TS16-IR1.5ISO-2 WMP32G — Indexable turning insert, Tiger·tec Gold (for stainless steel) | Walter Tools

The TS16-IR1.5ISO-2 WMP32G is an indexable turning insert engineered for reliable machining of stainless steel in medium to robust conditions, combining a coated cemented-carbide grade with a purpose-built IR1.5ISO-2 chipbreaker.

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for extended tool life
• Optimised for stainless steel (ISO M)
• Stable chip control with IR1.5ISO-2 geometry

Faster throughput thanks to durable coating and grade

The combination of Tiger·tec Gold technology and the WMP32G grade delivers a coated cemented-carbide construction that resists edge wear and supports longer tool life. This results in fewer interruptions for insert changes and a more consistent production rhythm. By prioritising wear resistance and edge stability, the insert helps reduce unplanned downtime and contributes to measurable productivity improvements in turning operations where heat and material toughness are a challenge.

Predictable chip formation for stainless-steel applications

Stainless steels are prone to work-hardening and built-up edge; the IR1.5ISO-2 chipbreaker geometry is designed to promote controlled chip formation and evacuation under those conditions. Improved chip control reduces the risk of surface damage and tooling interference, so component rework and machine stoppages are less likely. For operations that demand repeatable results on ISO M materials, the geometry supports a safer machining window without sacrificing cycle time.

Improved process security and surface quality

A coated cemented-carbide grade that combines toughness with coating adhesion creates a stable cutting edge, which in turn improves process security and the achievable surface finish. The stable edge behaviour of this insert means fewer variations between insert changes and a reduced need for corrective finishing passes. For production environments where consistent part quality is essential, the insert contributes directly to lower scrap rates and improved first-pass yield.

Seamless integration into standard indexable tooling systems

The insert is a purpose-made indexable turning solution compatible with common tool holders and tool-change routines. Its design facilitates fast indexing and predictable performance across multiple seats, enabling efficient tool management and cost-effective use of cutting edges. For shops seeking a pragmatic upgrade for stainless-steel turning, this insert offers a straightforward route to better repeatability and reduced tooling costs per component.
