LNHU100508-B57T WKP35S milling insert — Walter Tools, Tiger·tec Silver, for steel and cast iron

LNHU100508-B57T WKP35S is a rectangular milling insert designed for productive milling of steels and cast irons, featuring the Tiger·tec Silver coating and a B57T chipbreaker for reliable chip control

• Tiger·tec Silver coated carbide
• Designed for steel and cast iron machining
• 0° negative rake for heavy-duty cutting
• Rectangle form with 0.8 mm corner radius

Consistent productivity through advanced coating and grade

The WKP35S grade, implemented in the Tiger·tec Silver series, combines a coated carbide substrate with a multi-layer wear-protection system to extend tool life under typical steel and cast-iron conditions. This results in stable chip formation and predictable wear behaviour, which supports higher feed rates and reduced tool-change frequency. The combination of coating and grade improves resistance to abrasive wear encountered when machining cast iron and maintains edge integrity during interrupted cuts, delivering a measurable improvement to process throughput.

Robust geometry for secure cutting performance

A 0° negative rake and the rectangular plate geometry provide enhanced edge strength for heavy or interrupted milling operations. The integrated B57T chipbreaker is tailored to manage the characteristic chip forms of P (steel) and K (cast iron) groups, reducing the risk of built-up edge and improving surface finish consistency. The 0.8 mm corner radius increases resistance to chipping at the cutting edge, supporting heavier depths of cut and longer in-service intervals between regrinds.

Process reliability that lowers operational costs

The insert’s tolerance class H and the precision production ensure repeatable seating and secure clamping in the cutter body, which contributes to consistent cutting conditions across batches. Reliable dimensional accuracy minimises setup time and helps maintain surface quality from the first to the last component. By reducing variability and unplanned stoppages, the insert supports a better cost-per-part outcome and a more predictable production schedule in both job-shop and industrial environments.

Practical application notes and machining scope

Assigned to material groups P (steel) and K (cast iron) per ISO 513, the insert is optimised for typical heat and chip behaviours of these materials. Its rectangle 10 profile and plate thickness code support integration into a wide range of milling bodies designed for indexable inserts. For best results, combine the insert with a cutter body suited to rectangular plates and select cutting parameters that balance power, tool life and surface quality.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The LNHU100508-B57T WKP35S insert from Walter Tools is suitable for machining steel (P) and cast iron (K) as defined by ISO 513, with the WKP35S grade optimised for these groups.

How does the Tiger·tec Silver coating improve performance?
The Tiger·tec Silver coating on this Walter Tools insert increases wear resistance and stabilises chip formation, which supports higher productivity and longer tool life under typical steel and cast-iron cutting conditions.

What does the 0° negative rake mean for cutting operations?
A 0° negative rake creates a stronger cutting edge and improved resistance to chipping during heavy or interrupted cuts; it enhances reliability when using the LNHU100508-B57T WKP35S in robust milling operations.
