DNMG150408-MP3 WPP30G – Turning indexable insert, Tiger‑tec Gold coated, for steel by Walter Tools

DNMG150408-MP3 WPP30G is a rhombic 55° turning insert designed for steel machining, combining a Tiger‑tec Gold coated carbide grade with the MP3 chipbreaker for reliable chip control

• Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide grade WPP30G
• Rhombic 55° shape for versatile turning
• 0.8 mm corner radius for robust edge strength
• Designed for steel machining with MP3 chipbreaker

High‑performance coating for longer, more consistent tool life

The coated carbide grade WPP30G, part of the Tiger‑tec Gold family, is engineered for steel machining and compensates for the high temperatures and distinctive chip formation behaviour encountered in such operations. As a coated carbide insert, it delivers a notable compromise between wear resistance and toughness, which translates into stable edge life and predictable component quality under continuous cutting. The series description highlights suitability for unalloyed and alloyed steels according to ISO group P, offering an application‑orientated solution for both roughing and finishing where consistent productivity is required.

Geometry and chip control that support productivity and surface quality

The rhombic 55° geometry and the MP3 chipbreaker combine to provide a controlled cutting action and reliable chip formation when machining steels. The insert’s 0° (negative) clearance angle contributes to a robust cutting edge suitable for intermittent cuts or heavier engagement, while the 0.8 mm corner radius increases resistance to chipping and supports steady surface finish performance. Together, these features reduce the need for frequent index changes and make the insert a practical choice for varied turning tasks where tool stability and repeatable quality are priorities.

Application range, handling and workshop benefits

Marked as a P‑grade solution for steel workpieces, this turning insert suits a broad spectrum of steels and typical turning operations. The MP3 chipbreaker is optimised for reliable swarf control in these materials, lowering the risk of recutting and improving cycle time consistency. As a standardised indexable insert, it fits established toolholders and can be integrated into existing turning processes without additional fixture investment. The combination of geometry, coating and grade supports operational efficiency and helps reduce unplanned downtime through fewer insert changes and more uniform tool performance.
