DCMT11T304-FW4 WSM30S – Turning insert DCMT11T304-FW4, grade WSM30S for stainless steel by Walter Tools

The DCMT11T304-FW4 WSM30S is a rhombic 55° turning insert designed for demanding stainless steel and heat‑resistant superalloy machining, combining Tiger·tec Silver coating with an FW4 chipbreaker for reliable chip control.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for heat resistance
• Designed for stainless steel and superalloys
• FW4 chipbreaker for consistent chip control
• Rhombic 55° shape with 0.4 mm corner radius

Stable machining under high thermal load

The insert’s core advantage is its Tiger·tec Silver technology paired with a WSM30S coating grade: a coated carbide formulation engineered to withstand the thermal and mechanical stresses typical of stainless steel and nickel‑based alloys. This results in increased tool life and fewer interruptions for tool changes, which in turn lowers process costs and supports longer unmanned runs. The combination of heat resistance and edge stability reduces the risk of build‑up formation and preserves component surface quality under elevated cutting temperatures.

Reliable chip control for predictable cycle times

A precisely defined FW4 chipbreaker and the rhombic 55° geometry create controlled chip segmentation across a range of feeds and depths. The moderate corner radius of 0.4 mm helps to balance cutting forces and edge strength, making the insert suitable for both roughing and semi‑finishing passes where stable chips are essential for machine safety and part consistency. Clear chip behaviour shortens cycle time variability and simplifies coolant and chip management at the machine.

Geometry and tolerances that support repeatable parts

Built to tolerance class M and provided in the execution T with plate thickness T3, this insert offers repeatable seating and predictable cutting geometry when used in appropriately matched toolholders. The 7° clearance angle (7°) and the rhombic platform ensure secure seating and stable engagement in tight radii or interrupted cuts. For production environments requiring consistent surface finishes and dimensional control, the geometry reduces vibration and helps maintain process stability from the first to the last component.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert intended for?
The DCMT11T304-FW4 WSM30S insert is specified for machining stainless steel and for heat‑resistant superalloys and titanium, matching the ISO groups M and S as noted in the technical description.

What does the WSM30S grade and Tiger·tec Silver imply?
WSM30S denotes a Walter Tools coated carbide grade in the Tiger·tec Silver family; the combination provides improved heat resistance and edge stability for high thermal loads during continuous cutting.

How does the FW4 chipbreaker influence production?
The FW4 chipbreaker ensures consistent chip segmentation and evacuation, reducing the risk of long, entangling chips and contributing to steady cycle times and safer machine operation with the DCMT11T304-FW4 geometry.

Is the corner radius suitable for finishing?
The 0.4 mm corner radius offers a compromise between edge strength and fine surface finish; for delicate finishing passes, adjustments to feed and depth will optimise surface quality while preserving tool life.

Are there special considerations for toolholder selection?
Choose a toolholder compatible with a rhombic 55° insert and ensure correct clamping to maintain the insert’s specified clearance angle and tolerance class; this supports the repeatability and process reliability expected from the WSM30S grade.
