TCGT16T302-MN2 WN10 – Triangle 60° indexable insert for drilling, reaming and turning by Walter Tools

A TCGT16T302-MN2 WN10 indexable insert engineered to provide stable clamping and predictable cutting behaviour across drilling, reaming and versatile turning tasks in CNC machining.

• Triangle 60° form for stable clamping
• Uncoated carbide grade WN10
• MN2 chipbreaker for controlled chips
• 0.2 mm corner radius for fine finishes

Consistent clamping and dimensional stability for reliable cycles

The triangular 60° geometry combined with a T3 thickness produces a compact insert that increases insert stability under radial loads, reducing the risk of chatter during interrupted cuts. With a 0.2 mm corner radius, the insert supports improved surface quality on bore and turning operations while protecting the cutting edge during entry and exit. These characteristics translate into predictable tool behaviour and repeatability in series production, which is particularly valuable where cycle consistency is essential and setup time must be minimised.

Controlled chip formation and predictable cutting performance

Equipped with the MN2 chipbreaker and made from WN10 uncoated carbide, this insert prioritises controlled chip formation for effective evacuation in drilling and reaming applications as well as in finishing turns. The absence of a coating often benefits specific process windows where built-up edge or thermal conductivity behaviour is preferable; however, material compatibility should be verified against the product matrix. The specified 7° relief angle further assists in achieving a consistent cutting geometry and contributes to stable cutting forces, helping to maintain surface integrity and dimensional accuracy.

Efficient integration into CNC toolholders and adaptable application scope

The ISO designation and compact form factor enable straightforward integration into standard triangular indexable holders used for combined drilling/reaming and light turning tasks. Tolerance class G reflects manufacturing precision of the insert, aiding accurate positioning in the tool pocket and reducing the need for repeated adjustment. For workshops seeking a practical, no-frills carbide option for a range of operations, this cutting insert provides a clear balance between handling ease and machining performance. For specific workpiece materials and optimal cutting data, consult the product matrix before selection to ensure the grade suits the intended application.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The WN10 grade is an uncoated carbide; suitability depends on the workpiece—please check the product matrix for precise material recommendations before use with specific steels or alloys.

How does the MN2 chipbreaker affect machining?
The MN2 chipbreaker promotes short, controllable chips and improved evacuation, which is beneficial for drilling and reaming as well as for turning operations that require consistent surface quality.

Is the insert compatible with standard triangular toolholders?
Yes, the triangle 60° form is intended for standard triangular indexable holders commonly used in combined drilling, reaming and light turning setups.

What does tolerance class G indicate?
Tolerance class G denotes the manufacturing precision of the insert; it supports reliable seating in the tool pocket and helps reduce the need for repeated micro-adjustments.

Can this insert be used for finishing passes?
With a 0.2 mm corner radius and the MN2 chipbreaker, the insert can deliver fine finishes in appropriate cutting conditions; finishing capability also depends on workpiece material and cutting parameters.
