LNHU080404-B57T WKP35S rectangular milling insert, Tiger·tec Silver, Walter Tools

A LNHU080404-B57T WKP35S rectangular indexable milling insert designed for high‑productivity machining of steel and cast iron in demanding milling operations

• Tiger·tec Silver coated carbide grade
• For steel and cast iron (ISO P/K)
• Rectangular form 08, 0.4 mm corner radius
• Negative rake 0° for stable cutting

Maximised productivity with controlled chip formation

The insert combines the WKP35S grade with the Tiger·tec Silver coating to deliver reliable performance when machining ISO P/K materials. The coated carbide matrix resists thermal and abrasive wear, which helps to maintain cutting parameters at high spindle speeds. The result is more consistent material removal and reduced risk of unexpected wear, translating into predictable cycle times and fewer tool changes. Technical users will appreciate the clear link between coating technology and sustained productivity.

Lower machining costs through longer tool life

A 0° negative rake geometry and the B57T chipbreaker are optimised for short, controllable chips typical of cast iron and the heat‑developing behaviour of steels. This geometry contributes to a stable cutting edge and consistent surface finish, which reduces rework and extends time between indexings. The economic advantage is tangible on batch jobs: fewer interruptions and improved tool utilisation provide a rapid return on tooling investment while keeping process routines straightforward.

Versatile geometry for dependable setups

The rectangular 08 form with a 0.4 mm corner radius provides a balance between strength and edge definition, suitable for both roughing passes and finishing cuts where robustness matters. The insert thickness (04) supports secure clamping in compatible toolholders and ensures repeatable seating for accurate indexability. Such geometry minimises vibration and promotes dimensional stability, simplifying setup and supporting consistent part quality across runs.

Practical integration and application guidance

Designed for production environments, the indexable plate integrates smoothly into standard milling toolholders and is suited to a wide range of machining strategies. The combination of grade, chipbreaker and negative rake supports process reliability in mixed‑material workshops working mainly with steel and cast iron. If additional clarification of cutting parameters or recommended feeds and speeds is required, Metav Werkzeuge provides technical consulting to align the insert with specific machine and workpiece conditions.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for? The LNHU080404-B57T WKP35S insert is designed for machining steel (ISO P) and cast iron (ISO K), reflecting the WKP35S grade and Tiger·tec Silver coating.

How does the B57T chipbreaker affect chip control? The B57T chipbreaker produces short, controlled chips ideal for cast iron and steels with typical chip‑breaking behaviour, improving evacuation and process stability during milling.

What benefits does the 0° negative rake provide? A 0° negative rake increases edge strength and stability under heavy cut loads, helping to maintain surface quality and extend the time between indexings.

Is the insert compatible with standard rectangular toolholders? The rectangular form 08 and thickness 04 make the insert compatible with holders designed for this geometry; correct clamping and seat condition ensure repeatable performance.

Which coating technology is used and why is it important? The insert uses Tiger·tec Silver, a multilayer coating that enhances wear resistance and thermal stability, supporting higher productivity and more predictable tool life.
