DCMT070208-RM4 WMP20G turning insert, Tiger·tec Gold, for stainless steel – Walter Tools

A DCMT070208-RM4 WMP20G turning insert engineered for reliable, repeatable performance when machining rostfreier Stahl under medium to robust cutting conditions

• Tiger·tec Gold coating technology
• Optimised RM4 chipbreaker design
• 7° relief angle for secure cutting
• 0.8 mm corner radius for robustness

Maximise process reliability and productivity

The grade is based on Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide and the WMP20G specification, designed to improve tool life and maintain a stable cutting edge when machining stainless steel. The combination of a tailored coating and a robust substrate reduces flank wear and supports higher cutting speeds where appropriate, resulting in measurable productivity gains. In production environments where consistent cycle times and repeatable component quality are required, the coated grade and geometry contribute to fewer tool changes and a smoother production flow.

Consistent chip control for demanding stainless applications

The RM4 chipbreaker and the rhombus 55° form factor provide controlled chip formation and evacuation during turning operations on tough, heat-generating alloys. A 7° relief angle and a 0.8 mm corner radius balance strength with cutting performance, reducing the risk of build-up edge on difficult-to-machine materials. This geometry helps secure chip flow and surface finish, limiting process interruptions and supporting a stable machining window under varying cutting parameters.

Practical handling, clamping and application benefits

The insert's standard ISO designation and compact plate size make integration into established toolholders straightforward, supporting quick index changes and simple inventory management. The coated carbide composition is suited for medium to robust cutting conditions and is a reliable option where stable chip formation and edge security are priorities. Process engineers and operators benefit from reduced set-up complexity and predictability in cycle time calculations when this grade is specified for rostfreier Stahl applications.
