TS16-ER18UNJ TS16-ER18UNJ WMP32G Drehwendeschneidplatte — Tiger·tec Gold for stainless steel, Walter Tools

TS16-ER18UNJ WMP32G offers a robust, coated carbide geometry designed for medium to demanding machining of rostfreier Stahl

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for extended life and stability
• ER18UNJ chipbreaker for optimised chip control
• WMP32G grade tailored for stainless steel (M)
• Stable cutting edge for repeatable performance

Enhanced productivity through optimised tool geometry

The insert combines a coated carbide grade with a specifically designed chipbreaker to reduce interruptions and maintain a continuous process flow. The Tiger·tec Gold technology provides a thin, hard coating that lowers flank wear and helps resist built-up edge on tougher alloys; as a result, cycle times are less likely to be affected by early tool changes. For manufacturers facing frequent machining of stainless steel, the geometry promotes stable cutting forces and predictable tool life, which directly supports higher first-pass yields and fewer unscheduled interventions.

Consistent results on rostfreier Stahl with predictable chip control

Classified for material group M under ISO guidelines, the insert's WMP32G grade is engineered for the specific challenges of stainless steels — toughness, tendency to adhere and elevated heat generation. The ER18UNJ chipbreaker encourages short, consistent chips and improves evacuation in shoulder and turning operations, reducing the risk of surface damage and machine downtime. Operators benefit from clearer process windows: feeds and speeds can be set with confidence, and surface quality remains consistent throughout batch production.

Practical benefits for workshop integration and handling

This turning insert is suitable for standard toolholders that accept the TS16 geometry and can be adopted without complex retooling. The coated grade supports higher productive cutting parameters compared with uncoated alternatives, making it a pragmatic choice where uptime and repeatability matter. Maintenance routines are simplified by the coating’s resistance to edge chipping, which reduces frequency of insert checks and replacements. For procurement, the product aligns with industrial demands for reproducible performance and economical metal removal rates.
