CPGT050202M-FP2 WEP10C indexable insert – Rhombic 80° cermet insert by Walter Tools for boring and turning

CPGT050202M-FP2 WEP10C is a rhombic 80° indexable insert designed for fine finishing in light turning and bore-enlarging operations, offering cermet toughness and an FP2 chipbreaker for controlled chips

• Cermet grade WEP10C for fine finishing
• FP2 chipbreaker for stable chip control
• Rhombic 80° geometry for versatile turning
• 0.2 mm corner radius for precise edge profile

High-performance cermet grade for better finishes and longer life

The insert employs a Cermet cutting material in the WEP10C grade, which prioritises wear resistance and thermal stability for finishing passes. Cermet combines ceramic and metallic properties to retain a sharp edge at elevated cutting temperatures; this results in a more consistent surface finish and reduced frequency of index changes. The integrated FP2 chipbreaker enhances chip formation at low to medium depths of cut, contributing to predictable machining behaviour and improved process stability. These factors together support higher overall productivity and lower tooling interruptions in serial production.

Geometry and tolerance designed for predictable machining outcomes

A Rhombic 80° shape with an 11° clearance angle and 0.2 mm corner radius balances strength and accessibility for internal and external turning. The geometry yields reliable engagement when profiling or finishing, while the modest radius ensures dimensional control and a fine edge profile. The insert conforms to tolerance class G, supporting interchangeability and repeatable positioning in standard toolholders. Such dimensional consistency reduces set-up time and minimises variation between cycles, making the component suitable for quality-sensitive production runs.

Suitable process windows and application guidance from the Walter Cermet series

Belonging to the Walter Cermet series, the insert is optimised for finishing and semi-finish operations where edge retention and surface quality are decisive. Material suitability should be verified against the product matrix, since the cermet grade excels in producing fine surfaces but may require specific cutting conditions for tougher or highly alloyed workpieces. The insert’s compact 05 size and 02 thickness provide a low-profile option for confined tool pockets and multi-tasking machines, delivering flexibility across smaller turning and boring setups. For best results, combine the insert’s geometry with appropriate feeds and cutting speeds for the chosen workpiece material.

FAQ

What materials is this insert recommended for?
The CPGT050202M-FP2 WEP10C insert uses a cermet grade optimised for finishing; material suitability should be checked in the product matrix for the Walter Cermet series to confirm performance on specific alloys.

How does the FP2 chipbreaker influence machining?
The FP2 chipbreaker on the CPGT050202M-FP2 WEP10C promotes stable chip formation at low to medium depths of cut, reducing the risk of long or tangled chips and supporting consistent surface quality.

What advantage does the 0.2 mm corner radius provide?
A 0.2 mm corner radius helps achieve a fine edge profile and tight dimensional control during finishing passes, balancing edge strength with the ability to produce smooth surfaces.

Is the insert suitable for internal boring operations?
The Rhombic 80° geometry and compact thickness make the insert appropriate for many internal boring and turning setups, provided the toolholder and cutting parameters match the intended application.

What tolerance and repeatability can be expected?
The insert is manufactured to tolerance class G, supporting repeatable positioning and interchangeability in standard indexable toolholders.
