SDMT09T316-F57 WSP45G Fräswendeschneidplatte (Tiger·tec Gold) – Walter Tools — PVD-coated carbide, 15° clearance, 1.6 mm corner radius

SDMT09T316-F57 WSP45G is a square milling insert designed for general and heavy-duty milling of steels, stainless steels and heat-resistant alloys, offering stable cutting edges and consistent chip control.

Tiger·tec Gold PVD coating for improved wear resistance
Suitable for steel, stainless and superalloys
Square 90° form with 1.6 mm corner radius

Consistent performance for productive milling

The Tiger·tec Gold grade WSP45G is a PVD-coated carbide cutting material formulated for a balance of toughness and wear resistance. This combination promotes stable chip formation and reduces the risk of built-up edge when machining common construction steels and more demanding materials. The PVD layer enhances flank and crater wear resistance, which translates into longer effective tool life and fewer insert changes, improving spindle utilisation and lowering indirect production costs.

Versatility across materials and applications

Designed for the ISO groups P, M and S, the insert supports machining of steel, stainless steels and heat-resistant superalloys/titanium, making it suitable for mixed-batch production or set-ups requiring flexible tooling. The chipbreaker F57 encourages predictable chips in a wide range of cutting conditions, assisting in secure evacuation and reducing the chance of re-cutting. For shops that handle both ferrous and high-temperature alloys, this grade offers a pragmatic compromise between toughness and hardness.

Engineering features that reduce downtime

The geometry—square 90° form with a 1.6 mm corner radius and 15° clearance angle—is optimised for rigidity and strength at the cutting edge. A larger corner radius increases edge robustness for interrupted cuts and shoulders, while the relief angle supports smooth entry and exit, limiting edge chipping. The insert’s tolerance class M and T3 thickness give consistent seating and repeatable results in toolholders, which reduces set-up time and contributes to stable surface finishes.

Practical handling and process integration

This insert is part of the Tiger·tec Gold series and is supplied in the ISO designation SDMT09T316-F57 WSP45G. The format and standard designation simplify tool planning and procurement in production environments. For milling strategies, pairing this insert with a suitable cutter body and optimising feeds to the material will deliver the best compromise between tool life and cycle time. Where higher temperatures or abrasive conditions occur, the PVD coating supports thermal and oxidative resistance to maintain cutting-edge integrity.
