DCMT070204-FP4 WPP10G turning insert — Tiger‑tec Gold coated, FP4 chipbreaker | Walter Tools

A DCMT070204-FP4 WPP10G turning insert engineered for efficient steel turning, offering controlled chip formation and enhanced tool life thanks to its Tiger‑tec Gold technology.

• Rhombus 55° cutting geometry
• Tiger‑tec Gold coated carbide
• FP4 chipbreaker for stable chips
• 7° clearance and 0.4 mm radius

Maximum performance with predictable tool life

The DCMT070204-FP4 WPP10G combines a wear‑resistant Tiger‑tec Gold coating with a robust grade designed for steel turning. The coated carbide construction provides high abrasion resistance and thermal stability, which reduces flank wear and prolongs edge life. As a result, machining cycles run longer between indexings, decreasing downtime and contributing to a lower cost per part without compromising productivity or repeatability.

Consistent chip control and improved surface quality

The integrated FP4 chipbreaker is optimised for the cut conditions typical when machining steel (ISO P). It promotes short, controllable chips and reduces the risk of built‑up edge, which in turn improves surface finish and protects the workpiece geometry. For shops seeking reliable repeatability, the combination of chipformer design and coated substrate supports stable cutting forces and consistent results across varying batch sizes.

Clear application scope and material compatibility

This grade is specifically matched to steel machining requirements and is suitable for a broad range of steel alloys, including both unalloyed and alloyed steels. The insert’s designation highlights suitability for ISO P materials, meaning the geometry and coating were chosen to manage the heat and chip formation typical for these alloys. Selecting this insert helps to standardise tool setups for steel turning operations and simplifies process planning.

Easy integration and robust cutting geometry

The Rhombus 55° geometry with a 7° clearance angle and a 0.4 mm corner radius offers a balance between strength and cutting accessibility. The moderate corner radius provides edge reinforcement for interrupted cuts while still enabling fine finishing passes. The insert’s construction and tolerance class M ensure straightforward mounting in common tool holders and predictable positioning, helping to accelerate tool changeovers and maintain machine uptime.
