TS16-IR2.0ISO-2 WMP32G — Indexable turning insert by Walter Tools (for stainless steel)

The TS16-IR2.0ISO-2 WMP32G is an indexable turning insert engineered for turning operations in stainless steel, delivering stable chip formation under medium to robust cutting conditions.

• Tiger‑tec Gold coated grade WMP32G
• Optimised IR2.0ISO‑2 chip control
• Designed for stainless steel machining
• Stable cutting edge and long tool life

Reliable chip control for fewer interruptions

The combination of the IR2.0ISO‑2 chipbreaker and the Tiger‑tec Gold grade delivers controlled chip formation, which directly reduces machine stops for chip clearing. Stable chips lower the risk of built‑up edge and surface blemishes, while the coated carbide composition supports consistent cutting behaviour across varying feeds and depths. This results in a measurable increase in process uptime and fewer rework cycles.

Coating technology that extends service life

The WMP32G grade, utilising Tiger‑tec Gold coating technology, is a coated carbide solution optimised for the thermal and mechanical challenges of stainless steel. The coating improves wear resistance and maintains a protected cutting edge at elevated temperatures. For manufacturers, this translates into a lower cost per component through longer tool life and more predictable change intervals.

Consistent performance in medium to robust conditions

Designed for medium to robust cutting scenarios, the insert supports stable machining where workpiece toughness and heat build‑up are typical concerns. The geometry of the insert—paired with the chipbreaker—promotes secure chip flow and reduces the likelihood of surface defects. The predictable nature of the grade and chip control allows process engineers to standardise parameters and achieve repeatable results.

Practical benefits for workshop productivity

Adopting this grade and chipbreaker combination improves overall productivity by reducing unscheduled interruptions and simplifying tool selection for stainless steel tasks. The insert’s properties support a wide range of turning applications, enabling straightforward integration into existing tool programmes and shorter setup times. Improved tool life and consistent surface finishes contribute to more efficient downstream operations.
