DNGA150404TM-2 WBH10C – turning indexable insert, CBN grade for hard machining | Walter Tools

The DNGA150404TM-2 WBH10C is a rhombic 55° CBN indexable insert designed for hard turning of hardened steels and similar high-wear materials.

• CBN-coated grade WBH10C for hard materials
• Rhombus 55° geometry for versatile turning
• 0° negative rake for stable cutting
• 0.4 mm corner radius for precise profiles

Consistent edge life through CBN technology for hard turning

The WBH10C grade is a coated CBN cutting material developed specifically for applications on hardened steels and other demanding, high-wear alloys. Using cubic boron nitride as the cutting phase delivers wear resistance that preserves the cutting edge under high contact temperatures and abrasive conditions. The result is longer tool life and fewer insert changes, which reduces unproductive downtime and supports a steady production rhythm. For process planners, this means more predictable consumption and simplified tool management.

Geometry designed for reliable chip control and surface integrity

The rhombic 55° insert form combined with an integrated chipbreaker 2 promotes controlled chip formation during finishing and semi-finishing passes. The geometry provides a compromise between approach angle and radial engagement that aids dimensional stability while maintaining a favourable force distribution. The 0° negative rake increases robustness at the cutting edge, making the insert suitable for interrupted cuts or tougher workpiece conditions. As a consequence, the machining process becomes more robust against vibration and unexpected material variations.

Precision profile capability with defined corner radius

A 0.4 mm corner radius enables accurate profile generation and consistent edge rounding on turned parts, delivering repeatable contour quality without excessive burr formation. The nominal 15 insert size and standard 04 thickness provide mechanical stiffness in toolholders commonly used in production turning centres. Together these characteristics support tight tolerances and consistent surface finish, reducing the need for subsequent manual rework and improving first-pass yield.

Application fit and workshop integration

This insert series, part of the Walter CBN / Hartstoff range, is intended for hard machining tasks including pre-hardened and through-hardened steels. It is compatible with standard DNGA-type toolholders and is produced to tolerance class G, which supports interchangeability and reliable seating in clamping systems. The combination of a wear-resistant cutting grade and robust geometry makes it a practical choice for manufacturers seeking improved tool life and process stability in hard-turning applications.
