downtime. The FM6 chipbreaker assists chip evacuation in both continuous and interrupted cuts, reducing manual chip handling and improving operator safety. For shops aiming to scale throughput, this insert supports a transition to more consistent cycle times and predictable component quality.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert designed to machine?
The CCMT060204-FM6 WSM20S insert is designed for stainless steel (ISO group M) and heat‑resistant superalloys/titanium (ISO group S), offering stable chip formation and edge life in those materials.

What is the benefit of the Tiger·tec Silver coating on this insert?
The Tiger·tec Silver coating increases wear resistance and reduces thermal softening at the cutting edge, which improves tool life and process stability when the CCMT060204-FM6 WSM20S is used on demanding alloys.

How does the FM6 chipbreaker affect machining?
The FM6 chipbreaker is engineered to promote controlled chip formation and evacuation, lowering the risk of entangling chips and supporting consistent surface finishes with this indexable insert.

Is the insert compatible with standard CCMT toolholders?
Yes, the CCMT060204-FM6 WSM20S follows the CCMT form factor and fits conventional CCMT‑compatible turning and boring holders, enabling straightforward tool changes.

What surface finish and edge strength can be expected with a 0.4 mm corner radius?
A 0.4 mm radius offers a compromise between edge robustness and achievable surface finish, giving the CCMT060204-FM6 WSM20S sufficient edge strength for interrupted cuts while still producing good component surface quality.
