DCGT11T308-MP4 WPP20G turning indexable insert — Tiger‑tec Gold, for steel — Walter Tools

The DCGT11T308-MP4 WPP20G is a rhombic 55° turning insert with Tiger‑tec Gold coating, designed for efficient machining of steels (ISO P).

• Tiger·tec Gold coated grade WPP20G
• Rhombic 55° geometry, 0.8 mm corner radius
• Optimised chip control with MP4 breaker
• 7° clearance angle for consistent cutting
• Suitable for steel machining (ISO P)

Longer tool life and stable cutting through advanced coating

The combination of the Tiger‑tec Gold coating and the WPP20G grade provides increased wear resistance and thermal stability, resulting in more consistent cutting performance and fewer tool changes. Coated carbide technology reduces flank wear and edge degradation during medium to high cutting speeds, which supports a measurable improvement in productivity and repeatability for serial and batch production. This technical advantage is particularly relevant where process reliability and surface quality are critical.

Improved chip formation and reduced cycle times with MP4 design

The MP4 chipbreaker and the rhombic 55° geometry offer controlled chip segmentation and reliable evacuation, minimising interruptions caused by poor chip flow. With a 0.8 mm corner radius and the Rhombus 55° form, the insert balances strength at the cutting edge with the ability to produce stable cuts across varied steel grades. The result is a reduction in secondary operations and shorter cycle times through fewer tool interventions, which directly benefits overall machining efficiency.

Robust geometry and straightforward integration for steel applications

With a 7° clearance angle and T3 plate thickness, the insert is dimensioned for secure seating in standard toolholders and for robust contact under typical turning loads. Classified for steel (ISO P), the design addresses common challenges in steel turning—heat development and chip control—by pairing the coating and grade with a geometry that resists chipping and maintains surface finish. The insert is suitable for versatile turning tasks, from light finishing to productive semi‑finishing, offering a practical balance of performance and tool life.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited for?
The DCGT11T308-MP4 WPP20G insert is designed for machining steels (ISO P) and is optimised for the heat and chip formation typical of steel turning.

How does the Tiger‑tec Gold coating benefit production?
Tiger‑tec Gold on the WPP20G grade provides enhanced wear resistance and thermal stability, which extends insert life and supports consistent surface quality in serial machining.

What does the MP4 chipbreaker do?
The MP4 chipbreaker improves chip segmentation and evacuation, reducing the risk of tangled chips and helping to maintain uninterrupted machining cycles.

Is the geometry suitable for both roughing and finishing?
Yes, the rhombic 55° form with a 0.8 mm corner radius offers a compromise of cutting edge strength and versatility that supports semi‑finishing and light finishing operations.

Can this insert be used in standard toolholders?
The DCGT11T308-MP4 WPP20G is dimensioned for conventional turning toolholders that accept rhombic 55° indexable inserts and T3 thicknesses.
