Tiger·tec Gold coating for long tool life Optimised FP5 chipbreaker for steel Rhombus 35° geometry for versatile turning 0° negative rake for secure cutting High productivity and measurable economy for steel turning The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold coating and the WPP10G grade produces a coated carbide insert tailored for the thermal and mechanical conditions encountered when machining steel. The coating technology reduces flank wear and helps maintain a stable cutting edge, which translates into longer tool life and fewer index changes on the machine. For production environments where uptime and repeatability matter, this results in a measurable productivity gain and reduced process interruptions. The design supports robust chip formation under typical steel cutting temperatures, thereby lowering the risk of built-up edge and scrap parts. Geometry that secures surface quality and process reliability The Rhombus 35° plate form in conjunction with a 0° negative rake offers a secure cutting geometry that increases process stability, especially in shoulder and medium-depth turning operations. The 0.4 mm corner radius gives a balance between strength and finish capability: enough corner support for interrupted cuts and stable heat distribution, while still allowing good surface finish on general turning tasks. The negative rake promotes a predictable cutting action, which is particularly useful when dealing with variable stock or hard-start conditions where chip flow and tool deflection must be controlled. FP5 chipbreaker explained and its direct benefits The FP5 chipbreaker is optimised for steel applications and is a decisive factor in consistent chip segmentation and evacuation. By shaping the chip flow close to the cutting edge, the chipbreaker reduces the likelihood of long, entangling swarf and prevents re-cutting of chips. The practical result is improved process security and reduced manual cleaning during longer unmanned cycles. For operators less familiar with chipbreaker nomenclature: FP5 denotes a profile engineered to create short, controllable chips in a broad range of feed rates used for steel turning. Workshop compatibility and straightforward integration This insert conforms to the standard VNMG format and fits holders built for that designation, simplifying replacement and inventory management. The tolerance class M supports reliable seating and repeatable indexing, while the plate thickness and overall form maintain the rigidity expected in medium-duty to heavy-duty turning. As the cutting grade is explicitly tailored to steel, it integrates well into mixed-production shops that process unalloyed and alloyed steels without frequent grade swaps. Where tool consolidation is a priority, the combination of geometry, chip control and the Tiger·tec Gold coating helps reduce the number of different inserts needed across a shopfloor.
