SNMX160620-F57 WPP35G Indexable milling insert for steel — Walter Tools

The SNMX160620-F57 WPP35G is a square 90° indexable milling insert developed for high-productivity machining of steel, combining a Tiger‑tec Gold coating with an F57 chipbreaker for controlled chip formation.

• Tiger‑tec Gold coated carbide
• Optimised chip control F57 breaker
• Square 90° geometry for stability
• Corner radius 2 mm for robust cutting

Consistent performance through advanced coating technology

The Tiger‑tec Gold coating in this insert provides a balanced combination of wear resistance and thermal stability, which is particularly beneficial when machining steel (ISO group P). The WPP35G grade is a coated carbide designed to maintain a stable cutting edge under the heat and forces typical of steel machining, reducing flank wear and helping to extend edge life. As a result, process reliability improves and tool-change frequency is lowered, supporting uninterrupted production cycles and predictable component tolerances.

Stable chip control and secure cutting geometry

The integrated F57 chipbreaker is engineered for reliable chip formation when removing steel material, promoting efficient evacuation and reducing the risk of built-up edge. The insert’s square 90° profile and 0° negative rake create a robust, vibration‑resistant cutting geometry that supports heavy cuts and interrupted operations. The 2 mm corner radius contributes to stronger cutting edges for roughing passes, improving tool life and surface consistency without sacrificing dimensional control.

Simple integration for productive toolpaths

The SNMX160620 format and compact dimensions allow straightforward replacement in compatible milling toolholders, enabling rapid index and return to production. The tolerance class M ensures consistent fit and repeatability across inserts, which simplifies tool set‑up and reduces variability between tools. Together with the coated carbide substrate, these characteristics support higher feed rates and longer tool life, translating to improved throughput and lower machining costs per component.

Optimised for steel applications and a wide process window

This insert is specified for machining steel, including unalloyed and alloyed variants as covered by ISO group P. The combination of the Tiger‑tec Gold coating and the WPP35G tool grade offers a versatile balance between wear resistance and toughness, making it suitable for general milling, face milling and shoulder operations in steel components. For applications outside steel, consult machining data sheets or contact our advisers to verify suitability and cutting parameters.
