P4160-2R04-E47 WPP20G drill/boring indexable insert – Tiger·tec Gold, for steel, Walter Tools

P4160-2R04-E47 WPP20G is a drill/boring indexable insert designed for reliable machining of steel in production and repair environments, delivering consistent chip control and wear resistance.

• Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide grade WPP20G
• Optimised chipformer for stable chip control
• Designed for machining steel (ISO P)
• Reliable wear resistance and long tool life

High-performance cutting for steel with reduced cycle times

The P4160-2R04-E47 WPP20G insert combines a Tiger·tec Gold coating with a coated carbide substrate to provide enhanced resistance against abrasive and adhesive wear during continuous drilling and boring operations. The WPP20G grade is specified for steel (ISO P), which means the insert has been engineered to handle the typical heat generation and chip formation associated with unalloyed and alloyed steels. The coated carbide substrate enables higher cutting parameters than uncoated grades, so cycle times can be reduced while maintaining dimensional stability. In practice, this translates into fewer tool changes and more predictable production scheduling for job shops and manufacturing lines.

Stable chip control and process security for repeatable results

A key benefit of the insert is its 2R04-E47 chipformer, which is optimised to produce short, controllable chips when machining ISO P materials. Controlled chip formation reduces the risk of chip entanglement and improves surface finish, so the machining process becomes safer and more efficient. The robust edge preparation and coating work together to protect the cutting edge against thermal and mechanical stresses, promoting wear resistance and consistent part quality. This technical reliability supports higher process security and reduces scrap rates, an advantage for operations that require repeatable accuracy and tight tolerances.

Clear application guidance and compatibility for workshop use

The insert is presented in the ISO designation P4160-2R04-E47 WPP20G and is intended for drilling and boring applications where steel is the primary workpiece material. The Tiger·tec Gold coating provides a balance between toughness and hardness, making the grade suitable for a broad range of steel types encountered in everyday machining. As an indexable insert, it is compatible with toolholders and drill bodies designed for this ISO geometry; selection of the correct holder and clamping system is essential to fully exploit the insert’s tool life and cutting performance. For operators unfamiliar with the grade, specifying the ISO P classification helps ensure correct process integration and avoids misapplication.
