TS11-IR-A60 WMP22G indexable turning insert – Walter Tools (Tiger·tec Gold, for stainless steels)

The TS11-IR-A60 WMP22G indexable turning insert is designed for productive machining of stainless steels under medium to robust conditions, combining a Tiger·tec Gold coating with the IR-A60 chipformer for stable cutting and reliable chip control.

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for enhanced wear resistance
• Grade WMP22G optimised for stainless steel machining
• IR-A60 chipformer for secure and consistent chips
• Consistent edge stability in medium to robust conditions

Longer tool life and reliable cutting in demanding stainless work

The Tiger·tec Gold coating and the WMP22G carbide grade work together to reduce flank and crater wear, which translates into more predictable tool life and fewer unplanned tool changes. Designed specifically for ISO material group M (stainless steels), the grade supports secure chip formation where heat and material adhesion can otherwise cause built-up edge. The coating’s multilayer design improves thermal stability at the cutting edge, enabling consistent surface quality and stable performance across a variety of stainless alloys.

Predictable productivity through chip control and edge stability

The integrated IR-A60 chipformer provides controlled chip breaking under medium to robust cutting parameters, reducing the risk of long, stringy chips and improving process reliability in automated and manual turning operations. Stable chip flow reduces secondary operations and machine downtime, which is particularly relevant in production setups aiming for tighter cycle times. Combined with the insert’s robust edge geometry, the solution supports repeatable part quality and a measurable improvement in processing efficiency.

Practical selection and application guidance for shop floors

The insert is intended for turning applications on stainless steels where a balance of wear resistance and toughness is required. The IR-A60 geometry is suitable for a range of depths of cut and feeds; it performs well where secure chip control is essential for safety and surface integrity. For machining strategies, pair the insert with appropriate coolant use and verified cutting data for the specific stainless grade. For complex workpieces or unfamiliar alloys, consultation with Metav Werkzeuge ensures the chosen geometry and cutting parameters match the production goals while maintaining tool life and component quality.
