TS16-IR1.0ISO-M5 WMP32G indexable turning insert, Tiger·tec Gold coating — Walter Tools (for stainless steel)

TS16-IR1.0ISO-M5 WMP32G is a coated carbide indexable turning insert engineered for reliable, repeatable turning of stainless steels in demanding production environments

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for wear resistance
• WMP32G grade optimised for stainless steel
• IR1.0ISO-M5 chipbreaker for stable chips
• Consistent edge life under robust conditions

Reliable machining of stainless steels with reduced built-up edge

The combination of Tiger·tec Gold coating and the WMP32G carbide grade provides enhanced resistance to abrasive and adhesive wear typical of austenitic stainless steels. The coating reduces friction at the cutting edge, which helps to lower adhesion and the formation of a built-up edge — a common cause of poor surface finish and interrupted production. This means more consistent component quality and fewer unplanned tool changes during medium to robust turning tasks.

Stable chip control that secures process efficiency

The IR1.0ISO-M5 chipbreaker is designed for dependable chip formation when cutting materials in the ISO M group. Controlled chip flow reduces the risk of entanglement and vibration, which in turn supports process stability and improves surface finish. For production settings where cycle consistency and machine uptime matter, the chip geometry contributes directly to higher overall productivity and predictable tool life.

Practical benefits for production planning and maintenance

As an indexable insert, this product allows fast tool replenishment with minimal setup time, supporting lean workflow in batch or continuous operations. Indexability means the cutting edge can be rotated or replaced without regrinding, lowering maintenance effort and inventory complexity. The WMP32G grade is tailored for the typical challenges of stainless-steel turning, offering a balance between edge strength and wear resistance that suits mixed-production environments.

Application guidance and material fit

The insert is classified for ISO group M, which denotes suitability for stainless steels. In practice, this implies good performance on austenitic and other stainless alloys that present high ductility and heat sensitivity. The coated carbide construction helps to manage heat generation at the cutting zone and supports stable chipbreaking under medium to robust cutting conditions. For application-specific parameters or feed and speed suggestions, Metav Werkzeuge’s advisors can provide tailored guidance based on the component geometry and machining setup.
