TCGW06T104TS-1 WBH20 turning indexable insert — CBN grade, triangle 60° | Walter Tools

A TCGW06T104TS-1 WBH20 turning insert developed for hard and pre-hardened steel turning, optimised for dependable hard machining and finishing operations

• CBN grade WBH20 for hard machining
• Triangle 60° geometry for robust cutting
• 7° relief angle for stable cutting action
• 0.4 mm corner radius for durable edge

Maximum wear resistance for hardened steels

The combination of CBN technology and the WBH20 grade makes this insert especially suited to hardened steels and pre‑hardened workpieces. CBN (cubic boron nitride) is a superabrasive designed for sustained performance where conventional carbides can wear rapidly; the result is high wear resistance and predictable tool life in demanding hard‑turning tasks. The insert’s composition and series classification — Walter CBN / Hard material — ensure suitability for materials where hardness and abrasive wear dominate the machining challenge.

Consistent geometry for improved surface and process stability

The triangle 60° form offers a robust cutting edge and multiple indexable corners, while the 7° relief contributes to a stable shear plane and controlled chip flow. A 0.4 mm corner radius balances edge strength with surface integrity, helping to reduce microchatter and maintain a consistent finish. Together these geometry choices support stable cutting geometry and predictable outcomes, enabling longer uninterrupted cycles and fewer tool changes in high‑stress operations.

Productivity gains through process reliability and longevity

As an indexable insert from Walter Tools, this grade is engineered to deliver consistent results in serial production: longer tool life, reduced downtime and steady surface quality. The insert’s design supports hard machining strategies that favour sustained depth of cut and lower feed variability, which in turn improves overall throughput. Where repeatability and process reliability are priorities, the robust edge and CBN performance translate into measurable productivity benefits and lower unit costs over longer runs.
