CNMG120404-MU5 WMP20G — Turning indexable insert for rostfreier Stahl by Walter Tools

CNMG120404-MU5 WMP20G is a rhombic 80° indexable turning insert designed for medium to heavy machining of rostfreier Stahl with a Tiger·tec Gold coating for enhanced wear resistance

• Tiger·tec Gold coating technology
• WMP20G grade for rostfreier Stahl
• Rhombic 80° shape, 0.4 mm nose radius
• Negative 0° relief angle, MU5 chipbreaker

Boosted edge stability for demanding rostfreier Stahl operations

The combination of the WMP20G grade and Tiger·tec Gold coating provides a measurable improvement in wear resistance and edge life when machining rostfreier Stahl. These features lead to fewer insert changes and more predictable tool-life intervals, which supports higher uptime and lower production cost per part. The MU5 chipbreaker is engineered to promote stable chip formation, reducing the risk of built-up edge and improving surface finish under medium to robust cutting conditions.

Geometry that supports versatile turning tasks

The insert’s rhombic 80° form and 0.4 mm nose radius balance strength and accessibility for different turning profiles. The geometry enables secure corner strength for interrupted cuts while still allowing entry into tight radii. The negative 0° relief angle provides a robust cutting edge that is less prone to chipping in heavier cuts, making the insert suitable for operations where stability and repeatability are priorities rather than ultra-fine finishing.

Process security through controlled chipbreaking and coating synergy

The MU5 chipbreaker works in concert with the coated carbide substrate to control chip flow in rostfreier Stahl, a material group known for toughness and heat sensitivity. The indexed insert’s construction reduces tendencies for stringing or welding on the cutting edge, which supports consistent cycle times and reduces secondary operations for chip management. This tangible process security benefits production environments that demand repeatable outcomes and minimal operator intervention.

Practical advantages for workshop integration and productivity

With a standard ISO designation and compact dimensions, this insert integrates smoothly with common toolholders and turning systems, facilitating rapid replacement and straightforward inventory management. The insert’s attributes—coating, grade and chipbreaker—are chosen to deliver a pragmatic balance between performance and cost-effectiveness, helping maintain throughput without compromising component quality. For tailored cutting data or holder recommendations, technical advice is available to match the insert to specific turning tasks.
