SCMT09T304-FM6 WSM30S Turning indexable insert — Tiger·tec Silver for stainless steels and superalloys | Walter Tools

A SCMT09T304-FM6 WSM30S is a square 90° turning insert with FM6 chipbreaker designed for heavy‑duty machining of stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys.

• Tiger·tec Silver coated carbide
• Stable edge for stainless steel machining
• FM6 chipbreaker for controlled chips
• Square 90° insert with 0.4 mm corner radius

High‑performance coating for extended tool life

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver technology and a coated carbide substrate delivers thermal resilience and wear resistance where it matters most. Designed for machining stainless steels (ISO group M) and heat‑resistant alloys (ISO group S), the grade supports stable chip formation under high temperatures and tough cutting conditions. This results in fewer interruptions, longer intervals between indexings and a predictable tool life that benefits throughput and production planning.

Geometry and chip control for reliable surface quality

The insert’s FM6 chipbreaker and 0.4 mm corner radius are optimised for controlled chip formation and consistent cutting forces, improving repeatability across batches. A 7° relief angle helps reduce rubbing and heat build‑up while the square 90° form offers straightforward toolholder compatibility for conventional turning operations. These geometric choices translate into reliable surface finish and fewer reworks, helping maintain quality standards on serial production.

Workshop integration and economic machining

With tolerance class M and T3 thickness, the design balances rigidity and accessibility for a wide range of tool holders and setups. The insert’s focus on stainless and high‑temperature alloys makes it a practical choice for job shops and production environments seeking to reduce cycle times and tool consumption. The robust edge stability reduces unexpected tool change events, supporting smoother processes and lower unit machining costs.

FAQ

Is this insert suitable for machining stainless steels?
Yes. The SCMT09T304-FM6 WSM30S is specifically formulated for stainless steels (ISO group M) and offers stabilised chip formation and edge life in these materials.

What does the FM6 chipbreaker achieve?
The FM6 chipbreaker on this Walter Tools insert promotes controlled chips and stable cutting forces, improving surface quality and reducing the risk of built‑up edge.

Can this grade handle heat‑resistant alloys and titanium?
Yes. The WSM30S grade is intended for challenging materials, including heat‑resistant superalloys and titanium (ISO group S), where thermal and mechanical stress on the cutting edge are high.

Which geometric details affect setup choices?
Key setup factors are the square 90° form, 0.4 mm corner radius, 7° relief angle and T3 thickness, which determine holder compatibility and cutting conditions for consistent performance.

How does the Tiger·tec Silver series benefit production?
Tiger·tec Silver coated carbide provides improved wear resistance and thermal stability, which extends edge life and contributes to predictable tool behaviour across longer production runs.
