Take advantage of the WSM01 grade and Tiger-tec Silver series for consistent performance when turning stainless steels and heat‑resistant alloys; the MS3 chipbreaker stabilises chip flow while the 1.2 mm corner radius extends edge life, enabling reliable, productive machining — order directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult the technical team for application-specific advice.

CNMG190612-MS3 WSM01 — Rhombic 80° indexable insert by Walter Tools (Tiger‑tec Silver)

The CNMG190612-MS3 WSM01 is a rhombic 80° turning insert designed for reliable cutting performance in stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys, combining a coated‑carbide grade with a robust chipbreaker.

• Tiger‑tec Silver coating for extended tool life
• WSM01 grade optimised for stainless and superalloys
• MS3 chipbreaker for stable chip control
• Rhombic 80° geometry with 1.2 mm corner radius

Consistent performance in difficult‑to‑machine materials

The combination of the Tiger‑tec Silver series and the WSM01 coated carbide grade delivers enhanced wear resistance and consistent edge behaviour when facing the thermal and mechanical challenges of stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys. The coating reduces flank wear and supports repeatable cutting conditions, which translates directly into longer tool life and fewer insert changes on the shop floor. For production environments where downtime must be minimised, this results in measurable gains in machine availability and process throughput.

Stable chip control for safer turning operations

Equipped with the MS3 chipbreaker, the insert ensures predictable chip formation and evacuation during turning. Stable chips reduce tool nose contact and secondary damage to the workpiece, improving surface integrity and lowering the risk of built‑up edge. The rhombic 80° shape and 1.2 mm corner radius balance strength and edge sharpness, permitting secure entry into interrupted cuts and maintaining dimensional stability across longer runs.

Geometry and mounting that support machining efficiency

The negative 0° clearance geometry contributes to a rigid cutting interface and robust cutting edge support, which is particularly beneficial when machining tough, sticky materials that tend to work‑harden. The standard CNMG format offers broad compatibility with common toolholders, simplifying inventory and changeover. Together, these design choices improve process reliability, reduce vibration sensitivity and support consistent surface finish quality in series production.

Application guidance and expected benefits

As a coated, high‑performance turning insert from Walter Tools’ Tiger‑tec Silver family, this grade is intended for operations where thermal load and edge stability are critical. The insert is particularly suited to machining stainless steels (ISO group M) and heat‑resistant alloys or titanium (ISO group S), offering sensible tool life, stable chip formation and predictable productivity. For customers seeking to standardise on a single insert family across similar materials, this solution reduces tooling complexity while maintaining high process security.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The CNMG190612‑MS3 WSM01 insert is designed for stainless steels (ISO group M) and heat‑resistant superalloys or titanium (ISO group S); the Tiger‑tec Silver coating and WSM01 grade support stable cutting in these materials.

Which chipbreaker is integrated and what advantage does it offer?
The insert features the MS3 chipbreaker, which promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation, enhancing surface finish and reducing the risk of built‑up edge during turning.

How does the 1.2 mm corner radius influence performance?
A 1.2 mm corner radius provides a balance between edge strength and cutting sharpness, improving durability in interrupted cuts and contributing to consistent dimensional accuracy.

Is the insert compatible with standard CNMG toolholders?
Yes, the CNMG190612 format conforms to common CNMG toolholders, simplifying holder selection and reducing tooling variants in the workshop.

Can this insert be used for finishing as well as roughing?
The geometry and grade allow both roughing and medium finishing operations; for fine finishing, select appropriate cutting parameters and verify surface requirements in trial cuts.
