Consistent productivity for steel and cast‑iron components

The WKP35G grade from the Tiger‑tec Gold series is formulated for high demands in steel and cast‑iron machining. Coated carbide construction improves wear resistance and thermal stability, which results in extended tool life and fewer insert changes during long runs. Because the geometry is adapted to the heat and chip behaviour typical of these materials, the insert supports stable cutting conditions and repeatable part tolerances—important for maintaining a steady production flow and minimising unplanned downtime.

Secure cutting geometry for better surface finish

An integrated D57 chipbreaker combined with the octagonal plate form ensures controlled chip formation and evacuation, reducing the risk of chip re-cutting and tool edge overload. The 15° clearance angle helps maintain a constant engagement angle and protects the cutting edge during interrupted cuts. Together these features enhance surface finish and dimensional consistency, enabling reliable finishing passes with fewer operations. The design therefore supports both roughing and semi‑finishing steps in one tool set‑up.

Practical handling and process reliability on the shop floor

The octagonal 06 format and standard insert dimensions make handling and indexing straightforward, helping to keep set‑up times short. The coated grade and robust chip control promote process reliability, lowering scrap rates and increasing throughput. For production planners and machinists this means predictable performance over batch runs and simpler inventory management thanks to a widely used insert geometry and grade family.

Material and application clarity

Classified for ISO groups P and K, the grade is optimised specifically for unalloyed and alloyed steel as well as abrasive cast‑iron, addressing the typical heat generation and chip forms encountered in these materials. The coated microstructure of the Tiger‑tec Gold series contributes to stable edge retention and improved resistance against built‑up edge, which is particularly beneficial during continuous machining and higher cutting speeds.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The ODMT0605ZZN‑D57 WKP35G insert is intended for ISO groups P and K, meaning it is optimised for machining steel and cast‑iron applications.

How does the Tiger‑tec Gold coating benefit cutting performance?
The Tiger‑tec Gold coating on the WKP35G grade increases thermal stability and wear resistance, which enhances tool life and maintains cutting edge integrity during continuous milling cycles.

Can the octagonal format be indexed multiple times?
Yes, the octagonal 06 format permits multiple indexing positions, helping to extend usable life per insert and reduce tool change frequency.

What is the role of the D57 chipbreaker?
The D57 chipbreaker is designed to control chip shape and evacuation, improving surface finish and reducing the chance of chip re‑cutting or edge overload during interrupted cuts.

Is this insert suitable for both roughing and finishing operations?
With its controlled chip formation and stable cutting geometry, the insert supports roughing and semi‑finishing; process parameters should be selected according to the specific workpiece and machine capability.
