DPMT11T304-MP4 WPP20G rhombic 55° turning insert, Tiger·tec Gold – Walter Tools

A DPMT11T304-MP4 WPP20G turning insert engineered for steel turning, offering stable chip control and extended wear resistance in general turning applications

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for extended tool life
• Optimised MP4 chipbreaker for stable chips
• Rhombic 55° form for versatile turning
• Suitable for steel machining (ISO P)

Faster, more predictable steel machining through optimised chip control

The combination of a dedicated MP4 chipbreaker and the WPP20G cutting grade reduces long, stringy chips and promotes short, manageable chips when machining steel. This leads to fewer interruptions for chip clearing and a steadier process, which in turn increases throughput. The insert geometry – a rhombic 55° platform with a 0.4 mm corner radius – supports versatile turning tasks, from light finishing cuts to moderate roughing, while maintaining a predictable cutting force and surface integrity.

Durable coating and substrate for longer operating cycles

Built on the Tiger·tec Gold technology, the coated carbide grade delivers improved wear resistance and a stable cutting edge across typical steel applications. The grade is specified for ISO group P (steel), offering a balance between toughness and hardness that reduces flank wear and cratering under elevated cutting temperatures. As a result, tool change intervals are extended and process stability is enhanced, contributing to a lower overall cost per component through reduced downtime.

Geometry and tolerance deliver consistent results in production

With a tolerance class of M, the insert ensures repeatable fit and seating in standard toolholders, supporting reproducible cutting conditions across multiple inserts. The 11° clearance angle and the Rhombic 55° form allow good access to contours while maintaining edge strength. These geometric decisions translate into consistent part quality and reduced setup variation, which is particularly valuable in small-batch and series production where reproducibility is essential.

Practical advantages for workshop and industrial environments

The insert’s designation and chip control make it suitable for a wide range of steel grades, addressing typical machining challenges such as heat generation and chip formation. The robust cutting edge and coated surface reduce the need for frequent regrinding, while compatibility with common clamping systems simplifies tool inventory. For operations seeking steady cycle times and predictable surface finishes, this solution supports efficient process planning and reduced scrap rates.
