TCMT090204-RP4 WPP30G — Turning insert TCMT090204-RP4 WPP30G for Steel (Walter Tools)

A TCMT090204-RP4 WPP30G triangular turning insert designed for reliable general turning of steel components, combining Tiger·tec Gold coating with an RP4 chipbreaker.

• Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide
• Optimised RP4 chipbreaker
• 7° clearance angle for stable cutting
• Triangular 60° form for strong cutting edges

Consistent cutting performance for steel production

The triangular indexable insert delivers a reliable balance of wear resistance and toughness thanks to the Tiger·tec Gold coating and the WPP30G grade. Coated carbide technology reduces flank wear under typical steel machining temperatures, which extends tool life and reduces downtime. The insert’s chip control geometry ensures predictable chip formation during medium to heavy cuts, supporting steady cycle times and consistent component quality.

Improved surface finish with strong edge geometry

With a 0.4 mm corner radius and a triangular 60° form, the insert provides enhanced edge strength while enabling fine surface results on turned parts. The moderate corner radius increases resistance to edge chipping during interrupted cuts and contributes to uniform surface quality in finishing passes. This makes the insert suited to workflows where repeatable tolerances and good finishes are required without sacrificing durability.

Efficient chip handling and process reliability

The RP4 chipbreaker is configured to break and evacuate chips effectively when machining steels, reducing the risk of entanglement and tool nose wear. Combined with the 7° clearance angle, the insert maintains cutting stability and lowers cutting forces, which benefits tool life and machine load. These features together support higher uptime and predictable process windows in production environments.

Practical application and support for process integration

Designed for general turning of steel (ISO group P), the insert matches common industrial requirements for turning unalloyed and alloyed steels. The robust combination of coating, chipbreaker and geometry means straightforward tool selection for many standard turning operations. For specific alloys, cutting parameters or to integrate the insert into existing toolholders, Metav Werkzeuge provides application assistance and cutting-data advice to help achieve optimal productivity.
