DNMG110408-FP5 WKP01G indexable turning insert – Rhomb 55°, Tiger‑tec Gold (Walter Tools)

A DNMG110408-FP5 WKP01G indexable turning insert designed for precision turning of steel and cast iron, combining a Tiger‑tec Gold coating with an FP5 chipbreaker for reliable chip control and extended tool life

• Tiger‑tec Gold coating for high wear resistance
• Suitable for steel (P) and cast iron (K) machining
• Rhomb 55° geometry for versatile turning operations
• 0.8 mm corner radius with 0° negative relief

Increased process reliability through advanced coating and grade

The combination of the Tiger‑tec Gold coating and the WKP01G grade yields excellent wear resistance and consistent edge stability under thermal load. Designed for both steel and cast iron (ISO groups P and K), the insert resists abrasive wear and maintains cutting performance during extended cycles. The specialised coating also reduces adhesive build-up, which improves repeatability and reduces unplanned rework. For production environments that prioritise uptime, this means fewer indexings and steadier component tolerances.

Geometry and chip control that improve surface finish

The Rhomb 55° shape and FP5 chipbreaker deliver a balance between strength and accessibility at various cutting depths. A 0.8 mm corner radius supports a robust cutting edge that reduces the tendency to form chatter while still enabling fine surface finishes. The negative relief at 0° increases edge strength for heavier cuts and interrupted turning. Together, these geometry choices translate into more reliable finishing passes and reduced need for secondary operations, boosting throughput without compromising component quality.

Compatibility and practical benefits for workshop integration

Marked as DNMG110408-FP5 and supplied in tolerance class M, the insert fits standard DNMG toolholders and can be indexed quickly to restore cutting performance. The FP5 chipbreaker is optimised for medium to stable chip forms, which simplifies chip evacuation in automated setups. With predictable flank wear and stable cutting conditions, tool change intervals become easier to schedule, supporting leaner inventory and more efficient production planning. The overall result is a cost-effective, easy-to-integrate solution for mixed batches of steel and cast iron parts.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The DNMG110408-FP5 WKP01G insert is suitable for machining steel (P) and cast iron (K), reflecting the WKP01G grade design for both material groups.

Which toolholders are compatible with this insert?
This indexable insert follows the DNMG designation and fits standard DNMG toolholders that accept rhombic 55° turning inserts.

How does the FP5 chipbreaker affect cutting performance?
The FP5 chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation under typical turning conditions, improving process security and reducing the risk of chip entanglement.

When should the insert be indexed or replaced?
Indexing or replacement is recommended when flank wear or edge chipping visibly affects surface finish or dimensional accuracy; routine inspection intervals depend on component tolerances and machining conditions.

Is this insert suitable for interrupted cuts?
Yes, the combination of a 0° negative relief and a 0.8 mm corner radius provides increased edge strength for interrupted or heavy cuts.
