SCMT120408-RP4 WPP10G indexable insert — turning and boring insert by Walter Tools, Tiger·tec Gold, 0.8 mm radius

The SCMT120408-RP4 WPP10G is an indexable insert designed for reliable turning and boring of steel, combining a coated carbide grade with a chipbreaker optimised for stable chip control in continuous and interrupted cuts

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for longer tool life
• Precision square 90° geometry for consistency
• 7° relief angle for stable cutting performance
• Grade WPP10G optimised for steel machining

Higher cutting reliability thanks to modern coating technology

The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold technology and the WPP10G carbide class provides a balanced performance profile for machining steel. The advanced coating reduces flank wear and improves thermal stability during heavy or elevated-speed cutting, which translates into longer tool life and fewer insert changes. For production environments this means more predictable tool cycles and reduced process interruptions, supporting efficient throughput and consistent part quality.

Geometry and edge preparation that enhance surface finish

The square 90° insert form with a 0.8 mm corner radius and a 7° relief angle is intended to deliver stable cutting behaviour and repeatable component surfaces. The moderate corner radius balances edge strength and surface quality, enabling reliable performance on a range of turning and boring operations. The insert thickness of 4 mm adds rigidity at the cutting edge, reducing vibration and helping to maintain dimensional accuracy in short and medium-length turning cycles.

Tailored for steel with a chipbreaker optimised for chips

Engineered primarily for steel applications (material group P), the insert features the RP4 chipbreaker which is tuned to promote stable chip formation and evacuation in typical steel grades. That results in fewer built-up edges, better tool life and a reduced risk of surface damage. The specification supports a wide spread of operational needs from general turning to more demanding interrupted cuts, offering flexibility without compromising productivity.
