TCMT110308-FP4 WPP20G turning/boring indexable insert, Tiger‑tec Gold – Walter Tools

The TCMT110308-FP4 WPP20G is a triangular 60° indexable insert designed for reliable turning and boring of steel components, offering consistent chip control and long tool life.

• Triangle 60° geometry for versatile turning
• Tiger‑tec Gold coated carbide for long tool life
• FP4 chipbreaker optimised for steel machining
• 0.8 mm corner radius and 7° clearance angle

Consistent performance from Tiger‑tec Gold coating

The coated carbide grade WPP20G, based on Tiger‑tec Gold technology, delivers consistently stable wear behaviour when machining steels. The multilayer coating reduces flank and crater wear, which translates into longer effective cutting life and fewer tool changes. For production environments where repeatable surface quality and predictable tool life matter, this coating technology supports uninterrupted runs and simpler process planning. The coating’s design balances toughness and wear resistance, making it suitable for both roughing and finishing cuts in many steel applications.

Geometry and chip control that reduce rework

A 60° triangular shape combined with the FP4 chipbreaker provides controlled chip formation and positive cutting engagement on steel. The indexable geometry offers three cutting edges per insert, improving economy, while the 0.8 mm corner radius helps maintain edge strength under higher feed rates. The 7° clearance angle reduces rubbing and minimises heat transfer to the flank, preserving dimensional accuracy. The FP4 chipbreaker is engineered to break and evacuate chips reliably in typical steel turning conditions, lowering the risk of built-up edge and improving surface finish.

Productivity gains through stable process behaviour

The matched combination of grade and geometry means fewer interruptions and a lower cost per component. The WPP20G grade is optimised for the thermal and mechanical demands of steel machining, enabling higher cutting speeds and longer intervals between index changes. Stable chip control and a robust cutting edge contribute directly to reduced cycle times and consistent part tolerances. For job shops and production lines alike, this leads to measurable productivity improvements and a simpler tool and spare parts workflow.

Practical application and compatibility guidance

This insert is intended for the ISO P material group and is suitable for unalloyed and alloyed steel. With an insert size of 11 and a plate thickness of 3.0 mm, the geometry is well suited to a wide range of lathe toolholders and boring bar systems designed for triangular TCMT inserts. The coated carbide substrate and chipbreaker combination favour common turning operations—from shoulder and profile turning to light roughing—while maintaining surface integrity. For best results, pair the insert with appropriate cutting parameters and coolant strategy tailored to the component and machine rigidity.
