DNMG150408-MP5 WPP30G — Indexable turning insert for steel, Tiger·tec Gold (Walter Tools)

The DNMG150408-MP5 WPP30G is a rhombic 55° indexable insert engineered for reliable turning of steel, offering stable chip formation and long tool life.

• Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide
• MP5 chipbreaker for consistent chips
• Negative 0° rake for robust cutting
• 0.8 mm corner radius for medium finishing

Balanced grade for demanding steel machining

The WPP30G grade from the Tiger·tec Gold series combines a wear-resistant coating with a carbide substrate to provide a consistent balance between edge life and toughness. Designed for ISO group P (steel), the grade suits unalloyed and alloyed steels where heat and chip behaviour require a resilient coating. This balance reduces unplanned tool changes and supports steady machining cycles, contributing to higher uptime and predictable process windows.

Geometry and chip control that stabilise production

The rhombic 55° format together with a 0° (negative) rake and the MP5 chipbreaker create a geometry focused on stability and reliable chip formation. The 0.8 mm corner radius offers a compromise between strength and surface quality, allowing medium finishing passes while maintaining edge robustness. The insert's thickness and form ensure repeatable seating in toolholders and help to dampen vibration during heavier cuts, which results in improved dimensional consistency of turned components.

Practical advantages in workshop workflows

With a tolerance class M, this insert supports standard accuracy requirements for production turning. The DNMG designation reflects a widely used indexable form that fits many toolholder systems, simplifying logistics and tool management. The coated carbide design reduces flank and crater wear, extending usable life under typical steel cutting conditions. For operations seeking a reliable, general-purpose turning solution, this insert offers a pragmatic mix of longevity and process security without sacrificing surface finish.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The DNMG150408-MP5 WPP30G is specified for ISO group P and is intended for machining unalloyed and alloyed steel; the WPP30G coating optimises wear behaviour under typical steel cutting conditions.

Which chip control can be expected from this insert?
The MP5 chipbreaker offers consistent chip formation for a range of turning operations, supporting secure evacuation and reduced entanglement in common steel applications.

Is this insert compatible with standard DNMG toolholders?
Yes, the DNMG geometry corresponds to standard rhombic 55° toolholder seats, allowing easy integration into existing tool systems that accept DNMG inserts.

What surface quality can be achieved with the 0.8 mm corner radius?
A 0.8 mm corner radius provides a good compromise between edge strength and surface finish, suitable for medium finishing operations where robustness and acceptable surface quality are both required.

How does the Tiger·tec Gold grade affect tool life?
The Tiger·tec Gold coating on the WPP30G grade enhances resistance to flank and crater wear, often resulting in longer effective tool life under comparable cutting conditions.
