TPMT16T308-MP4 WPP20G — turning indexable insert, Tiger·tec Gold, for Stahl (Walter Tools)

TPMT16T308-MP4 WPP20G is a triangular turning indexable insert designed for general turning of Stahl, providing a balance of edge stability and versatility in shoulder and profile applications

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for extended life
• Optimised MP4 chipbreaker for stable chips
• Triangle 60° geometry for versatile turning
• 0.8 mm corner radius for robust cutting edge

Increase throughput with a robust coating and geometry

The insert combines the Tiger·tec Gold coating with a coated carbide substrate to deliver extended tool life under typical turning conditions. The coating reduces wear and is engineered for thermal stability; this means that cutting parameters can be pushed further without compromising edge integrity, resulting in higher material removal rates. The triangular geometry with a 60° included angle offers multiple usable edges, so downtime for index changes is minimised while repeatable performance is maintained.

Stable chip control for consistent surface finish

Equipped with the MP4 chipbreaker, the design ensures predictable chip formation and evacuation for most turning operations in Stahl. The controlled chips reduce rework and protect the cutting edge, which in turn supports consistent surface quality and dimensional accuracy. The insert’s corner radius 0.8 mm contributes to a robust edge that withstands interrupted cuts and slight variations in feed, improving process security and reducing scrap rates.

Practical fitment and application guidance

The insert is supplied in the TPMT16T308-MP4 WPP20G designation and fits standard toolholders that accept TPMT-style indices. It is suitable for a wide range of turning tasks on Stahl where a balance of wear resistance and toughness is required. When integrating this grade into process planning, consider moderate feeds and speeds initially and increase within machine and workpiece limits; the optimised coating and chipbreaker allow for an efficient progression to higher productivity.
