TS16-ER28UN WMP22G — Turning indexable insert, Tiger·tec Gold, for stainless steel — Walter Tools

The TS16-ER28UN WMP22G is a turning indexable insert engineered for secure chip control and consistent edge life in the machining of stainless steels under medium to robust conditions.

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for wear resistance
• Optimised for stainless steel (M)
• ER28UN chipbreaker for stable chips
• Consistent edge life under robust conditions

Minimise downtime with reliable stainless-steel performance

The TS16-ER28UN WMP22G insert is optimised for machining stainless steel (ISO group M), a family of materials known for toughness and heat sensitivity. The combination of a coated carbide substrate and a grade tuned to resist adhesion reduces the tendency for built-up edge and improves surface finish without aggressive parameter changes. For production environments, this translates into fewer tool changes, reduced scrap rates and improved process repeatability. Explaining the technical advantage: coated carbide provides a protective barrier that slows wear mechanisms, while the grade composition supports a stable cutting edge under the higher temperatures typical of stainless-steel turning.

Coating and grade for longer edge life and process security

The Tiger·tec Gold technology paired with the WMP22G grade focuses on balancing wear resistance and toughness. This balance helps maintain a sharp cutting profile through varying loads and interrupted cuts. The coating assists in lowering friction and thermal load at the cutting zone, thereby extending edge life and keeping surface quality within tighter tolerances. In practice, shops benefit from predictable tool performance and simplified tool management: fewer insert variants are required to cover common stainless-steel turning cases, which supports cost-efficiency and consistent output.

Effective chip control that protects tool and workpiece

Chip geometry is a decisive factor in turning productivity. The ER28UN chipbreaker on this family of inserts promotes short, controllable chips for typical stainless-steel turning operations, reducing the risk of entanglement and workpiece damage. Stable chip formation eases swarf handling and enables higher feed reliability, supporting automated processes and downstream handling. The result is an improved workflow with fewer interruptions and a better return on machining time — a practical advantage in batch production and continuous manufacturing environments.
