DCMT070204-MP4 WPP10G Turning Insert — Tiger·tec Gold coating for steel (P)

The DCMT070204-MP4 WPP10G is a 55° rhombic indexable insert engineered for precision and consistent performance in the turning of steel components.

• Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide for durability
• MP4 chipbreaker for reliable chip control
• Rhombic 55° geometry for versatile turning
• 0.4 mm corner radius and 7° relief angle

Consistent wear resistance for economical steel machining

The insert uses the Tiger·tec Gold coating combined with the WPP10G grade of coated carbide, delivering a balance of wear resistance and toughness that is engineered for steel. Coated carbide means a hard base material with a protective, wear-reducing layer applied; this structure reduces flank wear under the thermal and mechanical loads typical of steel turning and therefore extends tool life. As the chemistry and microstructure of the grade are optimised for heat and chip formation in steel, the insert is certified for the steel (P) material group, which covers both unalloyed and alloyed steels according to ISO classification. The result is stable performance over longer cutting intervals and fewer insert changes during production.

Controlled chips and predictable surface finish for higher throughput

The MP4 chipbreaker is designed to shape and evacuate chips reliably at a wide range of cutting parameters, which contributes directly to stable chip formation and a reduced risk of built-up edge. The combination of a 0.4 mm corner radius and a 7° relief angle promotes a consistent surface finish while keeping cutting forces within predictable limits. The Rhombic 55° form offers a favourable cutting approach angle for a variety of turning tasks, supporting both light finishing cuts and moderate interrupted cuts. These features translate into measurable benefits: fewer disruptions on the machine, improved first-pass quality and a steadier production flow.

Broad applicability and production advantages in workshop environments

Categorised for ISO P applications, the insert is suitable for general turning tasks in production and job-shop environments where process reliability and repeatability are priorities. The insert’s geometry and coated grade help to reduce cycle interruptions and minimise the need for corrective rework, improving overall productivity. Because the cutting edge is formed and coated to preserve resistance to abrasion and thermal softening, the insert supports predictable machining schedules and reduced downtime for tool changes. Compatibility with standard toolholders and systems makes integration into existing turning cells straightforward, enabling quick adoption without complex retooling.
