DCMW11T304-RK6 WKK10S – Indexable turning insert, Tiger·tec Silver for cast iron, Walter Tools

The DCMW11T304-RK6 WKK10S is a 55° rhombic indexable insert engineered for efficient turning of cast iron, featuring an RK6 chipbreaker and a 7° clearance angle for stable cutting performance

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for wear resistance
• Optimised RK6 chipbreaker for cast iron
• Rhombic 55° geometry for adaptable tool setups
• 7° clearance angle for secure cutting action

Improved wear resistance for abrasive cast-iron work

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WKK10S grade delivers consistent resistance to abrasive wear typical of cast-iron machining. This coating technology increases tool life under interrupted and short-chip conditions, which means fewer index changes and more uninterrupted production time. The insert, as a coated carbide solution, resists flank and crater wear better than uncoated grades, translating into predictable tool performance and reduced tooling costs per component.

Stable chip control and reliable process security

With the RK6 chipbreaker and a geometry optimised for brittle chip forms, the insert ensures controlled chip breakage during heavy or interrupted cuts in cast iron. The combination of chip formation and the rhombic 55° shape reduces the risk of chip entanglement and improves surface quality. As a result, cycle times become more reproducible and machine downtimes decrease, supporting higher overall productivity in series production.

Flexible geometry for diverse turning tasks

The 55° rhombic form and a 0.4 mm corner radius provide a balance between edge strength and detail fidelity. This geometry enables secure positioning in common tool holders and allows both light finishing passes and more robust roughing cuts when required. The 7° clearance angle reduces rubbing on the flank face, lowering cutting forces and thermal load on the edge—factors that help maintain dimensional accuracy and repeatable surface finishes across batches.

Engineered for cast-iron applications with production in mind

Designed specifically for the material group K (cast iron), the grade's microstructure and coating system are tuned to the abrasive nature and chip characteristics of grey and nodular irons. This targeted design reduces the need for over-engineered parameters and supports a lean machining approach: lower cutting forces, improved edge life and predictable wear progression. The insert supports manufacturers who prioritise throughput and consistent quality in cast-iron turning operations.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
This turning insert is specified for cast iron materials; the WKK10S grade and Tiger·tec Silver coating are optimised for the abrasive and short-chip behaviour of cast iron.

Can the insert handle interrupted cuts and roughing?
Yes, the combination of the RK6 chipbreaker and a 0.4 mm corner radius provides edge strength and chip control suitable for interrupted cuts and productive roughing operations.

Which toolholders are compatible with the rhombic 55° geometry?
Standard toolholders designed for 55° rhombic inserts accept this geometry; ensure the clamping seat matches the DCMW form and tolerance class M for secure seating.

How does the Tiger·tec Silver coating benefit production runs?
The Tiger·tec Silver coating reduces abrasive wear and stabilises cutting-edge life, which lowers the frequency of index changes and improves process reproducibility in series machining.

Is this an original Walter Tools product and suitable for industrial use?
The DCMW11T304-RK6 WKK10S is an original Walter Tools indexable insert produced for industrial turning of cast iron and intended for professional use in machining environments.
