CCMT09T304-RP4 WPP20G — Turning indexable insert, Tiger·tec Gold, Walter Tools

The CCMT09T304-RP4 WPP20G is a coated carbide turning insert engineered for productive machining of steel in general turning operations and finishing passes.

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for extended tool life
• Optimised RP4 chipbreaker for reliable chip control
• Rhombic 80° shape with 0.4 mm corner radius
• Designed for steel (ISO P) machining

Consistent performance in steel turning

The coated WPP20G grade, part of the Tiger·tec Gold family, is formulated for the thermal and mechanical demands of steel machining. Its combination of a wear-resistant coating and a robust substrate results in stable cutting behaviour and predictable flank wear, which reduces the need for frequent insert changes. For applications where process reliability and repeatable part quality matter, this turning grade reduces downtime by maintaining cutting-edge integrity over longer tool life cycles.

Precise chip control and surface quality

An RP4 chipbreaker is integrated to manage chips effectively under typical steel cutting conditions, promoting continuous, controllable chips that prevent entanglement and workpiece damage. The rhombic 80° geometry, coupled with a 0.4 mm corner radius, supports fine surface finishes and dimensional stability in finishing and medium-depth turning. As a result, cycle times can be optimised without compromising surface integrity, and rework is reduced thanks to consistent chip evacuation.

Machine and process economy through longer life

By combining coating technology with optimised edge preparation, the insert achieves improved wear resistance and lower flank-load sensitivity. This translates into fewer tool changes and a reduced tooling cost per part, which is particularly advantageous in high-volume production. The economic benefit is evident in extended intervals between indexing and lower tool stock levels required to sustain a production run, aiding predictable production planning.

Compatibility and application guidance

The insert is designated for ISO P applications and is therefore suited to unalloyed and alloyed steels. The CCMT09T304-RP4 geometry supports common turning tool holders designed for rhombic 80° inserts and a T3 plate thickness. When integrating into existing tool setups, consider feed and speed adjustments to exploit the Tiger·tec Gold coating fully; recommended cutting parameters can be provided for specific steel grades to balance tool life and productivity.
