TCGT110208-MM4 WSM01 turning indexable insert — Triangle 60°, 7° clearance (Walter Tools)

TCGT110208-MM4 WSM01 is a triangle‑form turning insert designed for heavy and heat‑resistant materials, optimised for secure chip formation and long edge life in demanding production environments

• Tiger‑tec Silver coated carbide grade WSM01
• Triangle 60° form for versatile turning applications
• 7° clearance angle for reduced cutting forces
• MM4 chipformer for stable chip control

Increased productivity through material‑specific grade and coating

The combination of the WSM01 coated carbide and the Tiger‑tec Silver series gives a clear production advantage when machining high‑temperature alloys and stainless steel. The grade is engineered to resist thermal degradation and to maintain a sharp cutting edge under intermittent and continuous engagement. As a result, the insert delivers consistent tool life and reduces unplanned tool changes, supporting higher machine uptime and predictable cycle times. The coated carbide surface promotes wear resistance and improved heat management during elevated cutting speeds.

Reliable chip control and geometric advantages for safer turning

Built with a MM4 chipformer and a Triangle 60° profile, the insert supports controlled chip flow and accessibility in confined toolholders. The 0.8 mm corner radius balances edge strength with surface finish, while the 7° clearance angle minimises rubbing and lowers cutting forces. These geometric choices reduce vibration and burr formation, which leads to more stable cutting and improved surface integrity on the workpiece. For workshops processing difficult alloys, the geometry reduces the likelihood of built‑up edge and eases downstream finishing operations.

Application focus: tough alloys and stainless steel made manageable

This grade is particularly suited to materials classified under ISO groups M and S, meaning it is effective on stainless steel and on heat‑resistant superalloys or titanium. The chemistry and coating of the grade help to avoid adhesion and edge breakdown that commonly occur with these materials, enabling longer uninterrupted runs and fewer tool indexings. In practice, that translates into lower unit costs and steadier quality for series production where repeatability matters most.
