DCMT070204-FK6 WKK10S WKK10S Wendeplatten - Walter Tools

Take advantage of the combination of Tiger‑tec Silver coating and the WKK10S grade for abrasion resistance and predictable wear, plus the FK6 chipbreaker that improves chip control during cast iron turning; order supply and technical consultation via Metav Werkzeuge when required.

DCMT070204-FK6 WKK10S indexable turning insert (for cast iron) — Walter Tools, Tiger‑tec Silver, 7° clearance

The DCMT070204-FK6 WKK10S is an indexable turning insert engineered for reliable cast iron machining, offering a coated‑carbide grade in the Tiger‑tec Silver series with FK6 chip control.

• Tiger‑tec Silver coating for abrasion resistance
• Optimised for cast iron (ISO K) machining
• Rhombic 55° geometry, 7° clearance angle
• 0.4 mm corner radius for consistent finishes

Increased productivity through a wear‑resistant grade and predictable edge life

The combination of the WKK10S coated‑carbide grade and the Tiger‑tec Silver technology delivers a high level of abrasion resistance specifically tailored to abrasive cast iron alloys. This results in stable cutting-edge behaviour and fewer unexpected tool changes, which supports continuous production. The coated microstructure reduces flank wear under typical interrupted cuts associated with grey and spheroidal graphite cast iron, so machining cycles become more predictable and planning of tool change intervals is simplified.

Geometry designed for repeatable finishes and tool stability

A Rhombic 55° seat paired with a 7° clearance angle provides a balanced engagement between insert and workpiece, reducing cutting forces and improving nest fit in standard toolholders. The 0.4 mm corner radius supports a consistent surface condition while maintaining robust edge strength for finishing passes; the tolerance class M ensures dimensional conformity across batches. These geometric choices translate into fewer rejects, more consistent surface quality and straightforward integration into existing insert‑based turning systems.

Efficient chip control and straightforward implementation in production

The FK6 chipbreaker is optimised for the typically short, brittle chips produced from cast iron, promoting secure evacuation and minimising recutting. This improves process stability on both single‑piece and serial turning operations. Compatibility with common indexable‑insert toolholders means installation is immediate, and the insert’s characteristics contribute to lower overall tooling costs through extended useful life and reduced downtime.

FAQ

What materials is this insert designed for?
The DCMT070204-FK6 WKK10S insert is optimised for cast iron (ISO K) applications and the WKK10S grade is tuned for abrasive wear resistance in those materials.

How does the FK6 chipbreaker affect machining?
The FK6 chipbreaker on this Walter Tools insert promotes short, controlled chips typical of cast iron, improving chip evacuation and reducing the risk of recutting.

Which toolholders are compatible with the insert geometry?
Standard toolholders accepting a Rhombic 55° DCMT insert will accommodate the DCMT070204-FK6 WKK10S; the geometry and tolerance class M ensure reliable seating in common pockets.

What performance benefit does Tiger‑tec Silver provide?
The Tiger‑tec Silver coating enhances abrasion resistance and lengthens effective tool life on abrasive cast iron grades, providing more consistent edge stability across production runs.

Is technical advice available for application optimisation?
Yes, Metav Werkzeuge can advise on cutting data and tool‑holder pairing for the DCMT070204-FK6 WKK10S to ensure optimal process reliability.
