TS16-IR08UN WMP22G — Indexable turning insert, Tiger·tec Gold (Walter Tools)

The TS16-IR08UN WMP22G is a Tiger·tec Gold-coated indexable turning insert engineered for dependable machining of rostfreien Stahl in medium to robust cutting conditions.

• Tiger·tec Gold coating technology
• Grade WMP22G for rostfreien Stahl
• IR08UN chipbreaker for secure chip control
• Stable cutting edge for medium to heavy cuts

Increased productivity through advanced coating

The Tiger·tec Gold coating on this insert enhances thermal resistance and wear performance, resulting in extended tool life and more consistent process windows when machining challenging alloys. The WMP22G grade is a coated carbide formulation optimised for the M material group; this supports stable cutting edges under higher temperatures and reduces the frequency of tool changes, which helps improve component throughput and machine utilisation. The technical design targets dependable performance rather than marginal gains, making it suitable for repeatable production tasks.

Consistent chip control for safer machining

Equipped with the IR08UN chipbreaker, the insert promotes predictable chip formation and lowers the risk of built-up edge during operations on rostfreien Stahl. Controlled chips reduce process interruptions and help maintain surface integrity of the workpiece. The chip geometry is configured to direct swarf away from the cutting zone and to support coolant interaction where applicable. For users transitioning from uncoated grades, this combination delivers a measurable reduction in process variability and rework.

Robust edge stability for medium to heavy cuts

The insert geometry and the WMP22G grade are tuned for medium to robust cutting conditions, offering a balance between toughness and wear resistance. This makes the component particularly effective in interrupted cuts or jobs with variable material batches. Edge stability contributes to repeatable dimension control and predictable tool life, which simplifies machining planning and inventory management for production and maintenance teams. The specification emphasises pragmatic reliability over niche specialisation.

Practical integration and handling benefits

The TS16 designation indicates a standard indexable form that integrates with common clamping systems; the insert is straightforward to index and replace, reducing downtime at the toolchanger. The insert’s design supports consistent seating and repeatability, which is beneficial in serial production where positional accuracy of the insert affects part tolerances. Where process documentation is required, the coated carbide and chipbreaker data enable clear setup parameters and reproducible cycle-times for manufacturing planning.
