DCGT070204-FM2 WSM10S turning insert – rhombic 55° form, Tiger‑tec Silver coating (Walter Tools)

A DCGT070204-FM2 WSM10S is a rhombic 55° turning insert engineered for machining stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys in demanding turning operations.

• Tiger‑tec Silver coating, heat resistance
• Suited to stainless steels and superalloys
• FM2 chipbreaker for secure chip control
• Rhombic 55° form, 0.4 mm corner radius

Consistent performance when machining demanding alloys

The coated carbide grade WSM10S from the Tiger‑tec Silver family is developed for components that challenge the cutting edge. Its microstructure and coating combine to resist thermal assault and reduce edge wear, delivering consistent cutting performance when turning stainless steels and heat‑resistant alloys. The FM2 chipbreaker supports stable chip formation, which reduces the risk of built-up edge and minimises interruptions to the production flow. This section focuses on measurable gains in process reliability rather than abstract claims.

Edge stability and geometry for reliable surface quality

A rhombic 55° geometry with a 0.4 mm corner radius and 7° relief provides a balance between strength and finishing capability. The moderate corner radius improves tool life under interrupted cuts, while the geometry supports predictable chip flow and good surface finish in most finishing and semi‑finishing operations. For customers requiring repeatable surface integrity, the combination of geometry and the FM2 chipbreaker offers a technical route to reduced rework and more efficient downstream processing.

Selection guidance and practical application tips

Choose the insert when parts are made from materials classified under ISO group M (rostfreie Stähle) or S (heat‑resistant superalloys and titanium); the grade is optimised to cope with adhesion and heat concentration typical of these groups. When deploying the insert in serial production, monitor cutting speeds and feed rates to match the grade’s thermal capacity: moderate increases in speed can be used where coolant and machine stability allow. For application advice or compatibility checks with existing toolholders and turning strategies, Metav Werkzeuge’s specialists can assist with cutting data and process integration.

FAQ

What materials is this insert designed to machine?
The DCGT070204-FM2 WSM10S from Walter Tools is designed for ISO groups M and S — primarily stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys (including titanium) where thermal resistance and stable chip control are required.

How does the FM2 chipbreaker affect machining?
The FM2 chipbreaker on this insert promotes predictable chip formation and evacuation, which reduces the incidence of built‑up edge and helps maintain consistent surface quality during interrupted and continuous turning.

What role does the Tiger‑tec Silver coating play?
The Tiger‑tec Silver coating increases thermal resistance and improves wear behaviour, extending tool life under higher cutting temperatures typical for machining rostfreie Stähle and superalloys.

Is the 0.4 mm corner radius suitable for finishing?
A 0.4 mm corner radius offers a balance between strength and finish capability; it is appropriate for many finishing and light semi‑finishing operations while improving edge robustness in tougher cuts.

Can this insert be used with common Walter toolholders?
The insert matches standard indexable turning holders that accept DCGT‑style rhombic 55° plates; for exact holder compatibility and clamping recommendations, consult Metav Werkzeuge’s technical team.
