• HU5 chipbreaker for secure chip control
• Square 90° geometry with 2.4 mm radius

Greater machining productivity for stainless and heat‑resistant alloys

The combination of a high‑performance coating and a geometry aimed at stability yields measurable productivity benefits when turning materials in ISO groups M and S. The WSM30S grade, based on Tiger·tec Silver, is optimised for material groups that tend to work‑harden or generate heat; this leads to more consistent cutting forces and fewer interruptions for tool change. For operations where predictable tool life and reliable surface quality matter, the insert supports higher material removal rates while maintaining process stability.

Coating and grade that improve thermal stability and edge life

The insert’s Tiger·tec Silver treatment produces a coated carbide surface that resists thermal degradation and preserves the cutting edge under elevated temperatures common with stainless steels and nickel‑based alloys. The result is a stable cutting edge that reduces the risk of built‑up edge and premature flank wear. For shops aiming to lower tooling costs per component, the grade’s balance between toughness and wear resistance translates into fewer indexings and longer intervals between replacements.

Predictable chip control and robust geometry for safe cuts

Geometry choices influence both machining security and component finish. The HU5 chipbreaker is tailored to the insert’s profile to produce short, controlled chips in difficult‑to‑machine alloys, delivering secure chip control and reducing the risk of tangling. The square 90° shape and 0° negative rake combine with a corner radius of 2.4 mm to give strength at the cutting tip, enabling stable heavy cuts and improved tool life. This geometry also supports repeatable results when turning feature critical components.
