DNMG150408-RM5 WSM30S turning insert – Tiger·tec Silver, for stainless steels and superalloys (Walter Tools)

A DNMG150408-RM5 WSM30S indexable turning insert engineered for demanding applications in stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys, offering a rhombic 55° geometry and a stable chip control system

• Tiger·tec Silver coated carbide grade WSM30S
• Optimised for stainless steels and superalloys
• Rhombic 55° geometry, 0.8 mm corner radius
• Negative 0° rake, robust chipbreaker RM5

Consistent cutting performance for tough alloys

The WSM30S grade, part of the Tiger·tec Silver family, delivers a balanced combination of wear resistance and edge toughness optimised for machining stainless steels and high‑temperature alloys. The coated cemented carbide substrate supports secure chip formation and prevents rapid edge breakdown under thermal stress. By choosing a coated grade with proven heat resistance, production runs benefit from fewer interruptions and more consistent component tolerances, which lowers rework and increases process reliability.

Geometry and edge details that improve productivity

This insert’s rhombic 55° shape and 0.8 mm corner radius are designed to offer a controlled cutting action and predictable tool forces in turning operations. The RM5 chipbreaker channels chips efficiently for medium to heavy cuts, reducing the risk of built‑up edge on difficult materials. The negative 0° rake increases edge support and improves tool life in interrupted cuts or unstable setups, making the geometry particularly suitable for roughing and transferring to finishing passes with stable results.

Application focus and practical advantages at the machine

With a material designation for groups M and S, the insert is aimed at workshops that process stainless steels as well as heat‑resistant superalloys and titanium. The coated surface lowers friction, improving surface finish while the grade’s toughness guards against chipping in short‑chipping materials. For machine shops seeking predictable performance, this combination fosters higher utilisation rates and reduced tooling changes per batch. The technical specification supports selection for both conventional turning and CNC operations where consistent repeatability is required.
