CCMT09T304-FW4 WPP20G – Turning indexable insert, Tiger·tec Gold, FW4 chipbreaker (Walter Tools)

The CCMT09T304-FW4 WPP20G is a rhombic 80° turning insert designed for universal steel machining, offering controlled chip formation with an FW4 chipbreaker and a 7° relief angle.

• Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide grade
• Universal grade for steel machining
• Rhombic 80° shape, 0.4 mm corner radius
• 7° clearance with FW4 chipbreaker

Consistent productivity through modern coating technology

The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold coating and the WPP20G substrate delivers a high level of process stability when machining steels. The coated carbide construction resists abrasive wear and maintains a stable cutting edge, which reduces tool changes and supports higher cutting parameters. This translates into measurable gains in throughput and repeatability on production lines where consistent cycle times are crucial. The integrated chip control strategy of the FW4 geometry improves evacuation and reduces built-up edge formation, enhancing surface quality during medium to heavy finishing passes.

Geometry that ensures dimensional accuracy and surface quality

A Rhombic 80° profile with a 0.4 mm corner radius provides a reliable balance between strength and finish. The 7° relief angle minimises rubbing while preserving cutting edge life, and the T3 insert thickness contributes to rigidity in standard toolholder pockets. These geometric features result in improved part tolerance adherence and a reduced risk of chatter in typical turning operations. The tolerance class M supports interchangeability and predictable seating in indexable holders, which simplifies setup and shortens machine downtime for tool changes.

Shop-floor benefits: handling, compatibility and economical use

Indexable inserts of this type simplify inventory management and lower per-part tooling costs compared with solid carbide alternatives. The FW4 chipbreaker offers manageable swarf for common steel grades, reducing secondary handling and cleaning time. Compatibility with conventional CCMT-compatible holders facilitates integration into existing turning fixtures without the need for costly adaptations. Together with the proven Walter Tools production standards, this insert supports a pragmatic approach to machining that emphasises uptime, repeatable quality and easy operator handling.
