DNMG110408-FM5 WMP20S turning insert — Tiger·tec Silver, for stainless steel | Walter Tools

The DNMG110408-FM5 WMP20S is a rhombic 55° turning insert designed for turning applications on stainless steel in medium to robust cutting conditions.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for wear resistance
• FM5 chipbreaker for secure chip control
• Suitable for stainless steel (ISO M)
• Rhombic 55° geometry for versatile turning

Consistent performance for stainless-steel turning

The combination of the WMP20S cutting grade and the Tiger·tec Silver coating delivers improved resistance to the abrasive and adhesive wear typical of machining stainless steel. The coated cemented-carbide substrate supports a stable cutting edge, which reduces the risk of built-up edge and helps maintain component tolerances over longer production runs. This stability translates into fewer interruptions for tool changes and more predictable process windows in serial and batch production.

Controlled chips and reliable surface quality

Equipped with the FM5 chipbreaker and a rhombic 55° form, the insert promotes predictable chip formation and evacuation under medium to robust conditions. The geometry and chip control work together to lower the chance of chip entanglement and protect the workpiece surface, resulting in a consistent surface finish and reduced secondary operations. For machining centres and lathes where uptime and repeatability matter, this results in measurable productivity gains.

Easy integration into production processes

The neutral to negative rake condition (0° negative) and a corner radius of 0.8 mm offer a balance between edge robustness and dimensional control. The insert’s form and grade are suitable for a variety of turning tasks on stainless steel, from light profiling to heavier roughing cuts. Straightforward toolholder compatibility and the proven Tiger·tec Silver series make this insert an efficient choice when standardising tool inventories across machining cells.
