LNHU080404-F57T WKP35G indexable milling insert — Tiger‑tec Gold, for steel and cast iron (Walter Tools)

LNHU080404-F57T WKP35G is an indexable milling insert designed for robust milling operations in steel and cast iron, offering a balance of wear resistance and predictable chip control

• Tiger‑tec Gold coating for long tool life
• Optimised WKP35G grade for steel and cast iron
• Rectangle geometry with 0.4 mm corner radius
• Negative 0° rake for stable cutting

High-performance coating and grade for economical machining

The combination of the Tiger‑tec Gold coating and the WKP35G substrate delivers a measurable improvement in tool life and process reliability. The advanced coating reduces abrasive wear during sustained cutting of P- and K-group materials, while the grade is tuned to maintain a stable cutting edge under typical steel and cast-iron heat loads. This results in fewer insert changes, lower tooling costs per part and more predictable machine utilisation. The description of the cut and chip formation is aligned with ISO 513 group designations, so material selection and cutting data can be matched to standardised recommendations.

Geometry and edge design that support stable, repeatable cuts

Rectangle geometry combined with a 0.4 mm corner radius and a negative 0° rake angle provides enhanced edge strength and vibration resistance in interrupted or heavy milling passes. The F57T chipbreaker is optimised for controlled chip formation in both unalloyed and alloyed steels and in cast iron, reducing recutting of chips and improving surface finish. Tolerance class H and the execution U ensure consistent seating and repeatability in compatible toolholders, supporting tight process windows and reproducible part quality in serial production.

Practical benefits for workshop and production planning

Selection of this insert supports both roughing and mixed finishing strategies where tool life and process security are priorities. The insert’s suitability for P and K workpieces means fewer tool variants are needed across mixed-material production runs, simplifying inventory and tool management. For detailed cutting data and application-specific feed and speed recommendations, Metav Werkzeuge provides technical support and further documentation; the insert’s coded designation helps ensure the correct holder geometry and clamping are chosen for safe operation.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The LNHU080404-F57T WKP35G insert is specified for ISO groups P and K, meaning it is suitable for machining various steels and cast iron.

What is the corner radius and why does it matter?
This insert has a 0.4 mm corner radius, which increases edge strength and improves resistance to chipping during heavy or interrupted milling.

Which chipbreaker is fitted and what does it do?
The insert uses the F57T chipbreaker, engineered to control chip formation for both steel and cast-iron machining, helping to reduce recutting and improve surface finish.

Is the insert coated and how does the coating help?
Yes, the insert features Tiger‑tec Gold coating, which enhances wear resistance and thermal stability to extend tool life under demanding conditions.

Which series and grade identify the insert’s performance level?
The Tiger‑tec Gold series with WKP35G grade indicates a coated cemented carbide solution optimised for economical, productive machining in steel and cast iron.
