Drehwendeschneidplatte DNMG110404-FM5 WSM10S – indexable turning insert with Tiger·tec Silver coating, negative 0° relief, rhombic 55° form, Walter Tools

Drehwendeschneidplatte DNMG110404-FM5 WSM10S is an indexable insert designed for turning operations in stainless steels and heat-resistant alloys, combining a robust cutting grade with a dedicated FM5 chipbreaker for predictable chip control.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for thermal stability and wear resistance
• WSM10S grade for stainless steels and superalloys
• Rhombic 55° form for versatile turning applications
• 0.4 mm corner radius for controlled edge life

Consistent results in stainless steel and superalloy turning

The combination of the WSM10S grade and the Tiger·tec Silver coating provides thermal stability and improved wear resistance when machining stainless steels and superalloys. This indexable insert is tailored to cope with materials that generate high heat and tend to work-harden; the chosen grade supports secure chip formation and helps maintain a stable cutting edge, reducing unscheduled rework and improving process reliability. The negative 0° relief geometry contributes to a robust cutting edge suited to interrupted cuts and roughing applications.

Geometry and chip control that aid productivity

A rhombic 55° form combined with the FM5 chipbreaker ensures consistent chip splitting and evacuation across a range of cutting conditions. The 0.4 mm corner radius balances strength and finish capability: it gives the edge enough bulk to resist chipping while allowing acceptable surface quality in many turning operations. For users less familiar with chipbreaker technology, this geometry reduces the need for constant parameter adjustments and supports higher metal removal rates with predictable outcomes.

Cost-effectiveness through durable materials and design

Built around a coated carbide substrate from Walter Tools, the insert emphasises long tool life and repeatable performance. The wear-resistant coating decreases flank and crater wear, meaning fewer indexings and less downtime for tool changes. Given the grade’s focus on difficult-to-cut materials, the insert supports productive machining strategies that can lower unit costs over medium to long production runs without compromising on dimensional consistency.

Practical application notes and compatibility

The insert is compatible with standard DNMG toolholders and is identified by the designation DNMG110404-FM5 WSM10S. Its form and chipbreaker suit a variety of turning tasks, from profile finishing to heavier roughing where toughness and edge stability are priorities. When integrating into a production process, consider optimising cutting speeds and feeds for the workpiece alloy; for stainless and heat-resistant alloys, strategies that avoid excessive rubbing and favour controlled cutting will extend tool life and maintain surface integrity.
