CNMG090304-FP5 WPP10G indexable turning insert for steel — Walter Tools (Tiger‑tec Gold, FP5)

The CNMG090304-FP5 WPP10G is an indexable turning insert designed for reliable material removal in steel applications, offering a Tiger‑tec Gold grade for enhanced wear resistance and consistent process security.

• Tiger‑tec Gold coating for extended wear
• FP5 chipbreaker for stable chip control
• Rhombic 80° geometry for versatile turning

Longer tool life from advanced coating technology

The coated carbide grade WPP10G, applied via the Tiger‑tec Gold technology, delivers consistently stable wear behaviour when machining steel. This results in longer tool life and fewer insert changes, which reduces downtime and contributes to a lower cost per component. The coating is optimised for the heat and chip characteristics typical of steel machining, so the insert supports productive, predictable machining cycles and improved process efficiency.

Reliable geometry for consistent surface quality

The rhombic 80° shape combined with a 0.4 mm corner radius provides a good balance between strength and finishing capability. The geometry and M tolerance class ensure repeatable seating in the toolholder and predictable cutting behaviour, which supports tighter dimensional control and a better surface finish. The 0° (negative) relief angle increases edge stability in heavy cuts, making the insert suitable for a range of turning tasks from medium to heavier operations.

Controlled chip formation for safer, faster cycles

The FP5 chipbreaker is engineered to produce manageable swarf when machining steels, reducing the risk of long, stringy chips that can foul the work area or tool. This optimised chip control supports higher metal removal rates and helps maintain a consistent cutting force, reducing vibration and improving tool life. Stable chip formation also simplifies post-process handling and contributes to a cleaner, safer machining environment.

Practical application and process guidance

This insert is specified for the machining of steel as designated by the material group P in ISO 513; it is suitable for both unalloyed and alloyed steels where reliable wear resistance and chip control are required. The plate designation and dimensions support common turning setups, and users who require tailored cutting data or have specific workpiece materials are advised to consult Metav Werkzeuge for recommended speeds, feeds and tooling arrangements to achieve optimal productivity.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert suitable for?
The CNMG090304-FP5 WPP10G insert is designed for machining steels (material group P according to ISO 513), including unalloyed and alloyed steels where controlled wear and chip formation are required.

What advantages does the Tiger‑tec Gold grade provide?
The Tiger‑tec Gold technology applied to the WPP10G grade offers improved wear resistance and thermal stability, extending the service life of the insert in steel turning operations.

How does the FP5 chipbreaker improve machining?
The FP5 chipbreaker on the insert promotes short, controllable chips when turning steel, which reduces the risk of chip entanglement and supports higher, more stable metal removal rates.

Is this insert suitable for finishing passes?
With a 0.4 mm corner radius and rhombic 80° geometry, the insert can be used for light to medium finishing passes; for ultra-fine finishes, consideration of radius, machining parameters and toolholder rigidity is recommended.
