Benefit from durable, high‑performance milling thanks to the combination of a Tiger·tec Silver coating and the wear‑resistant WKP35S grade; the rectangular geometry with 0° negative rake and a 0.8 mm corner radius provides stable cutting and predictable tool life — order the insert via Metav Werkzeuge or consult their specialists for selection support.

LNMU100508-F57T WKP35S Fräswendeschneidplatte (milling indexable insert) by Walter Tools — Tiger·tec Silver, for steel and cast iron

The LNMU100508-F57T WKP35S is a rectangular milling indexable insert engineered for efficient machining of steel and cast iron, combining a coated carbide grade with a purpose‑built chipformer for reliable metal removal.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for high wear resistance
• Rectangular insert with 0° negative rake
• Corner radius 0.8 mm for stable cutting
• Suitable for steel and cast iron machining

High productivity through a wear‑resistant coated grade

The Tiger·tec Silver series delivers an optimised combination of coating technology and substrate, giving the insert a coated carbide surface that resists abrasive wear and thermal loading. The WKP35S grade is tailored for the demands of machining steel and cast iron, providing consistent flank life and reduced variation between edges. For production environments, this translates into fewer indexings and longer tool cycles, which directly improves machining throughput and lowers per‑part tooling costs. The design reduces thermal softening at the cutting edge and supports steady performance under common shop conditions.

Stable geometry for predictable surface quality and tool life

The rectangular form with a 0° negative rake and a 0.8 mm corner radius improves edge strength and dampens vibrations during intermittent or heavy cuts. The F57T chipbreaker manages chip formation for typical steel and cast iron chips, promoting uninterrupted evacuation and minimising rework from built‑up edge or surface blemishes. This geometry supports a repeatable surface finish and reduces the likelihood of edge chipping, ensuring that each indexed edge delivers predictable results and supports process stabilisation on the shop floor.

Practical application scope and handling advantages

Designed to fit standard milling toolholders that accept this indexable format, the insert is suitable where a balance of robustness and cutting performance is required. The combination of grade and chipbreaker makes it particularly effective in mixed production runs that include both unalloyed and alloyed steels as well as common cast iron types. Replacement is straightforward: secure clamping and correct seat contact are the main prerequisites for achieving the rated performance. Where material standards are specified according to ISO 513, this insert covers the P and K groups, ensuring clarity when selecting tooling for specific workpiece families.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert designed to machine?
The insert is specified for machining steel (P) and cast iron (K) according to the grade definition for the WKP35S variant.

What does WKP35S indicate for performance?
WKP35S denotes Walter Tools' carbide grade within the Tiger·tec Silver family, optimised for wear resistance and stable chip control in steel and cast iron applications.

How does the 0° negative rake affect cutting?
A 0° negative rake increases edge robustness and reduces the risk of chipping under heavy loads, which benefits interrupted cuts and aggressive milling passes.

Is the F57T chipbreaker suitable for mixed production runs?
Yes, the F57T chipbreaker is engineered to produce short, controlled chips in both steel and cast iron, aiding chip evacuation and surface consistency in mixed runs.

What is the exact product identifier for ordering?
Order using the SKU: LNMU100508-F57T-WKP35S-WALTER to ensure the correct Tiger·tec Silver insert and grade are supplied.
