DPGT11T308-MM4 WSM01 turning indexable insert — rhombic 55°, 11° clearance — Walter Tools

DPGT11T308-MM4 WSM01 is a coated carbide turning insert designed for demanding applications in stainless steel and high-temperature alloys

• Tiger-tec Silver coating for extended tool life
• WSM01 grade optimised for difficult-to-cut alloys
• MM4 chipbreaker for consistent chip control
• Rhombic 55° geometry with 0.8 mm corner radius

High-performance cutting of demanding materials

The combination of the Tiger-tec Silver surface treatment and the WSM01 coated carbide substrate yields a machining solution tailored for stainless steel and heat-resistant superalloys. The microstructure of the coating improves thermal resistance and reduces flank wear, which translates into longer productive tool life and fewer tool changes. By choosing an insert with a robust geometry and a 0.8 mm corner radius, process stability is increased during heavy cuts and intermittent cuts, reducing the risk of edge chipping and unplanned stoppages.

Consistent chip control and secure edge integrity

A dedicated MM4 chipbreaker provides predictable chip formation and evacuation, essential when machining materials that tend to form long, stringy chips. The chipbreaker geometry helps maintain a uniform cutting force and reduces heat concentration at the cutting edge. Combined with the rhombic 55° platform and 11° clearance, this arrangement improves surface finish while preserving the cutting edge, so operators can rely on repeatable results in serial production or one-off precision turning tasks.

Flexible geometry for varied turning operations

The rhombic 55° form offers versatility across turning tasks, from finishing to medium-depth cuts. The insert’s T3 thickness and the specified cutting geometry ensure sufficient rigidity for stable cutting, while the corner radius balances strength and edge definition to achieve consistent component tolerances. For workshops that machine a mix of stainless steel, titanium and other high-temperature alloys, this insert provides a balance between tool life and part quality, reducing set-up changes and boosting overall throughput.

Process benefits and economic rationale

Using an insert from the Tiger-tec Silver range with the WSM01 grade supports higher process reliability and often lowers total machining costs through extended tool life and reduced scrap. The design facilitates controlled heat dissipation and stable chip formation, which in many cases results in fewer reworks and predictable cycle times. As a rational investment for demanding turning applications, the insert contributes to efficient production flows and measurable gains in operating uptime.
