CPGT050202-X5 WXM15 drilling/boring indexable insert — uncoated carbide, Rhombus 80°, Walter Tools

A CPGT050202-X5 WXM15 indexable insert designed for efficient drilling and bore‑spot enlarging in non‑ferrous metals, providing sharp cutting edges and controlled chip formation for production environments

• Uncoated carbide grade WXM15
• Optimised for non‑ferrous metals (N)
• Rhombic 80° cutting geometry
• 0.2 mm corner radius, 11° clearance

Faster, cleaner machining of non‑ferrous alloys

The combination of the WXM15 uncoated carbide grade and a geometry tailored to N‑materials results in noticeably improved cutting performance when working with aluminium, copper and brass. The composition of the grade provides a very sharp cutting edge with low adhesion tendency, which reduces built‑up edge and minimises interruptions in flow production. As a consequence, cycle times are shortened and finish quality is elevated without complex process changes, delivering a measurable efficiency gain for batch and continuous machining operations.

Geometry that stabilises the cut and manages chips

The Rhombus 80° shape together with the X5 chipbreaker fosters reliable chip control and consistent surface quality. The small 0.2 mm corner radius and the 11° clearance angle balance edge strength and sharpness: this improves entry behaviour in through‑holes and bore enlargements while maintaining dimensional stability. For operators with limited experience of insert geometry, the chipbreaker reduces the risk of entanglement and enables more predictable chip evacuation, which helps to avoid downtime related to chip clearing.

System compatibility and production robustness

Built for integration in the Walter N‑Sortensystem, the insert meets common industrial tolerance expectations (class G) and is available in the standard 05 size and 02 thickness, simplifying inventory planning. The uncoated design is particularly suited to applications where coating adhesion can be an issue or where coolant and lubrication strategies favour uncoated grades. The robust cutting edge geometry supports repeatable results in medium‑ to high‑volume production and contributes to reduced tool change frequency, lowering operational complexity and waste.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The CPGT050202-X5 WXM15 insert is optimised for non‑ferrous metals (ISO group N), including aluminium, copper and brass, providing low adhesion and stable cutting.

Is the insert coated?
No, this insert uses an uncoated carbide grade (WXM15), chosen to maintain sharp edges and avoid coating‑related adhesion in soft metals.

What benefits does the Rhombus 80° geometry provide?
The Rhombus 80° shape offers good edge strength for drilling and bore enlarging while allowing versatile engagement angles and consistent chip control with the X5 chipbreaker.

How does the 0.2 mm corner radius affect performance?
A 0.2 mm corner radius enhances edge durability compared with a razor edge, improving wear resistance while still enabling fine surface finishes in non‑ferrous applications.

What system does this insert belong to and what tolerance does it meet?
It is part of the Walter N‑Sortensystem and is produced to a G tolerance class, ensuring compatibility with standard indexable insert toolholders and repeatable positioning.
