TS16-ER24UNJ WMP22G — Indexable turning insert (Tiger·tec Gold) by Walter Tools

The TS16-ER24UNJ WMP22G is a coated indexable turning insert optimised for machining stainless steels under medium to robust cutting conditions.

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for high thermal resistance
• Grade WMP22G tuned for rostfreie Stähle
• ER24UNJ chipbreaker for stable chip formation

Efficient stainless-steel turning with consistent edge life

The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold coating and the WMP22G grade delivers a balance of heat resistance and edge stability that suits the demanding nature of stainless steel machining. Coated carbide reduces friction and protects the carbide substrate during high-temperature contact, which supports longer tool life and fewer tool changes. As a result, production runs benefit from increased uptime and predictable consumable intervals, helping to streamline process planning and reduce unplanned downtime.

Predictable chip control and process reliability

A well-matched chipbreaker such as ER24UNJ promotes consistent chip formation even under tougher feeds and interrupted cuts. Stable chips reduce the risk of workpiece surface damage and make automated chip handling more reliable. The insert’s geometry and coating combination also help to maintain a secure cutting edge, which improves surface finish quality and reduces the need for secondary operations in many turning applications.

Application guidance and compatibility

Designed for the ISO material group M, this insert is suited to stainless steels that typically present toughness and heat-related challenges. The TS16-ER24UNJ WMP22G performs best in medium to robust cutting regimes where chip formation and edge security are priorities. For shops seeking to move to more productive turning strategies, the grade’s behaviour supports higher process security and repeatable results across batch and single-piece runs.
