SCMT09T308-FP6 WPP20G turning insert — Tiger·tec Gold coating, 7° clearance | Walter Tools

A robust square turning insert designed for efficient steel machining with a Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide grade and optimised FP6 chipbreaker for reproducible results

• Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide
• Optimised FP6 chip control
• Suited for steel machining
• 0.8 mm corner radius and 7° clearance

Consistent performance for steel turning

The SCMT09T308-FP6 WPP20G is engineered to deliver reproducible outcomes when machining steels. The combination of the WPP20G coated carbide grade and the FP6 chipbreaker provides stable chip formation, reducing workpiece and tool vibration. This geometry suits common turning operations on unalloyed and alloyed steel, where thermal load and chip evacuation are decisive for process stability. The square 90° format and the 0.8 mm corner radius are optimised for a balance between edge strength and achievable surface finish, while the 7° clearance angle assists in maintaining cutting edge integrity under moderate cutting forces.

Geometry and coating that improve productivity

A focus on measurable benefits: the Tiger·tec Gold coating improves wear resistance and edge life compared with conventional grades, which translates into fewer insert changes and more uptime on the lathe. The coated carbide substrate is tailored for the thermal and mechanical demands typical of steel machining, enabling a cost-effective trade-off between productivity and tool life. The FP6 chipbreaker is designed to produce controllable chip shapes across a range of cutting parameters, simplifying downstream handling and reducing manual chip management during series production.

Application guidance and process integration

This insert is intended primarily for turning applications on steel, following ISO classifications for material group P. The compact plate size and square 90° form allow flexible use in finishing and light to medium roughing, with the 0.8 mm radius supporting reproducible edge conditions. For best results, pair the insert with a matching toolholder and establish cutting data aligned to the workpiece alloy and hardness; adjustments to feed and speed will refine surface quality and tool life. If supplementary technical data or cutting tables are required, Metav Werkzeuge provides detailed guidance and can advise on optimal parameters for specific steels and production settings.
