CNMM160616-HU3 WPP05G — Turning insert CNMM160616‑HU3 for Stahl, Tiger‑tec Gold by Walter Tools

A CNMM160616‑HU3 WPP05G rhombic 80° indexable insert engineered for general turning of Stahl, featuring a HU3 chipbreaker and a 0° negative rake for predictable chip control

• Tiger‑tec Gold coated grade WPP05G
• Suitable for Stahl machining
• 1.6 mm corner radius, 80° rhombic
• HU3 chipbreaker for controlled chips

Consistent chip formation for uninterrupted production

The combination of the HU3 chipbreaker and the rhombic 80° geometry produces regular, manageable chips during longitudinal and facing operations. With a 1.6 mm corner radius and 0° negative rake, this insert reduces vibration and contributes to a stable cutting process; the result is less unplanned stoppage and more predictable cycle times. The controlled chip flow also minimises the risk of rework, which leads to measurable gains in process efficiency and throughput.

Durable coating for lower tooling costs per part

Designed in the WPP05G grade within the Tiger‑tec Gold family, the insert features a coated carbide substrate optimised for the heat and chip characteristics of Stahl. The coating improves wear resistance and extends edge life, meaning fewer indexings and reduced tooling consumption over the life of a job. This higher durability translates directly into a lower cost per component when compared with uncoated or less advanced grades, especially in medium-duty turning where material build-up and temperature spikes are common.

Geometry and tolerance for reliable surface quality

With a compact plate size and a tolerance class M, the insert delivers consistent geometry across batches, supporting reproducible part quality and easy tool‑holder set‑up. The combination of rhombic form and the specified corner radius helps achieve good surface finishes even in variable feed conditions, while the insert’s dimensions and thickness make it compatible with standard turning tool holders. These attributes together support stable machining strategies and faster ramp‑up times on new programmes.

Application support for optimised results

When selecting cutting data, the insert’s behaviour in Stahl should guide feeds and speeds to balance tool life and productivity. Trial cuts under representative conditions will quickly show the best compromise for a given machine and alloy. Metav Werkzeuge can supply recommended starting parameters and help interpret in‑process observations to refine settings, ensuring the insert performs to its potential across batch and continuous production environments.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?

The CNMM160616‑HU3 WPP05G insert is designed primarily for machining Stahl; the WPP05G grade and Tiger‑tec Gold coating are optimised for the thermal and chip conditions typical of steel turning.

How does the HU3 chipbreaker affect machining?

The HU3 chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation, which reduces the likelihood of entanglement and supports consistent surface finish and stable cycle times when using the CNMM160616‑HU3 geometry.

Can this insert be used for finishing operations?

With a 1.6 mm corner radius and the rhombic 80° form, the insert offers a balance between edge strength and surface quality, making it suitable for medium finishing passes in Stahl where a robust edge is required.

What are the main advantages of the Tiger‑tec Gold coating?

Tiger‑tec Gold in the WPP05G grade provides enhanced wear resistance and thermal stability, extending tool life and improving productivity in turning applications of Stahl.
