DNMG150608-MW5 WKK10S — Indexable turning insert, Tiger·tec Silver, for cast iron (Walter Tools)

A DNMG150608-MW5 WKK10S indexable turning insert designed to deliver stable chip formation and long tool life in cast-iron machining with a Rhombic 55° geometry.

• Tiger·tec Silver coated carbide for wear resistance
• Optimised for cast iron (ISO group K)
• Rhombic 55° shape with 0° negative rake
• 0.8 mm corner radius and MW5 chipbreaker

Productivity gains from advanced coating and grade

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WKK10S carbide grade yields a marked improvement in abrasive-wear resistance, which translates into longer tool life and fewer insert changes on the machine. As a result, cycle times benefit from sustained cutting parameters and reduced downtime. Highlighted here is the rational advantage: fewer tool interventions mean a measurable increase in production efficiency and predictable process behaviour when machining cast-iron components.

Reliable chip control and geometry for consistent results

Configured with the MW5 chipbreaker, a Rhombic 55° form and a 0° negative rake, the insert offers controlled chip breaking in the typically short, brittle chips of cast iron. The 0.8 mm corner radius provides a compromise between edge strength and achievable surface finish, helping to maintain dimensional accuracy during facing and light turning operations. This combination supports stable cutting forces and simplifies process set-up, particularly for repetitive series production.

Practical handling and predictable economy in the workshop

The insert’s specification (size 15, thickness 06) and tolerance class M ensure compatibility with common toolholders and predictable fitting behaviour during re-clamping. The grade’s focus on abrasive resistance and stable chip formation reduces unexpected edge wear, which improves first-pass yield and total cost per part.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The DNMG150608-MW5 WKK10S insert from Walter Tools is optimised for cast iron (ISO group K) and its chipbreaker and grade are tailored for the abrasive wear and short chips typical of these materials.

Which chipbreaker should be expected and what is its benefit?
This insert features the MW5 chipbreaker, which promotes reliable chip fragmentation in cast-iron turning and helps maintain consistent surface quality and tool life.

How does the Rhombic 55° shape affect machining?
The Rhombic 55° geometry provides versatile approach angles for facing and turning operations, improving access to detail features while supporting stable cutting forces for repeatable results with the WKK10S grade.

Is the grade suitable for serial production?
Yes, the WKK10S grade with Tiger·tec Silver coating is designed for stable, productive cutting and prolonged tool life, making it well suited for series production of cast-iron components.

What should be considered when selecting a toolholder?
Select a toolholder compatible with DNMG-format inserts and the specified plate size and thickness; ensure correct clamping and tool projection to benefit fully from the insert’s chip control and corner radius characteristics.
