RDMW1605M0T-A27 WKP35S milling insert, Tiger·tec Silver, Walter Tools

A RDMW1605M0T-A27 WKP35S round milling insert designed for versatile machining of Stahl and cast iron with a 15° clearance for reliable chip formation

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for wear resistance
• WKP35S grade for Stahl and cast iron
• 15° clearance for reliable chip flow
• Round form Ø16 mm for versatile milling

Higher productivity through targeted wear control

The combination of Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WKP35S grade delivers consistent performance in demanding interrupted and continuous cuts. The coating reduces abrasive wear on the cutting edge, which translates into longer tool life and fewer index changes — a clear productivity gain for series production. The A27 chipbreaker is designed to control chip shape during machining of Stahl and cast iron, reducing built-up edge and helping to maintain surface finish. For process planning, the insert’s geometry supports steady feed rates with predictable tool-change intervals, which makes machining cycles more economical and easier to schedule.

Robust cutting geometry for repeatable results

The round form with Ø16 mm and the specified plate thickness (05) provide stable support in the pocket and allow secure clamping forces to be used without compromising edge integrity. The 15° clearance improves chip evacuation and reduces friction between the flank face and the workpiece, which helps to limit thermal loading at the cutting zone. In practice, this leads to improved dimensional stability and repeatable component tolerances. For shops aiming for consistent part quality, the insert’s geometry helps to reduce rework and rejects while maintaining cycle times.

Application guidance and machining benefits

Designed primarily for machining Stahl and cast iron, the WKP35S grade is optimised for the typical heat and chip characteristics of these materials. The coated carbide substrate tolerates the mixed demands of abrasive and adhesive wear encountered when cutting cast iron and alloyed Stahl. Use moderate cutting speeds and appropriate coolant strategies for best results with the A27 chipbreaker; this encourages short, controllable chips and reduces the risk of chip entanglement. Where surface finish and tool life are prioritised, the insert’s balanced design supports a reliable compromise between productivity and finish quality.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The RDMW1605M0T-A27 WKP35S is specified for machining Stahl and cast iron; the WKP35S grade and Tiger·tec Silver coating are optimised for those material groups.

What is the clearance angle and why does it matter?
This insert features a 15° clearance angle, which aids chip flow and reduces flank contact, improving edge life and surface stability during milling.

What are the dimensional specifics of the insert?
The insert is a round form with Ø16 mm and a plate thickness designated as 05, intended for secure clamping and stable cutting performance.

How does the A27 chipbreaker affect machining?
The A27 chipbreaker produces short, controlled chips in interrupted and continuous cuts, enhancing chip evacuation and supporting consistent surface quality with less risk of built-up edge.

Is the insert recommended for rostfreier Stahl (stainless steel)?
No specific data is provided for rostfreier Stahl; the RDMW1605M0T-A27 WKP35S is described for Stahl and cast iron applications rather than rostfreier Stahl.
