CNMM190616-HU5 WMP20G – indexable turning insert by Walter Tools, Tiger·tec Gold, for stainless steel

The CNMM190616-HU5 WMP20G is an indexable turning insert designed for machining stainless steel under medium to robust conditions, combining a coated cemented carbide grade with an HU5 chipbreaker for dependable chip formation

• Tiger·tec Gold coated insert
• Suitable for stainless steel (ISO M)
• 80° rhombic geometry for versatile turning
• 1.6 mm corner radius for robust edge

Faster, more consistent machining with Tiger·tec Gold

The coated carbide grade from the Tiger·tec Gold family provides a balanced combination of wear resistance and toughness, which translates into stable cutting edges and longer tool life in demanding stainless steel applications. The insert’s coating technology reduces built-up edge and thermal softening, enabling higher cutting parameters and more productive cycles. For operators and process engineers this means fewer tool changes, reduced machine downtime and improved part consistency, particularly when machining materials prone to work hardening and smearing.

Geometry and chip control that support safe production

The 80° rhombic geometry and integrated HU5 chipbreaker are engineered to ensure controlled chip flow and predictable cutting forces during turning operations. The positive benefits include improved surface finish and reduced risk of entanglement in automatic lathes. The 1.6 mm corner radius offers a compromise between edge strength and form accuracy, making the insert suitable for a range of finishing and semi-finishing tasks. For less experienced users, a brief explanation: the chipbreaker shapes and breaks the swarf so it evacuates reliably, lowering the chance of re-cutting and tool damage.

Application focus, process reliability and economic advantages

Specified for ISO group M, the grade addresses the challenges of stainless steel—notably high ductility and heat generation—by promoting secure chip formation and consistent edge life. This reliability supports cost-effective production through fewer interruptions and predictable regrinding or insert replacement intervals. Combined with the insert’s toleranzklasse M and negative relief, the design favours dimensional stability in repetitive turning cycles. Customers prioritising throughput and repeatability will find the insert a pragmatic choice for mixed-production environments where stainless steels are processed frequently.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for? The CNMM190616-HU5 WMP20G is specified for ISO group M and is suitable for machining stainless steel under medium to robust conditions.

How does the HU5 chipbreaker affect performance? The HU5 chipbreaker on this Walter Tools insert improves chip control and evacuation, which enhances surface quality and reduces the likelihood of re-cutting chips.

What does the 1.6 mm corner radius mean for component finish? A 1.6 mm corner radius offers increased edge strength and good form stability, making the insert suitable for semi-finishing and finishing passes with consistent results.

Is the insert compatible with automatic lathes and gang-tool setups? Yes, the 80° rhombic geometry and negative relief make the insert appropriate for a variety of turning setups, including automatic lathes where predictable chip flow is essential.

Can the CNMM190616-HU5 WMP20G be used for roughing operations? While optimised for medium to robust cutting in stainless steel, the insert can be employed in heavier cuts where edge strength and chip control are required; consult cutting parameters for the specific application.
