DCGT11T302-FM2 WMP20G turning insert — Rhombic 55°, Tiger·tec Gold for stainless steel (Walter Tools)

The DCGT11T302-FM2 WMP20G is a rhombic 55° turning insert crafted for reliable machining of rostfreie Stähle under medium to robust conditions, combining a wear-resistant coating with a chipformer tailored for secure swarf evacuation.

• Tiger·tec Gold coated for improved edge life
• Optimised for stainless steel (group M)
• FM2 chipbreaker for secure chip control
• Rhombic 55° shape, 0.2 mm corner radius

Predictable performance for stainless steel operations

The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold coating and a coated carbide substrate provides measurable advantages when working with stainless steel: improved resistance to built-up edge and enhanced wear behaviour, which helps to maintain cutting geometry over longer cycles. This stability reduces variance in part quality and minimises unscheduled tool changes, supporting consistent batch throughput and improved process reliability for series production.

Geometry that balances cutting forces and surface finish

Featuring a Rhombic 55° form with a 0.2 mm corner radius and a 7° clearance angle, the insert is shaped to reduce cutting forces while preserving tool strength at the edge. The FM2 chipbreaker assists controlled chip formation on ductile, heat-generating materials, leading to better surface integrity and reduced rework. The geometry supports predictable contact conditions, which is particularly valuable for repeatable finishing operations.

Enhanced tool life and production economy

The insert’s grade WMP20G, part of the Tiger·tec Gold series, is engineered for mid-to-heavy duty applications in the ISO M group; this translates into reliable tool life under variable cutting conditions. Fewer tool changes and consistent cutting behaviour contribute directly to lower downtime and higher overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), making the component a pragmatic choice for manufacturers seeking a balance between performance and cost-efficiency.

Practical compatibility and handling notes

Designed as a standard-sized insert, the component fits conventional indexable tooling systems that accept the DCGT profile; the T3 thickness and Rhombic 55° footprint permit use across a broad range of toolholders. For optimal results in stainless-steel turning, ensure stable workpiece clamping and appropriate cooling strategy to manage heat and extend edge life. The insert is intended for the ISO M material group and is supplied in tolerance class G, supporting predictable mounting and repeatability in multi-insert assemblies.
