CCMT060208-FW4 WKP01G indexable turning insert — Tiger·tec Gold coating for steel and cast iron (Walter Tools)

A CCMT060208-FW4 WKP01G indexable turning insert designed for productive turning of steels (ISO P) and cast irons (ISO K), combining a Tiger·tec Gold coating with an FW4 chipbreaker for stable cutting performance

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for long tool life
• Optimised FW4 chipbreaker for reliable chip control
• Rhombic 80° geometry, 0.8 mm corner radius
• Suitable for steel and cast iron machining

Durable coating and grade for higher process reliability

The combination of Tiger·tec Gold coating and the WKP01G grade provides enhanced resistance to abrasive and adhesive wear, which results in longer tool life under typical turning conditions. The coated carbide construction reduces flank wear and maintains cutting edge stability during extended runs, so production processes benefit from fewer insert changes and more consistent part quality. This performance is particularly relevant for operations that require repeatability and reduced downtime.

Predictable chip control and improved surface finish

The FW4 chipbreaker has been developed to manage the chip form typical for steels and cast irons, promoting short, controlled chips and reducing the risk of entanglement. Combined with the rhombic 80° geometry and a 0.8 mm corner radius, the insert supports steady cutting forces and improved surface integrity. In practice, this means fewer secondary operations to correct the finish and a more economical machining sequence when paired with the correct cutting parameters.

Stable geometry for easy set-up and consistent results

With a defined clearance angle (7°) and a tolerance class M, the insert offers dependable seating in indexable tool holders and facilitates repeatable positioning. The standardised CCMT form and size ensure compatibility with a wide range of turning holders, simplifying tool management at the workbench. The predictable mechanical behaviour of the insert reduces variability between batches, supporting higher first-pass yields and streamlined tool inventory.

Application guidance and practical advantages

This indexable insert is suitable for turning of steel (P) and cast iron (K) in general-purpose and production environments. The geometry and chip control suit finishing and medium-depth roughing cuts when combined with appropriate feeds and speeds for the workpiece material. For best results, match the insert to a stable toolholder, use recommended cutting parameters for the material group and monitor wear progression to determine optimal index intervals.

FAQ

Is this insert suitable for stainless steel?
The CCMT060208-FW4 WKP01G is optimised for steel (P) and cast iron (K); stainless steel suitability is not specified for this grade.

What benefit does the Tiger·tec Gold coating provide?
The Tiger·tec Gold coating increases wear resistance and edge security, extending the service life of the insert during continuous turning of steels and cast irons.

How does the FW4 chipbreaker influence machining?
The FW4 chipbreaker produces short, controlled chips for safer chip evacuation and more consistent surface finish when machining P and K material groups.

What does the 0.8 mm corner radius affect?
A 0.8 mm corner radius balances edge strength and surface finish: it improves tool life in interrupted cuts while maintaining acceptable surface quality in finishing passes.

Can the insert be indexed in standard CCMT holders?
Yes, the CCMT form and tolerance class M ensure compatibility with standard CCMT indexable turning holders for straightforward installation and repeatable positioning.
