DCGT11T304-FN2 WNN10 indexable turning insert by Walter Tools — Rhombic 55°, 0.4 mm corner radius

DCGT11T304-FN2 WNN10 is a coated-carbide indexable turning insert designed for general turning applications where consistent chip control and predictable surface quality are required

• Rhombic 55° insert geometry
• 7° clearance angle for smooth cuts
• 0.4 mm corner radius for finishing
• Coated carbide grade WNN10 for versatility

Predictable cutting behaviour from a defined geometry

The combination of a Rhombic 55° form and a 7° clearance creates a stable cutting geometry that supports consistent tool engagement and repeatable results. The small 0.4 mm corner radius reduces cutting forces in finish passes while maintaining edge strength for light to moderate interruption. Thanks to the FN2 chipbreaker, chip formation is guided for reliable evacuation in many turning tasks, which contributes to reduced cycle variability and more predictable component quality. These design choices translate into measurable process stability rather than vague performance claims.

Versatile grade engineered for broad machining tasks

The insert uses the WNN10 coated-carbide grade, a balanced specification aimed at combining wear resistance and edge toughness. This grade is intended for productive machining across a range of workpiece materials; the exact material suitability should be verified against the product matrix for specific alloys and hardness levels. The coating improves surface durability and helps maintain tool life during continuous operation, supporting a favourable cost-in-use profile in production-oriented environments. The result is a pragmatic balance between cutting-edge retention and reliable wear behaviour.

Robust fit and practical handling in production settings

With a size class of 11 and a plate thickness specified as T3, this indexable insert is manufactured to a tolerance class G, enabling consistent seating in standard DCGT pockets and predictable index changes. The open-series specification and clear designation facilitate stock management and assembly into tool holders for semi-finishing and finishing operations. By standardising on inserts with defined geometry and chip control, set-up time is reduced and process reproducibility improved, supporting leaner workflows and less frequent rework.

FAQ

What machining tasks is this insert intended for?
The DCGT11T304-FN2 WNN10 is intended for turning operations where a balance of surface finish and process stability is required; the FN2 chipbreaker supports controlled chip formation during finishing and light semi-finishing passes.

Is the WNN10 grade suitable for hardened steels?
The WNN10 coated-carbide grade offers a versatile performance profile, but suitability for hardened steels must be checked against the product matrix and application parameters before selection.

How does the 0.4 mm corner radius affect the finish?
A 0.4 mm corner radius improves edge robustness while enabling fine surface qualities in finish cuts; for very fine finishes, suitable feed and speed adjustments are recommended when using this insert.

Can this insert be used in standard DCGT tool holders?
The design of the DCGT11T304-FN2 WNN10 aligns with standard DCGT seating dimensions and the tolerance class G supports consistent clamping; however, verification in the specific holder is advised.

What advantage does the FN2 chipbreaker provide?
The FN2 chipbreaker guides chip flow and helps maintain stable cutting conditions, which reduces the risk of irregular chip evacuation and supports consistent finish quality with the WNN10 grade.
