TS22-EL3.5ISO WMP32G — Turning indexable insert for stainless steel, Walter Tools

A TS22-EL3.5ISO WMP32G turning indexable insert engineered to provide stable chip control and extended cutting performance in the machining of stainless steel.

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for extended tool life
• Optimised EL3.5ISO chipbreaker for stainless steel
• WMP32G grade for medium to robust conditions
• Consistent edge stability in high-temperature cuts

Higher productivity through focused material design

The combination of the WMP32G coated carbide grade and the Tiger·tec Gold coating delivers a performance profile tailored to the demands of stainless steel machining. The grade has been developed for M‑group materials, which commonly present high toughness, tendency to build-up on the edge and elevated cutting temperatures. As a result, the insert supports a more secure chip formation and reduces unplanned interruptions. This focused design enables longer tool life and more predictable tool-change intervals, improving process efficiency on serial and single-piece turning operations.

Improved process reliability with optimised chip control

The EL3.5ISO chipbreaker is engineered for controlled chip formation in mid-to-heavy cutting conditions typical of austenitic and other stainless steels. Controlled chips reduce the risk of surface damage, improve coolant access and help maintain consistent contact between workpiece and tool. The practical outcome is fewer surface defects and reduced secondary finishing, which translates into a lower cost per part and steadier cycle times on production lines.

Clear technical advantages for workshop planning

The insert is supplied in a TS22 configuration and is suitable for tool holders that accept this geometry. The design focus on thermal stability and edge protection supports operation at the elevated temperatures that arise when machining rostfreier Stahl (stainless steel). For planners and process engineers, this means fewer unexpected tool replacements and a reduced need for very conservative cutting parameters. The carbide substrate and coating combination also help preserve the cutting edge during interrupted cuts, common in facing and profiling operations.

Manufacturer quality and predictable performance

Produced by a recognised brand in precision tooling, the insert benefits from proven production standards and metallurgical control. The technical make-up of the grade and the coating technology emphasise stable edge retention and consistent wear behaviour under the conditions typical for stainless steel turning. This reliability supports higher first-pass yields and gives confidence when transferring processes between machines or sites.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert intended for?
The TS22-EL3.5ISO WMP32G insert is designed primarily for stainless steel (ISO group M); the WMP32G grade supports the toughness and thermal demands of these alloys.

What does the EL3.5ISO chipbreaker do?
The EL3.5ISO chipbreaker promotes compact, controlled chips when turning stainless steels, improving surface finish and reducing the risk of chip entanglement.

Is the insert compatible with standard TS22 tool holders?
The insert follows the TS22 configuration and is suitable for toolholders that accept TS22-style indexable inserts; confirm holder compatibility with the toolholder manufacturer before mounting.

How does the Tiger·tec Gold coating benefit the process?
The Tiger·tec Gold coating enhances heat resistance and reduces edge wear, which supports longer cutting life and more consistent machining results on stainless steel components.
