DNMG150404-MP5 WPP10G Turning Insert — Tiger·tec Gold coating, for steel | Walter Tools

The DNMG150404-MP5 WPP10G is a rhombic 55° turning insert engineered for efficient steel machining with an MP5 chipbreaker and a durable Tiger·tec Gold coating.

Tiger·tec Gold coated for long life
MP5 chipbreaker for stable chip control
Rhombic 55° form for versatile turning
0° negative rake with 0.4 mm corner radius

Boosted productivity through reliable cutting performance

The combination of a Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide grade and a dedicated MP5 chipbreaker delivers consistent cutting results in steel machining. The coating enhances wear resistance and thermal stability, which translates into longer tool life and fewer interruptions for insert changes. The stable chip formation enabled by the chipbreaker reduces the risk of built-up edge and machine downtime, allowing more parts to be produced per shift and improving overall process efficiency.

Precision geometry for consistent dimensional results

The rhombic 55° insert shape and 0.4 mm corner radius are selected to balance strength and finish. This geometry provides the rigidity required for medium to finishing operations while maintaining a controlled cutting edge that supports predictable tool engagement. For shops seeking reproducible component quality, the insert’s tolerance class M and negative rake angle of 0° help maintain cutting forces and dimensional stability during serial turning of steels.

Adapted grade and coating for steel applications

The WPP10G grade belongs to Walter’s Tiger·tec Gold family and is optimised for machining steels (ISO group P). The grade composition and coating combination are designed for the typical heat generation and chip behaviour encountered when machining unalloyed and alloyed steels. In practical terms, that means improved resistance to flank and crater wear and a broader processing window for cutting speeds and feeds compared with uncoated alternatives.

Practical benefits in everyday turning operations

As a medium-profile turning insert with the MP5 groove, this product simplifies chip handling and is suited to a range of turning tasks where stable chips and surface quality matter. The insert’s dimensions and form make it compatible with common CNMG/DNMG toolholders that accept a rhombic 55° plate, enabling quick integration into existing toolsets and minimal setup time. The result is a cost-effective upgrade path for workshops aiming to increase throughput without major changes to fixturing or programmes.

FAQ

What materials is this insert designed for?
The DNMG150404-MP5 WPP10G is designed primarily for machining steels (ISO group P); the WPP10G grade and Tiger·tec Gold coating are optimised for typical steel heat and chip conditions.

Which chipbreaker does the insert use and what is its benefit?
This insert uses the MP5 chipbreaker, which ensures controlled chip formation and evacuation, improving process stability and reducing the risk of built-up edge during turning.

What are the key geometry features to consider for setup?
The rhombic 55° shape, 15 mm size, 0.4 mm corner radius and 0° negative rake together determine the insert’s cutting engagement and are important when selecting a compatible toolholder and setting cutting parameters.
