CCMT09T308-FP6 WPP20G — Turning insert, Tiger·tec Gold, FP6, Walter Tools

CCMT09T308-FP6 WPP20G is a rhombic 80° indexable turning insert formulated for steel machining, combining a Tiger·tec Gold coating with a FP6 chipbreaker to deliver controlled chip formation and consistent surface finish.

• Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide grade WPP20G
• Geometry FP6 chipbreaker for stable chips
• Rhombic 80° shape, 0.8 mm corner radius
• Designed for steel (ISO P), free angle 7°

Stable performance from a coated grade

The WPP20G grade, part of the Tiger·tec Gold series, is a coated carbide solution optimised for the thermal and mechanical demands of turning steel (ISO P). Its coating technology improves wear resistance and reduces flank wear under typical steel cutting temperatures, which contributes to a longer tool life and fewer insert changes. For production environments that prioritise throughput and repeatability, the combination of this grade with a stable substrate ensures a measurable reduction in downtime and predictable replacement cycles.

Precision geometry that controls chips and finish

A well‑defined chipformer and rake geometry make the difference between frequent interruptions and uninterrupted cutting. The FP6 chipbreaker is engineered for consistent chip segmentation in common steel grades, reducing the risk of entangling long chips and improving process stability. The 0.8 mm corner radius and rhombic 80° shape support accurate profile reproduction and contribute to a superior surface finish on turned components, particularly where dimensional consistency is required across batches.

Practical gains for machining productivity

Using this insert family can lead to tangible production benefits: reduced cycle variability, stable cutting forces and improved edge life. The moderate 7° free angle supports finishing to medium depths of cut while maintaining edge strength, so operators experience a balance between cutting security and achievable surface quality. Explained plainly, the insert’s features translate into fewer interruptions for tool change, more consistent part quality and a better cost‑per‑component figure in serial turning operations.

Handling and application guidance for the workshop

The insert is supplied in the CCMT format and a T‑type execution, making it compatible with standard turning toolholders designed for rhombic 80° inserts. The series: Tiger·tec Gold and grade: WPP20G indicate suitability for a broad range of steel machining tasks, with reliable chip control in mixed material batches. For workshop planning, the insert’s designation and geometry simplify tool selection and inventory management, since the coding corresponds to widely used ISO insert standards and toolholder interfaces.

FAQ

What material range is this insert intended for?
This insert is specified for steel machining (ISO P) and the WPP20G grade of the Tiger·tec Gold series is tuned for the thermal and chip‑forming behaviour typical of unalloyed and alloyed steels.

How does the FP6 chipbreaker affect machining?
The FP6 chipbreaker promotes regular chip segmentation and stable evacuation when cutting steel, improving process reliability and reducing the likelihood of chip interference in turning operations.

Which toolholders are compatible with this insert format?
The CCMT form factor and rhombic 80° geometry are compatible with standard turning holders designed for 80° rhombic inserts; holders accepting CCMT‑type inserts will suit this product.

Does the 0.8 mm corner radius suit finishing operations?
A 0.8 mm corner radius provides a compromise between edge strength and surface finish, making it suitable for finishing and light semi‑finishing passes where dimensional control and surface integrity matter.
