DCMT11T302-FP4 WKP01G indexable turning insert — Tiger‑tec Gold for steel & cast iron | Walter Tools

The DCMT11T302-FP4 WKP01G is an indexable turning insert engineered for medium-duty finishing and semi-finishing of steel and cast iron, combining a Tiger‑tec Gold coated grade with a 0.2 mm nose radius.

• Tiger‑tec Gold coated grade WKP01G
• FP4 chipbreaker for controlled chips
• 0.2 mm nose radius for fine finishes
• Rhombus 55° shape for versatile turning

Consistent performance through advanced coating technology

The Tiger‑tec Gold coating and the WKP01G grade deliver a durable, coated carbide that resists abrasive and adhesive wear during serial production. This coating optimises thermal stability and edge retention, which reduces frequency of index changes and supports longer tool life under typical steel (P) and cast iron (K) conditions according to ISO 513. For production environments seeking predictable cycle times and fewer interruptions, the coated grade represents a practical balance between performance and cost-efficiency.

Geometry that supports precision and surface quality

The Rhombus 55° form with a 0.2 mm nose radius and 7° clearance offers a geometry tuned for close-tolerance turning and fine surface finishes. The small nose radius helps achieve precise contours and reduced cutting forces in finishing passes, while the 55° shape provides good access for a wide range of internal and external turning tasks. The tolerance class M and T3 thickness ensure repeatable seating in standard toolholders, promoting consistent results across tool changes.

Reliable chip control and stable cutting behaviour

The FP4 chipbreaker is designed to produce short, controlled chips in both steel and cast iron applications. Reduced chip length and predictable breakage minimise interruptions and contribute to safer machine operation. Stable chip formation also helps maintain the integrity of the cutting edge and lowers the risk of built-up edge, which together increase process security and can improve overall productivity on batch and continuous turning operations.

Practical application advice and process fit

This insert suits users requiring dependable finishing performance on steels and grey or nodular cast irons where coated carbide grades are preferred. The designation indicates compatibility with ISO material groups P and K; selection should be aligned with workpiece grade, cutting parameters and holder geometry. For tailored recommendations regarding speeds, feeds and tooling arrangements, Metav Werkzeuge’s technical consultants provide application support and detailed data to integrate the insert effectively into existing machining processes.
