CNMG120408‑MP3 WPP10G indexable turning insert — Rhombus 80°, MP3 chipbreaker (Walter Tools)

The CNMG120408‑MP3 WPP10G is an indexable turning insert designed for machining steels (ISO P), combining a wear‑resistant coated grade with a medium‑duty chipbreaker for efficient, repeatable cutting performance.

• Tiger‑tec Gold coating for extended tool life
• Designed for ISO P (steel) machining
• Rhombus 80° shape for versatile turning
• 0.8 mm nose radius for balanced finish and strength

Extended tool life through advanced coating and grade

The combination of the Tiger‑tec Gold coating and the WPP10G grade delivers enhanced wear resistance and stable cutting-edge behaviour when machining steels. As a coated carbide solution, the insert reduces flank and crater wear under typical steel cutting temperatures, which contributes to longer tool life and fewer indexings. The result is a measurable productivity gain in batch and continuous operations, while maintaining predictable tool-change intervals.

Reliable chip control and improved surface quality

Equipped with the MP3 chipbreaker, the insert focuses on medium to heavier turning tasks, shaping chips to evacuate reliably under a wide range of feeds and depths of cut. The combination of the chipbreaker design and a 0.8 mm nose radius helps to balance cutting forces and surface finish, producing consistent component geometry and reducing the need for downstream finishing operations. This stability supports tighter process tolerances and fewer rejects.

Robust geometry for demanding turning tasks

The Rhombus 80° form provides good access for a variety of turning applications, offering both clearance and strength for interrupted or continuous cuts. The insert’s 0° rake (negative geometry) contributes to edge robustness, making it suitable for tougher engagement conditions. The nominal plate thickness and M tolerance class ensure repeatable seating and accurate positioning in standard toolholders, which is essential for consistent production.

Application guidance for process security

Classified for ISO P materials, the insert is intended primarily for unalloyed and alloyed steel machining where thermal and chip‑formation behaviour is typical for steels. Use the insert where a balance of wear resistance and toughness is required—typical tasks include general turning, light profiling and semi‑finishing operations. For tailored recommendations on cutting data or holder selection, Metav Werkzeuge can provide application‑specific guidance to integrate the insert into existing processes.
