SCMT09T304-RP4 WPP20G indexable insert – Square 90°, 7° relief for steel | Walter Tools

The SCMT09T304-RP4 WPP20G is a square indexable insert, part of the Tiger‑tec Gold range, engineered for efficient turning and drilling/boring applications in steel (ISO P).

• Tiger‑tec Gold coated, enhanced tool life
• RP4 chipbreaker for stable chip control
• Square 90° shape with 0.4 mm corner radius
• Designed for steel machining (ISO P)

High process reliability through advanced coating and chip control

The Tiger‑tec Gold coating combined with a coated carbide substrate provides a balanced mix of wear resistance and toughness that supports longer tool life under the typical heat and chip formation encountered when machining steel. The RP4 chipbreaker is optimised to produce predictable, short chips in a range of turning and light boring operations, reducing downtime due to chip-related interruptions. This technical pairing results in improved cycle times and repeatable surface quality, which is particularly important in production environments that prioritise throughput and consistency.

Robust edge geometry for stable cutting and tool life

A square 90° insert with a 0.4 mm corner radius delivers a stable cutting edge that resists chipping while maintaining dimensional control in interrupted cuts or when taking heavier depths of cut. The modest 7° relief angle supports a secure cutting engagement without excessive cutting forces, and the T3 insert thickness contributes to mechanical rigidity in the toolholder. These geometric choices make the insert suitable for operators seeking predictable tool behaviour and a reduced risk of edge breakouts during demanding sequences. The grade WPP20G is specified for general-purpose steel machining, giving a reliable compromise between wear resistance and toughness.

Production-ready choice with trusted manufacturer backing

Selection of a Tiger‑tec Gold grade from Walter Tools delivers not only technical performance but also the assurance of a recognised tooling partner. The combination of balanced grade chemistry and engineered chip control supports stable manufacturing processes and consistent part quality. For integrators and workshop managers, this insert offers a pragmatic route to lower overall tooling costs through fewer index changes and fewer rejects. For further specification of feeds and speeds or to match the insert to a particular toolholder and operation, Metav Werkzeuge’s technical consultants are available to advise with application-specific recommendations.

FAQ

What materials is this insert designed for?
The SCMT09T304‑RP4 WPP20G is specified for steel machining (ISO P); the WPP20G grade is tailored to manage the heat and chip formation typical of steel.

How does the RP4 chipbreaker affect performance?
The RP4 chipbreaker promotes stable, controllable chip formation during turning and light boring, improving process security and reducing interruptions from long or tangled chips.

What does the 0.4 mm corner radius mean for tool life and surface finish?
A 0.4 mm corner radius provides a durable cutting edge that resists chipping under heavier cuts while still enabling acceptable surface finishes and dimensional control in many turning applications.

Is this insert suitable for interrupted cuts?
With its square 90° shape, modest relief angle and robust corner radius, the insert is well suited to applications that include moderate interruption; however, toolholder rigidity and cutting parameters should be matched to the operation.

Where can technical recommendations for feeds and speeds be obtained?
Application‑specific feeds and speeds for the SCMT09T304‑RP4 WPP20G are available from Metav Werkzeuge’s technical team, who can advise based on machine, material and clamping conditions.
