TCGT110204-FM2 WSM20S – Indexable insert for turning and drilling, Tiger·tec Silver | Walter Tools

A TCGT110204-FM2 WSM20S indexable insert designed for turning and boring operations in stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys, combining a robust geometry with a coated carbide grade for reliable machining.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for thermal resistance
• WSM20S grade for stable chip formation
• FM2 chipbreaker for consistent chip control
• Triangular 60° shape with 0.4 mm radius

Optimised grade and coating for demanding materials

The combination of Tiger·tec Silver and the WSM20S grade gives a coated carbide solution that is tailored for materials classified as M (stainless steels) and S (heat‑resistant superalloys and titanium). This specification supports stable chip formation under high temperatures and reduces the tendency for built‑up edge on difficult materials. In practical terms, the improved thermal resistance and coating adhesion mean longer effective cutting times and fewer interruptions for edge dressing, which contributes directly to higher machining throughput and lower tool cost per component.

Geometry engineered for edge stability and surface quality

The triangular 60° shape and the 0.4 mm corner radius combine mechanical strength with accessible cutting edges for a range of turning and boring tasks. The FM2 chipbreaker is configured to control chip flow on interrupted cuts and variable depths of cut, producing repeatable chip segmentation that protects the cutting edge. A 7° clearance angle maintains a reliable flank relief, helping to avoid rubbing that can increase temperature and degrade surface finish. Together, these features support a balance of edge stability and surface quality where consistent component tolerances are required.

Integration into CNC turning and drilling toolpaths

As an indexable insert, the component integrates into standard toolholders for drilling/boring and turning operations, offering straightforward indexability and quick edge changes. The insert’s designation and tolerance class enable predictable setup and repeatability across production runs, supporting process reliability on machine tools. For users processing stainless steels or nickel‑based alloys, this insert from Walter Tools reduces the need for frequent rework and contributes to a stable machining process; the SKU TCGT110204-FM2 WSM20S is suited to job shops and production environments that demand consistent performance with coated carbide grades.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The TCGT110204-FM2 WSM20S is specified for M and S groups, meaning it is suitable for stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys/titanium, where the WSM20S grade aids stable chip formation.

How does the Tiger·tec Silver coating help in machining?
The Tiger·tec Silver system enhances thermal resistance and coating adhesion on the insert, improving cutting edge life and reducing wear when machining tough alloys compared to uncoated grades.

What is the purpose of the FM2 chipbreaker?
The FM2 chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation, especially on interrupted cuts or varying depth of cut, which supports dimensional stability and safer swarf handling.

Can this insert be used for both turning and boring/drilling?
Yes, the geometry and designation indicate suitability for turning and certain boring/drilling toolpaths when mounted in compatible toolholders; the indexable format enables quick edge changes.
