CCMT160508-MP6 WPP30G turning insert — Tiger‑tec Gold grade, for steel (Walter Tools)

A CCMT160508-MP6 WPP30G turning insert engineered for reliable steel machining, offering optimised wear resistance and consistent chip control in production environments.

• CCMT160508-MP6 WPP30G by Walter Tools
• Tiger‑tec Gold coated carbide grade
• MP6 chipbreaker for stable chips
• Rhombic 80° form, 0.8 mm corner radius

Consistent chip control for uninterrupted cutting cycles

The rhombic 80° geometry combined with the MP6 chipbreaker delivers reproducible chip control that reduces risk of built-up edge and machine downtime. The insert’s geometry and the chipbreaker design help direct chips away from the cutting zone, improving surface finish and minimising cycle interruptions. For series production where reproducibility and short cycle times are critical, this combination supports a predictable machining rhythm and reduces secondary operations such as chip clearing.

Optimised grade for steel applications and longer tool life

The WPP30G grade from the Tiger‑tec Gold family is a coated carbide formulation tailored to the thermal and mechanical conditions of steel turning (ISO P). Its coating enhances wear resistance and heat management, which translates into longer edge life under medium to high cutting speeds. The result is fewer insert changes per shift and improved overall productivity in mixed-steel batches. The grade balances toughness and wear resistance, making it suitable for a range of typical steel operations from finishing to medium machining.

Geometry and clearance that support reliable performance

With a clearance angle of 7° and a 0.8 mm corner radius, the insert offers a stable cutting edge that combines strength with a good surface finish. The nominal size 16 form provides a compact yet robust contact area, allowing consistent engagement at diverse depths of cut. The geometry reduces the risk of edge chipping in interrupted cuts and supports accurate dimensional control across long runs, which is particularly valuable in component manufacturing where repeatability is essential.
