DCGT11T304-MM4 WSM01 turning insert — Rhombus 55°, 0.4 mm corner radius (Walter Tools)

A DCGT11T304-MM4 WSM01 turning insert designed for demanding machining of stainless steel and heat‑resistant superalloys, optimised for stable cutting and repeatable surface quality

• Tiger‑tec Silver series for enhanced tool life
• Suitable for stainless steel and superalloys
• Rhombic 55° geometry for versatile turning
• 0.4 mm corner radius for stable edge formation

Consistent productivity through optimised grade and geometry

The combination of the WSM01 grade within the Tiger‑tec Silver series and the MM4 chipbreaker delivers a reliable balance between wear resistance and edge stability. The insert’s Rhombus 55° form and 7° relief angle enable versatile application across longitudinal and profiling cuts while the 0.4 mm corner radius supports robust edge life. For operations where tool change intervals and process stability determine productivity, this geometry-grade pairing reduces interruptions and helps maintain cycle-time targets. The coated cemented carbide construction ensures thermal resistance and prolongs service life under elevated cutting temperatures.

Precise machining of stainless steels and superalloys with stable chip control

Designed for the ISO groups M and S, the grade is tailored to the challenges of stainless steel (M) and heat‑resistant superalloys/titanium (S). These materials typically generate high temperatures and tend to work‑harden or produce long, stringy chips; the MM4 chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation, reducing rework and tool interference. Where reliable surface finish and dimensional repeatability matter, the carbide grade’s coating supports a steady cutting edge and mitigates edge build‑up, helping to achieve consistent component quality with fewer rejects.

Seamless integration into industrial turning workflows

The insert’s standard 11 mm size and T3 thickness make it compatible with common indexable toolholders for medium to heavy turning operations. The DCGT11T304-MM4 WSM01 insert is suitable for shops aiming to improve process security without changing clamping systems: the established insert form and tolerance class G support predictable seating and repeatability. For production environments, the predictable wear behaviour of the grade simplifies tool inventory planning and reduces downtime. For additional guidance on toolholder pairing or recommended cutting data for specific alloys, Metav Werkzeuge’s application consultants can provide tailored data and parameter recommendations.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for? The DCGT11T304-MM4 WSM01 turning insert is specified for stainless steel (ISO M) and heat‑resistant superalloys/titanium (ISO S), offering stable cutting behaviour on these groups.

Which chipbreaker and geometry does the insert feature? This insert uses the MM4 chipbreaker and a Rhombus 55° geometry, designed for controlled chips and versatile turning tasks.

How does the WSM01 grade help with tough materials? The WSM01 grade in the Tiger‑tec Silver series combines a coated cemented carbide substrate with thermal stability to maintain a robust cutting edge when machining work‑hardening or heat‑generating materials.

Is this insert compatible with standard toolholders? The 11 mm size and T3 thickness conform to common indexable toolholder interfaces; confirm seat and clamping compatibility with the toolholder manufacturer or Metav Werkzeuge consultants.

How does the corner radius affect performance? A 0.4 mm corner radius enhances edge strength and supports consistent surface finish under interrupted or heavy cuts, improving reproducibility in production.
