SCMT120408-MP4 WPP10G indexable insert — square 90° turning/boring insert by Walter Tools, Tiger·tec Gold for steel machining

SCMT120408-MP4 WPP10G is a square indexable cutting insert designed for turning and boring applications, optimised for machining steel with a coated carbide grade from the Tiger·tec Gold family.

• High-performance Tiger·tec Gold grade WPP10G
• MP4 chipbreaker for controlled chip formation
• 7° clearance angle for stable cutting
• Square 90° form, 0.8 mm corner radius

Consistent productivity with a Tiger·tec Gold cutting grade

The coated-carbide WPP10G grade, part of the Tiger·tec Gold series, delivers a balance between wear resistance and versatility for steel (ISO P) machining. The coating technology reduces flank wear under the typical heat loads of steel turning, which results in more predictable tool life and fewer interruptions for insert changes. For production environments seeking repeatable component quality, the combination of a robust grade and optimised coating supports longer tool cycles and reduced downtime, thereby improving throughput and process stability.

Precise chip control and reliable edge stability for safe machining

The MP4 chipformer is engineered to produce short, controllable chips during a range of cutting conditions, helping to avoid long curled chips that can foul the workpiece or tool. Combined with the 0.8 mm corner radius and 7° clearance angle, the design promotes a stable cutting edge that tolerates intermittent cuts and variable feed rates. This geometry reduces vibration and spreads cutting forces more evenly, which benefits surface finish and prolongs holder and insert life in continuous production.

Robust square geometry for efficient tool use and toolpath planning

The square, 90° insert shape offers multiple usable edges per index, making the configuration economical for batch production where quick indexing is valued. The specified SCMT120408-MP4 form provides a compact footprint suited to both external turning and light boring operations in steel, enabling predictable cutting forces and easy integration into standard toolholders. Where process reliability and simple tool logistics are priorities, this insert form supports efficient tool management and consistent part accuracy.

FAQ

What materials is this insert optimised for?
The SCMT120408-MP4 WPP10G is optimised for machining steel in accordance with ISO P classifications; the Tiger·tec Gold grade supports typical steel heat and chip-formation behaviour.

How does the MP4 chipbreaker affect production?
The MP4 chipbreaker on the SCMT120408-MP4 WPP10G helps to create short, controlled chips, enhancing process safety and reducing chip-related interruptions during steel turning.

How many cutting edges are available per insert?
The square 90° geometry of the SCMT120408-MP4 WPP10G provides multiple indexable cutting edges, allowing rapid re-indexing to a fresh edge and efficient use of each insert.

Is this insert suitable for stainless steel?
Stainless steel suitability is not specified for the SCMT120408-MP4 WPP10G; the insert data indicate primary optimisation for steel (ISO P), so testing or consultation is recommended for other materials.
