TS11-IR2.0ISO WMP22G indexable turning insert for stainless steel — Walter Tools

TS11-IR2.0ISO WMP22G is an indexable turning insert designed for reliable stainless-steel machining in medium to robust cutting conditions, supplied under the Walter Tools Tiger-tec Gold series

• Tiger-tec Gold coated grade WMP22G
• IR2.0ISO chipbreaker for stable chips
• Designed for stainless steel machining
• High edge stability in medium to heavy cuts

Consistent performance for demanding stainless-steel turning

The TS11-IR2.0ISO WMP22G insert combines a Tiger-tec Gold coating with a specifically developed grade to address the typical challenges of stainless steel: high toughness, tendency to work-harden and elevated heat generation. The coated cemented carbide substrate improves wear resistance and reduces adhesion to the cutting edge, which in turn supports stable chip formation and reduced downtime for edge changes. For engineers seeking predictable tool life, the insert’s material selection and finish provide a measurable improvement in process reliability without requiring unconventional cutting strategies.

Stable chip control that protects the cutting edge

The IR2.0ISO chipbreaker geometry is optimised to produce consistent, controllable chips when turning austenitic and other stainless grades. By guiding chips away from the cutting zone and limiting the conditions that promote built-up edge, this geometry helps maintain a steady cutting force and better surface quality. The combination of chip control and a coated cutting edge reduces vibrations and flank wear, translating into fewer interruptions and higher first-pass yield in series production. This is particularly beneficial where process repeatability and piece-to-piece consistency are priorities.

Economic benefits through reduced tooling downtime

Using a high-performance grade like WMP22G with the Tiger-tec Gold treatment contributes to lower overall tooling costs by extending effective edge life and reducing changeover frequency. The result is high productivity with more parts machined per insert and improved machine utilisation. For production planners, this means a clearer return-on-tooling with shorter recovery times for planned maintenance and better adherence to production schedules. The coated insert’s behaviour under medium to robust conditions supports a stable process window, helping to avoid scrap and rework.

Practical integration into turning operations

The insert is delivered in the common TS11 geometry, allowing straightforward integration into existing toolholder systems designed for indexable turning inserts. For safe and efficient use, ensure the toolholder provides the correct seating and rigidity required by the TS11 form and select cutting parameters that reflect the material grade and machine capability. If parameter tuning is required, the technical team at Metav Werkzeuge can advise on recommended feeds and speeds and help clarify holder compatibility for specific turning applications. Clear guidance reduces trial time and accelerates ramp-up to full production.

FAQ

What materials is this insert designed for?
The TS11-IR2.0ISO WMP22G insert from Walter Tools is optimised for machining stainless steels (material group M), where toughness and heat generation demand a coated grade and controlled chip formation.

How does the IR2.0ISO chipbreaker improve performance?
The IR2.0ISO chipbreaker shapes and directs chips to reduce built-up edge and stabilise cutting forces; in combination with the Walter Tiger‑tec Gold coating it supports consistent surface finish and longer tool life.

Is the WMP22G grade suitable for heavy cuts?
WMP22G is intended for medium to robust conditions; the grade’s wear resistance and the insert’s edge stability help maintain performance under higher loads compared with standard uncoated grades.

Can this insert be used in existing TS11 toolholders?
Yes, the insert follows the TS11 indexable format and is compatible with toolholders designed for that geometry; ensure the holder provides appropriate rigidity and correct seating for safe operation.

What are the main advantages compared with an uncoated insert?
Compared with uncoated inserts, the Tiger‑tec Gold coating and WMP22G grade reduce adhesive wear and flank degradation, improving process security and increasing the number of parts produced per edge change.
