• Coated carbide grade WMP32G for stability

Longer tool life where heat and adhesion are a concern

The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold coating and the WMP32G grade offers a durable, wear-resistant cutting edge tailored to the demands of stainless steel. Coating technology reduces friction and increases thermal resistance, which in turn lowers the risk of built-up edge and premature flank wear during turning operations. For production environments where repeatability and tool-change intervals matter, this leads to fewer interruptions and a more consistent surface finish.

Predictable chip formation and reliable machining stability

The ER27NPT chipbreaker geometry is designed to promote controlled chip evacuation under the tougher conditions typical of stainless steels. Stable chip control reduces the likelihood of entanglement, improves heat dissipation at the cutting zone and helps maintain cutting-edge integrity. As a consequence, process security increases and cycle times remain consistent, supporting higher throughput in serial and batch operations.

Grade and series engineered for productive results

Belonging to the Tiger·tec Gold series, the cutting material is a coated carbide that balances toughness and hardness for mid-to-robust cutting conditions. The WMP32G specification targets adhesion-prone materials and contributes to a reliable cutting edge life. In practice, this means fewer insert indexes per workpiece and predictable tool performance across varying part geometries, which supports efficient planning of machining operations and tool inventories.
