CCMW060208-RK6 WKK10S — Turning insert for cast iron, rhombic 80° (Walter Tools)

A CCMW060208-RK6 WKK10S is a rhombic 80° indexable turning insert engineered for productive machining of cast iron components.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for wear resistance
• Optimised RK6 chipbreaker for cast iron
• Rhombic 80° geometry for versatile turning
• 0.8 mm corner radius for reliable edge strength

Higher productivity through a wear‑resistant coating

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WKK10S carbide grade delivers improved resistance to abrasive wear typical in cast iron applications. This results in longer intervals between indexings and fewer unscheduled tool changes, which directly improves machining throughput. The coated substrate provides a predictable gradual wear pattern, allowing process engineers to plan tool life economically and maintain consistent production rates.

Reliable chip control and stable cutting behaviour

Equipped with the RK6 chipbreaker, the insert produces short, manageable chips when turning grey or nodular cast iron, lowering the risk of entanglement and surface damage. The chip control system is optimised for the brittle, breaking chip forms encountered with cast iron (ISO group K), reducing machine downtime and improving operator safety. The controlled chip formation also supports a steadier cutting force, which contributes to a reproducible surface quality.

Consistent surface finish with robust edge geometry

The rhombic 80° geometry paired with a 0.8 mm corner radius provides a balance between edge strength and surface integrity. This geometry suits a wide range of turning tasks, from general finishing to medium-duty material removal, while maintaining edge stability under intermittent cuts. The tolerance class M ensures dimensional interchangeability across toolholders that accept this insert shape, simplifying tool management and replacement routines.

Application guidance and material focus

This indexable insert is specifically tuned for machining cast iron; the grade and chipbreaker address the abrasive wear and short, breaking chips typical of those materials. For practical deployment, the insert performs best in operations where reliable chip control, predictable tool life and consistent surface results are priorities. For further advice on cutting data, holder selection or process optimisation, technical consultants are available to support integration into existing turning centres.

FAQ

What materials is this insert designed for?
The CCMW060208-RK6 WKK10S insert is intended for machining cast iron; the WKK10S grade and RK6 chipbreaker are tuned to handle the abrasive wear and short, breaking chips typical of ISO group K materials.

How does the RK6 chipbreaker affect machining?
The RK6 chipbreaker promotes short, controllable chips when machining cast iron, which helps maintain surface quality and reduces the chance of chip-related interruptions during turning operations.

Which cutting tasks suit the rhombic 80° geometry and 0.8 mm radius?
The rhombic 80° form with a 0.8 mm corner radius offers a compromise between edge strength and surface finish, making it well suited to general purpose turning, medium stock removal and finishing in cast iron applications.

Is the insert compatible across standard toolholders?
The CCMW060208-RK6 WKK10S is manufactured to tolerance class M, allowing interchangeability with holders designed for this standard insert designation and simplifying tool replacement in production settings.

What benefits does the Tiger·tec Silver coating provide?
The Tiger·tec Silver coating enhances wear resistance and delivers a consistent wearing behaviour under the abrasive conditions of cast iron machining, contributing to longer tool life and more predictable process control.
