DNMG150616-RP5 WPP20G turning insert, Tiger·tec Gold, for steel — Walter Tools

DNMG150616-RP5 WPP20G is a coated carbide turning insert engineered for steel machining, featuring a Rhombic 55° geometry with a 1.6 mm nose radius for stable engagement.

• Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide
• For steel machining (ISO P)
• Rhombic 55° geometry, 1.6 mm nose radius
• RP5 chipformer for controlled chips

Longer tool life through modern Tiger·tec Gold coating

The coated carbide grade WPP20G in the Tiger·tec Gold series combines a wear-resistant substrate with a multi-layer coating that is optimised for the thermal and mechanical demands of steel machining. This results in improved edge stability and reliable performance under typical cutting temperatures. For production environments, the coating's resistance to abrasive wear reduces the need for frequent index changes, supporting continuous operation and efficient tool management. The insert's construction is designed to promote reproducible results across medium to high cutting parameters while maintaining surface finish quality.

Geometry and chip control that enhance process security

The Rhombic 55° shape and 1.6 mm nose radius provide a balance between strength and detail, allowing close-tolerance turning and consistent finishing operations. The integrated RP5 chipformer is configured for predictable chip segmentation when machining steels (ISO P), improving evacuation and reducing the risk of built-up edge formation. Together, geometry and chip control increase process stability, which contributes to fewer interruptions and a higher first-pass yield on turned components.

Practical application guidance and support for machining steel

This indexable insert is intended primarily for steel applications; the grade designation indicates optimised behaviour for typical steel heat generation and chip formation. For selection and parameter setting, consider the component material, rigidity of the setup and coolant strategy. Metav Werkzeuge can advise on cutting speeds, feeds and depth of cut to match the WPP20G grade to specific production goals. For complex workpieces or new applications, technical data and machining recommendations are available on request—contact information is listed below for straightforward consultation.
