DNMG150404-FM5 WSM10S – Indexable turning insert, Tiger·tec Silver, 0° negative rake (Walter Tools)

The DNMG150404-FM5 WSM10S is an indexable turning insert with a rhombic 55° geometry, designed for demanding turning of stainless steel and heat‑resistant superalloys.

• Tiger·tec Silver coated carbide grade WSM10S
• Optimised for stainless steel and superalloys
• Rhombic 55° geometry for versatile turning
• 0.4 mm corner radius for robust edge life

High‑performance grade for tough materials and consistent productivity

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WSM10S grade yields a coated carbide with emphasis on thermal resistance and wear control. This translates into improved process stability when facing materials that tend to workharden or generate high cutting temperatures. Built for hard‑to‑cut alloys, the insert supports predictable tool life and reduced scrap rates, helping to lower overall machining costs while maintaining component quality.

Geometry and edge strength that reduce downtime

The rhombic 55° shape and 0° negative rake geometry deliver a robust cutting edge suited to interrupted cuts and heavier engagement. With a 0.4 mm corner radius and the FM5 chipbreaker, the insert encourages stable chip formation and stronger edge retention. In practice, this means fewer insert changes, less machine downtime and consistent surface finish during serial production—advantages that improve throughput and operational efficiency.

Application flexibility and tool‑holder compatibility

Intended for turning operations on stainless steel and S‑group alloys, the grade offers versatility across typical workshop set‑ups; the geometry fits common toolholders and can be integrated into existing tool systems without modification. The FM5 chipbreaking design balances chip control and cutting force, making the insert suitable for both roughing passes and light finishing, depending on cutting data. For specific feed and speed recommendations, technical advice is available to match the grade to the machine and material.
