Increased productivity through optimised coating and grade

The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold coating and the WMP32G grade delivers enhanced tool life and repeatable performance when machining stainless steel. The coating reduces wear at elevated temperatures and supports a stable cutting edge, which in turn helps maintain dimensional accuracy over longer tool life. For production environments this translates into fewer insert changes and reduced machine downtime, improving overall throughput and process reliability.

Secure chip control and surface quality for demanding parts

Equipped with the IR20UN chipbreaker, this insert promotes consistent chip formation and evacuation when working with tough, work-hardening materials. Stable chip control minimises the risk of built-up edge and erratic cutting forces, helping to achieve a uniform surface finish and reducing the need for rework. The insert’s geometry supports secure cutting under moderate to robust cutting conditions, making it suitable for components where surface integrity and repeatability are essential.

Practical choice for workshops and series production

As an original Walter Tools product in the Tiger·tec Gold family, the insert is engineered for dependable everyday use. The WMP32G grade is a coated carbide formulation optimised for the thermal and mechanical challenges of stainless steel. Its application focus reduces process variability and simplifies grade selection across similar jobs, which supports efficient tooling management and predictable operating windows on the shop floor.
