LCMX06T204-F57 WSP45G — Bohr-/Aufbohrwendeschneidplatte by Walter Tools, Tiger·tec Gold, 7° clearance

The LCMX06T204-F57 WSP45G is a coated carbide indexable insert designed for drilling and boring operations, optimised for mixed-material production including Stahl, rostfreier Stahl and Titan-class alloys.

• Tiger·tec Gold PVD coating
• Versatile for Stahl, rostfreier Stahl and superalloys
• Stable cutting edge with 0.4 mm radius
• 7° clearance angle for consistent chip control

High-efficiency performance for mixed-material production

The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold series and the WSP45G grade delivers high process reliability in operations that require both wear resistance and edge stability. Designed as a coated carbide insert, the geometry of the rectangular plate and the F57 chipbreaker promote consistent chip control during drilling and rough boring, reducing rework cycles and increasing machine throughput. The insert is particularly effective where temperature and toughness vary between workpiece types; its PVD-based coating supports stable cutting forces and improved surface integrity on both unalloyed and alloyed Stahl components, while helping to limit built-up edge on more tenacious materials.

Durable edge life and predictable tool behaviour

A 0.4 mm corner radius and a 7° clearance angle create a balance between cutting strength and surface finish. The modest corner radius increases edge robustness during interrupted cuts and heavy engagement, whereas the clearance angle prevents rubbing and facilitates smoother entry and exit during bore cycles. These geometry decisions translate into fewer insert changes and steady component tolerances—attributes that directly support productivity targets on batch and series production. The coated hardmetal substrate enhances resistance to flank wear, so the insert sustains performance over longer toolpaths without compromising dimensional repeatability.

Application scope and machining advice

This insert is coded for P / M / S workpiece groups, meaning suitability for a broad set of applications: P indicates general Stahl machining, M indicates rostfreier Stahl (austenitic and other stainless grades), and S covers heat-resistant superalloys and Titan. In practical terms, the grade is tailored for milling and boring operations with variable feed and depth conditions where a robust, multi-purpose solution is preferred. For finishing passes or where tight surface-roughness demands exist, combine the insert geometry with appropriate feed reduction and coolant strategy to exploit the coating’s thermal stability and to avoid edge build-up.
