TS11-IL18UN WMP32G turning insert — Tiger·tec Gold, IL18UN chipbreaker by Walter Tools

The TS11‑IL18UN WMP32G is a coated indexable turning insert developed for dependable performance in the machining of stainless steel, combining a wear‑resistant grade with a chipbreaker optimised for secure chip control.

• Tiger‑tec Gold coating for stable cutting edges
• Designed for stainless steel machining (ISO M)
• IL18UN chipbreaker for reliable chip control
• Coated carbide grade WMP32G for long tool life

Stable cutting edges for consistent productivity

The coated carbide grade WMP32G, part of the Tiger·tec Gold series, is formulated to resist abrasive and adhesive wear, delivering edge stability across extended tool life. In applications with stainless steel, which typically exhibits work‑hardening and high thermal loads, a coating that supports consistent wear behaviour helps to reduce unplanned tool changes and machining interruptions. The result is more predictable cycle times and improved overall productivity without compromising component quality.

Reliable chip control that protects the process

The IL18UN chipbreaker is designed to produce controlled chip forms under medium to robust cutting conditions, improving evacuation and reducing entanglement risks. Reliable chip control lowers the likelihood of surface damage and accelerates handling in automated or manual turning operations. By combining geometry and grade, this insert supports steady material removal while helping maintain a consistent surface finish on the workpiece.

Application guidance for efficient integration

This insert is intended primarily for turning operations on stainless steel according to ISO group M. The combination of coated carbide and a dedicated chipbreaker makes the component suitable for a range of turning tasks where process security and repeatable results are priorities. For precise cutting parameters, toolholder compatibility and recommended feeds and speeds, Metav Werkzeuge provides application support and cutting data tailored to the machining setup, ensuring safe and economical deployment of the insert.
