TCMT110208-FM6 WSM20S — Walter Tools turning insert, Tiger‑tec Silver, FM6 chipbreaker

A TCMT110208-FM6 WSM20S turning insert engineered for secure chip control and durable cutting performance when machining stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys

• Tiger‑tec Silver coated carbide
• Optimised FM6 chipbreaker
• Triangle 60° with 0.8 mm corner radius
• 7° relief angle for general turning

Consistent chip control for difficult-to-cut materials

The WSM20S grade from the Tiger‑tec Silver series is a coated carbide designed to master the particular challenges of stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys. The applied coating improves heat resistance and reduces edge wear under thermal stress, while the FM6 chipbreaker promotes predictable chip segmentation. In industrial turning, controlled chips reduce stoppages, protect the workpiece surface and extend the life of the toolholder. The combination of grade and chipbreaker therefore translates technical features into measurable production stability.

Robust cutting edge that supports higher productivity

The triangular 60° form with a 0.8 mm corner radius provides a balance between edge strength and surface finish. A larger corner radius reinforces the cutting edge against mechanical and thermal loads, lowering the risk of chipping in interrupted cuts and when machining tough alloys. The specified 7° relief angle reduces rubbing and tool warming without sacrificing rigidity. Together, these geometrical choices yield a secure cutting edge that helps maintain consistent component quality and reduces the need for frequent insert changes.

Clear application guidance for process planning

Marked for ISO material groups M and S, this indexable insert is suited to machining rostfreie Stähle (stainless steels) and heat‑resistant superalloys including titanium alloys. For best results, pair the insert with appropriate cutting data for the workpiece, moderate cutting speeds and suitable cooling strategy to control temperature at the cutting zone. The insert’s design supports productive roughing and finishing passes in demanding materials, delivering stable chip formation and repeatable results for batch production or specialised components.

FAQ

Is this insert suitable for stainless steels?
Yes. The TCMT110208-FM6 WSM20S insert from Walter Tools is specified for ISO material group M and is engineered to handle the thermal and mechanical demands of stainless steels.

What does the FM6 chipbreaker do?
The FM6 chipbreaker on this insert promotes controlled chip segmentation and evacuation, improving process reliability and reducing the likelihood of built‑up edge when machining tough alloys.

Which materials are recommended for this grade?
The WSM20S grade is intended for stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys (ISO groups M and S), where heat resistance and edge stability are critical.

How does the 0.8 mm corner radius affect machining?
A 0.8 mm corner radius strengthens the cutting edge for heavier cuts and interrupted machining while maintaining a satisfactory surface finish, supporting longer tool life and fewer index changes.
