TCMT110208-FK6 WKK10S WKK10S Wendeplatten - Walter Tools

Efficient, abrasion-resistant machining of cast-iron components is achieved by combining the Tiger·tec Silver coating with the wear-resistant WKK10S grade and a 0.8 mm corner radius for consistent edge life; order the TCMT110208-FK6 WKK10S directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult our technical advisers for cutting data and application support.

TCMT110208-FK6 WKK10S — Turning and Boring Indexable Insert, Tiger·tec Silver (Walter Tools)

The TCMT110208-FK6 WKK10S is a triangular 60° indexable insert designed for productive turning and boring of cast iron components, delivering stable chip formation and long tool life.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for abrasive wear resistance
• WKK10S grade optimised for cast iron machining
• Triangle 60° insert with 0.8 mm corner radius
• 7° clearance angle for reliable chip control

Consistent accuracy for cast-iron production

The combination of a coated, hard-metal grade and a triangular geometry ensures reliable edge life when machining abrasive cast-iron grades. The WKK10S grade, developed within the Tiger·tec Silver family, is tuned to resist the common abrasive wear seen with grey and nodular cast irons, which reduces frequency of index changes and stabilises process capability. For production workshops, this translates into fewer interruptions and more predictable component tolerances, supporting higher throughput without sacrificing surface quality.

Faster machining with wear-resistant coating

A modern, multilayer coating applied in the Tiger·tec Silver process improves resistance to abrasive wear and thermal loading. The Tiger·tec Silver finish enhances flank and crater wear behaviour, enabling more aggressive cutting data on cast-iron workpieces while maintaining dimensional control. This allows a clear cost-efficiency argument: longer insert life and lower tool consumption per component. Where cycle-time improvements are required, selecting a coated insert grade like this provides measurable gains in productivity.

Controlled chips and secure cutting edges

The integrated FK6 chipformer and the insert geometry with a 0.8 mm corner radius support the formation of short, breakable chips typical for cast-iron machining. A defined 7° clearance angle reduces rubbing and heat build-up at the cutting edge, preserving the insert’s geometry and improving surface finish. For operators with limited experience of indexable tooling, these built-in chip control features simplify setup and reduce the need for frequent adjustments during uninterrupted production runs.

Designed for smooth integration in tool systems

The triangular 60° format and standard ISO-style designation make the insert compatible with a wide range of toolholders and turning systems. Its profile supports both general turning and light finishing passes, allowing workshop planners to consolidate tool inventories. Technical personnel will appreciate the clear assignment to the cast-iron material group (K), which simplifies tooling lists and ensures consistent selection across multiple machines and shifts.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The TCMT110208-FK6 WKK10S is intended primarily for machining cast iron; the WKK10S grade and Tiger·tec Silver coating are optimised for abrasive, short-chip cast-iron conditions.

Can this insert be used for finishing passes?
Yes, the triangle 60° geometry with a 0.8 mm corner radius suits light finishing and semi-finishing tasks while maintaining a good surface quality on cast-iron components.

Which chipformer does the insert use and why is it important?
The insert features the FK6 chipformer, engineered to produce short, controllable chips in cast-iron turning, improving process reliability and reducing the risk of chip entanglement.

How does the coating affect cutting performance?
The Tiger·tec Silver coating increases resistance to abrasive wear and thermal stresses, allowing higher cutting speeds and longer tool life compared with uncoated grades in cast-iron applications.

Is the insert compatible with standard holders?
The ISO-style designation and triangular 60° form make the insert compatible with common indexable insert holders designed for TCMT-type geometries.
