LCMX06T204-D57 WKP35S drill/boring indexable insert, Tiger·tec Silver, for steel and cast iron — Walter Tools

The LCMX06T204-D57 WKP35S is a rectangular drill/boring indexable insert engineered for reliable machining of steel and cast iron in production environments

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for extended tool life
• Suitable for steel and cast iron machining
• D57 chipbreaker for controlled chip formation
• 0.4 mm corner radius for stable cutting edge

Consistent performance through advanced coating and grade

The insert is built on the WKP35S coated carbide grade from the Tiger·tec Silver family, offering a balance of wear resistance and thermal stability that supports higher cutting parameters in many setups. This combination helps to maintain dimensional stability over longer tool life, which contributes directly to predictable cycle times and fewer interruptions in serial operations. The coated grade is optimised for the thermal and mechanical demands of machining steel and cast iron, providing a measurable uplift in process reliability compared with uncoated or older coatings.

Controlled chips and safer machining for smoother cycles

Equipped with the D57 chipbreaker, the geometry focuses on producing short, consistent chips when working with both steel and cast iron workpieces. Controlled chip formation reduces the risk of edge build-up and tool pressure spikes, lowering the likelihood of tool breakage and machine downtime. The combination of the chipbreaker and the insert’s cutting edge design supports efficient swarf evacuation in blind and through-hole operations, which is particularly valuable in automated or high-throughput machining cells where stable chip control reduces manual intervention.

Precision geometry for repeatable results and easy integration

The rectangular form with a 0.4 mm corner radius and a 7° clearance angle delivers a robust cutting edge that resists chipping while still allowing precise engagement in the cutting zone. The insert’s nominal size (06) and T2 thickness are compatible with a wide range of standard toolholders designed for this insert family, and the tolerance class M ensures consistent seating and repeatable clamping accuracy. These attributes simplify tool set-up, reduce indexing variance and help to maintain surface finish and dimensional tolerance across batches.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The LCMX06T204-D57 WKP35S from Walter Tools is designed for machining steel and cast iron, corresponding to the P and K groups under ISO 513.

How does the Tiger·tec Silver grade affect performance?
The Tiger·tec Silver coating on the WKP35S grade improves thermal stability and wear resistance, which supports longer tool life and more consistent cutting performance when using the Walter Tools insert.

What benefit does the D57 chipbreaker provide?
The D57 chipbreaker on this insert promotes short, controlled chips for safer evacuation and fewer interruptions, making the insert well suited to automated production and deep boring applications.

Is the insert compatible with standard holders for size 06 inserts?
Yes, the rectangular format and size 06 geometry of the insert are compatible with holders designed for this family, and the tolerance class M supports repeatable seating.

Can this insert handle high-feed or interrupted cutting?
The robust corner radius and coated grade give the insert good edge stability for demanding conditions; specific parameters depend on the machine, holder and workpiece, so tool setup should follow established cutting data.
