RCGX120700T01020 WIS10 Drehwendeschneidplatte – SiAlON ceramic, 7° relief (Walter Tools)

The RCGX120700T01020 WIS10 is a round turning insert engineered for high-speed, temperature-resistant machining applications, offering a Walter SiAlON ceramic grade suited to ISO-specified material groups.

• SiAlON ceramic grade for high-speed cutting
• 7° relief angle for stable cutting performance
• Round insert, size 12 with 0 corner radius
• Walter open-series grade WIS10 for wide material range

Faster cycle times through high-speed ceramic cutting

The use of SiAlON cutting ceramic in this insert enables substantially higher cutting speeds where process parameters allow, translating directly into shorter cycle times and improved throughput. The material’s temperature resistance reduces thermal wear at the cutting edge, which supports longer productive intervals between tool changes. For machining operations that demand elevated spindle speeds and thermal stability, this grade offers a measurable productivity advantage while maintaining consistent dimensional results.

Stable cutting and improved surface consistency

The 7° relief angle combined with the round geometry ensures a stable cutting engagement and helps to dampen vibrations during continuous cuts. A 0 corner radius supports fine finishing passes where minimal nose radius is required, contributing to predictable surface quality. Tolerance class G indicates adherence to strict manufacturing tolerances, which benefits reproducible seating in the toolholder and reliable repeatability across production lots.

Broad applicability when matched to the ISO matrix

The open Walter series WIS10 is a SiAlON-based ceramic intended for temperature-resistant applications; suitability across specific workpiece categories should be confirmed against the product’s ISO material matrix. When applied within its recommended material groups, the insert provides consistent wear behaviour and effective edge performance. The series flexibility supports a range of turning tasks, from semi-finishing to finishing, provided cutting parameters and machine rigidity are appropriate.

Seamless fit into productive turning setups

With the format and dimensions indicated, the insert integrates into standard turning toolholders designed for round inserts and supports easy indexing of fresh cutting edges for extended tool life. The series designation and execution facilitate selection from Walter’s range and simplify stock management. For best results, pair the insert with a rigid toolholder and stable clamping to exploit the ceramic’s strengths in high-speed applications while ensuring chip control and component quality.

FAQ

What materials is this SiAlON insert suitable for?
Suitability depends on the ISO material matrix; the WIS10 grade in this insert is designed for temperature-resistant, high-speed applications—check the product matrix for specific ISO groups before use.

Is the insert ready for high-speed turning operations?
Yes, the SiAlON composition and the 7° relief angle of the RCGX120700T01020 WIS10 are engineered to perform at elevated cutting speeds when used in appropriate, rigid setups.

How does the round shape affect tool life and indexing?
The round geometry provides uniform edge strength and allows multiple indexings for extended cutting life while maintaining consistent engagement and surface finish.

Does the product require special clamping or toolholders?
Standard toolholders for round turning inserts are suitable; however, a rigid clamping arrangement is recommended to exploit the ceramic’s high-speed and temperature-resistant properties.
