CNMG160624-RP5 WPP10G — indexable turning insert, Tiger·tec Gold, Walter Tools

The CNMG160624-RP5 WPP10G is an indexable turning insert designed for general steel turning applications, combining a robust coated carbide grade with an RP5 chipbreaker and rhombic 80° geometry.

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for extended life
• Coated carbide grade WPP10G for steel
• RP5 chipbreaker for consistent chip control
• Rhombic 80° with 2.4 mm nose radius

High process stability and cost-efficiency for steel machining

The combination of Tiger·tec Gold coating and the WPP10G grade ensures high wear resistance and stable edge behaviour when machining steels (ISO group P). This engineered coating reduces flank wear and thermal impact during continuous and interrupted cuts, which leads to longer tool life and lower throughput costs per component. The rhombic 80° form and the insert’s geometry support adaptable cutting conditions in turning operations, enabling shops to maintain productivity without frequent index changes or regrinds.

Predictable chip control and improved surface quality

The RP5 chipbreaker is tuned for consistent chip formation in a broad range of steels, improving evacuation and reducing the risk of built-up edge. Better chip control contributes directly to a steady surface finish and fewer secondary operations. For machinists less familiar with chipbreaker functions: the RP5 geometry channels the swarf and maintains a regular chip shape at common cutting speeds, which simplifies process set-up and reduces downtime arising from poor evacuation.

Geometry and mounting that simplify workshop integration

With a 2.4 mm corner radius, a rhombic 80° outline and a negative 0° rake, this insert is suitable for medium-duty turning and finishing passes where robustness and repeatability matter. The thickness and size correspond to conventional CNMG standards, allowing straightforward fitting into existing toolholders. The insert’s tolerance class M supports consistent seating and repeatable results in batch production, making it practical for both jobbing shops and series production environments.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The CNMG160624-RP5 WPP10G insert is optimised for machining steels (ISO group P) thanks to the WPP10G grade and Tiger·tec Gold coating.

How does the RP5 chipbreaker affect machining?
The RP5 chipbreaker on the Walter Tools insert stabilises chip formation and evacuation, which supports consistent surface quality and reduces the risk of chip-related interruptions.

Can this insert be used for finishing passes?
Yes, the rhombic 80° geometry with a 2.4 mm corner radius allows for medium to fine finishing when set up with appropriate feeds and speeds.

Is the CNMG geometry compatible with standard holders?
The CNMG160624-RP5 conforms to common CNMG dimensions and fits conventional CNMG toolholders, enabling easy integration into existing setups.

What advantages does Tiger·tec Gold offer compared with standard coatings?
Tiger·tec Gold enhances wear resistance and thermal stability for the coated carbide grade, resulting in improved edge life and process reliability in steel turning.
