CNMG120408-MP5 WPP05G turning insert — Tiger·tec Gold coated, for steel | Walter Tools

CNMG120408-MP5 WPP05G is a rhombic 80° turning insert engineered for reliable steel machining in general turning applications

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for longer tool life
• MP5 chipbreaker for controlled chip formation
• Rhombic 80° geometry for versatile turning
• 0.8 mm corner radius for balanced strength

Maximise uptime with consistent cutting performance

The CNMG120408-MP5 WPP05G indexable insert combines a Tiger·tec Gold surface treatment with a coated carbide substrate to provide high resistance to wear while maintaining toughness for interrupted cuts. The MP5 chipbreaker promotes predictable chip formation across typical steel grades, reducing rework and machine downtime. Designed for industrial turning, this tool supports repeatable processes and contributes to a steady production flow through improved tool life and stable edge behaviour.

Better surface quality and dependable chip control

Thanks to the rhombic 80° geometry and a 0° negative rake, the insert offers an effective balance between cutting edge strength and surface finish. The MP5 geometry is optimised for common steel machining tasks, enabling controlled chips that evacuate reliably and reduce the risk of built-up edge. These characteristics translate into fewer interruptions, more consistent part quality and a lower frequency of insert changes during batch production.

Robust design for adaptable workshop use

With a 0.8 mm corner radius and a compact plate size, this turning insert is suitable for a wide range of turning operations where a compromise between edge robustness and fine finishing is required. The coated carbide grade provides a combination of wear resistance and toughness, making the insert appropriate for standard and moderately demanding steel machining tasks. Integration into existing toolholders is straightforward thanks to the CNMG form factor and standard mounting dimensions.

Practical benefits for production planning

Using this Walter Tools insert supports predictable tooling cycles and easier inventory planning: the proven Tiger·tec Gold coating increases interval lengths between tool changes, while the MP5 chip control simplifies swarf handling. For shops prioritising process reliability and repeatable part quality, the insert reduces process variance and aids compliance with production schedules, especially in high-volume turning environments.
