TS16-IR20UN WMP22G Drehwendeschneidplatte – Tiger·tec Gold coating, for rostfreier Stahl | Walter Tools

The TS16-IR20UN WMP22G is a coated carbide indexable insert engineered for secure chip formation and repeatable edge stability in medium to robust machining of rostfreier Stahl.

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for extended tool life
• Optimised IR20UN chipformer for stable chips
• Suited to rostfreier Stahl machining
• Reliable edge stability at elevated temperatures

Improved productivity through reliable coating and chip control

The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold coating and the WMP22G grade delivers a measurable increase in process stability for machining rostfreier Stahl. The coating system reduces flank wear and supports consistent cutting-edge performance under thermal load, which translates into longer intervals between index changes and fewer unplanned stops. For production environments this means a lower risk of scrap and a more predictable machining cycle. The term coated carbide refers to a hard substrate with a thin engineered layer that increases resistance to abrasion and adhesion; this technology is central to the insert’s economy and repeatability.

Precise chip formation and secure cutting behaviour for stainless applications

The IR20UN chipformer is designed to produce controlled chips when working with tough, ductile alloys. Stable chip geometry reduces built-up edge and improves surface finish, while also lowering the chance of chip-related interruptions. Controlled chips are especially important in rostfreier Stahl where material toughness and heat generation can otherwise result in stringy or welded chips. The insert’s geometry helps maintain a consistent shear zone, enabling higher feed rates without compromising component quality. This results in more efficient cycles and less rework.

Practical selection and compatibility in mixed production

As a member of the Tiger·tec Gold series, this insert matches well with a range of holders and tool systems commonly used on turning centres. The WMP22G grade is tailored for medium to robust conditions on rostfreier Stahl, offering a balance between wear resistance and edge toughness. When planning tooling layouts or replacing inserts during a changeover, the grade’s predictable behaviour simplifies parameter setting and reduces trial time. For shops consolidating grades, the combination of coating technology and chipformer supports consistent results across batch sizes and part geometries.
