SDMT120425-F57 WKP35G milling insert — square 90° with 15° relief | Walter Tools

The SDMT120425-F57 WKP35G is a square 90° milling insert designed for medium to heavy milling of steel (P) and cast iron (K), combining a stable cutting edge with Tiger‑tec Gold coating for extended tool life.

• Tiger‑tec Gold for extended tool life
• WKP35G grade for steel and cast iron
• Square 90° geometry for versatile milling
• Chipbreaker F57 for controlled swarf evacuation

High productivity through material‑matched grade

The Tiger‑tec Gold WKP35G grade delivers stable cutting performance in both steel and cast iron, reducing flank wear under typical machining temperatures. The coated cemented carbide composition is engineered for abrasive resistance and thermal stability, which translates into fewer tool changes and longer uninterrupted production runs. This reliability supports predictable cycle times and improved process efficiency in demanding batch and continuous operations.

Geometry that improves dimensional consistency

The square 90° insert form with a 15° relief angle and 2.5 mm corner radius provides a balance between edge strength and fine surface finish. The insert geometry minimises deflection in slotting and peripheral milling, contributing to repeatable part tolerances and reduced rework. For workshops looking to standardise tooling, this geometry enables versatile use across a range of cutter bodies and milling strategies without sacrificing accuracy.

Chip control and machining stability for easier handling

The F57 chipbreaker is tailored to produce short, manageable chips in interrupted and continuous cuts, reducing the risk of chip entanglement and improving operator safety. Controlled swarf formation also helps maintain consistent contact at the cutting edge, which supports surface quality and reduces the load on coolant systems. Combined with the Tiger‑tec Gold coating, the insert resists built‑up edge and maintains a stable cutting edge over longer tool lives.
