TPMT090204-MP4 WPP20G indexable turning insert — Tiger‑tec Gold, for steel

The TPMT090204-MP4 WPP20G is a triangular indexable turning insert designed for general steel machining, offering a balanced mix of wear resistance and toughness for productive turning operations.

• Tiger‑tec Gold coated grade WPP20G
• MP4 chipbreaker for controlled chip formation
• Triangular 60° shape for positive cutting geometry
• 11° clearance angle and 0.4 mm corner radius

Increased process reliability for steel turning

The combination of the WPP20G grade and Tiger‑tec Gold coating provides a predictable wear pattern and extended tool life when machining steel (P). The coating technology enhances resistance to abrasive wear while the substrate maintains toughness, which results in fewer interruptions for tool changes and steadier component quality. As a consequence, production cycles benefit from improved uptime and more consistent dimensional control during batch turning tasks.

Controlled chips and improved surface quality

The dedicated MP4 chipbreaker actively shapes and breaks chips during cutting, reducing the risk of long, entangling swarf and improving evacuation in both through‑cutting and finish passes. The combination of an 11° clearance angle and a 0.4 mm corner radius delivers a favourable cutting edge contact for stable cutting forces and reduced built‑up edge formation. This leads to a more reliable surface finish and lower rework rates, especially on medium‑to‑general steel grades.

Cost‑effective performance and secure clamping

The triangular 60° format with size 09 and thickness 02 ensures versatile mounting options and straightforward indexability, providing three usable cutting corners per insert. The tolerance class M supports consistent seating and repeatable geometry in standard toolholders, contributing to process security and predictable part geometry. Overall, the insert balances durability and economy, supporting higher productivity and fewer tool interventions in serial turning operations.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The TPMT090204-MP4 WPP20G is designed primarily for steel (P) machining and performs reliably across unalloyed and alloyed steel grades.

How does the MP4 chipbreaker improve machining?
The MP4 chipbreaker shapes and segments chips to ensure stable evacuation and reduced risk of swarf entanglement, which improves surface quality and operator safety during turning.

How many cutting edges are available per insert?
The triangular 60° geometry provides three cutting corners per insert, enabling quick indexing and efficient use of the grade.

Is the insert suitable for finishing passes?
Yes; the 0.4 mm corner radius and 11° clearance make the insert suitable for controlled finishing operations on steel where a stable edge and good surface quality are required.

Which series and coating does the grade belong to?
The grade belongs to the Tiger‑tec Gold series and is a coated carbide designed for a balance of wear resistance and toughness.
