TNMG330924-RP5 WPP20G indexable turning insert, Tiger·tec Gold coating — for steel | Walter Tools

A TNMG330924-RP5 WPP20G indexable turning insert designed for efficient steel turning applications, offering a robust RP5 chipbreaker and a 60° triangle form for versatile turning tasks.

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for long tool life
• RP5 chipbreaker for reliable chip control
• Triangle 60° form with 2.4 mm corner radius

Enhanced wear resistance through advanced coating

The grade in this series is WPP20G, part of the Tiger·tec Gold family, which combines a tailored coating and substrate to provide improved wear resistance in continuous and interrupted turning of steel. The coated carbide construction controls flank wear and extends the usable life of the insert, reducing changeover frequency and contributing to steadier process costs. For operations where repeatable tool life is critical, the coating technology supports consistent performance across production runs.

Predictable chip control and surface quality

Equipped with the RP5 chipbreaker, the insert directs and breaks chips reliably during standard turning operations, leading to safer chip evacuation and improved surface finish. The chip geometry is optimised for common steel grades, meaning fewer secondary operations and a lower risk of surface damage. Stable chip formation also decreases the likelihood of built-up edge formation, which helps maintain dimensional accuracy and reduces scrap rates in batch production.

Designed for robust steel machining with neutral rake

The insert features a 0° negative rake and is specified for the machining of steel (material group P), allowing for higher reliability when cutting tougher or variable steels. The negative rake enhances edge strength, making the insert more tolerant of interrupted cuts and feed variations. Process planners and machinists benefit from the increased robustness: fewer insert failures translate into less unplanned downtime and a more predictable production flow.

Geometry and tolerance for precise positioning and strength

The triangular Triangle 60° form with a 2.4 mm corner radius offers a balance between cutting strength and accessibility for turning profiles. The plate size code 33 and thickness code 09 support common toolholder systems that accept the TNMG family, while the tolerance class M ensures consistent fit and repeatable indexing. These geometry characteristics contribute to reliable clamping and reproducible cutting conditions, supporting higher overall equipment effectiveness in workshop and production environments.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The insert is specified for machining steel (material group P); the TNMG330924-RP5 WPP20G grade and Tiger·tec Gold coating are optimised for steel turning.

How does the RP5 chipbreaker influence process stability?
The RP5 chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation, which improves surface finish and reduces the risk of chip-related interruptions during turning.

Can this insert handle interrupted cuts and roughing tasks?
Yes, the negative 0° rake and the triangular form with a 2.4 mm corner radius provide enhanced edge strength for interrupted cuts and robust roughing operations.

Which toolholders are compatible with the insert code 33 and thickness 09?
The insert conforms to standard TNMG-style holders that accept the size code 33 and thickness code 09; compatibility should be verified against the toolholder specification.

Is the WPP20G grade coated or uncoated?
WPP20G is a coated carbide grade from the Tiger·tec Gold family, designed to improve wear resistance and process reliability when machining steel.
