TS22-ER5.0TR WMP32G turning indexable insert — Tiger·tec Gold coating for stainless steels | Walter Tools

The TS22-ER5.0TR WMP32G is a turning indexable insert engineered to provide controlled chip formation and durable cutting performance in applications involving stainless steels.

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for enhanced tool life
• ER5.0TR chipbreaker for stable chip control
• Optimised for machining stainless steels

Process stability and cutting-edge coating for longer runs

The coated indexable insert from the Tiger·tec Gold series delivers a balanced combination of wear resistance and thermal stability, which materially reduces the risk of built-up edge when machining stainless steels. The WMP32G grade is a coated carbide designed to manage the high ductility and heat generation typical of these alloys, helping maintain a consistent cutting edge over longer production runs. This improves cycle reliability and reduces unscheduled tool changes, supporting continuous operation on turning centres.

Precise chip control and consistent surface quality

Equipped with the ER5.0TR chipbreaker, this turning insert enables reliable chip segmentation and evacuation even under variable cutting conditions. Stable chip formation lowers the chance of tangling or scratching the workpiece and contributes to an improved surface finish. In practical terms, the combination of chip geometry and the Tiger·tec Gold coating means fewer process interruptions and more predictable component quality for serial or batch production.

Application scope and recommended use

The insert is intended primarily for machining stainless steels (material group M) under medium to robust cutting conditions. It is suitable for conventional turning tasks where control of heat and chip behaviour is critical. For best results, pair the insert with appropriate positive or neutral tool holders designed for the TS22 geometry and select cutting parameters that account for material toughness and work-hardening tendencies.

Handling, selection and economic benefits

Choosing the WMP32G grade reduces the need for frequent insert changes and supports reproducible results across multiple workpieces, which can lower unit costs and increase productivity. Proper mounting in the correct toolholder geometry and adherence to recommended speeds will maximise the tool life advantage offered by the Tiger·tec Gold technology. For operators new to this grade, trial cuts with incremental parameter adjustments are a pragmatic approach to find the optimal balance of speed and tool life.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The TS22-ER5.0TR WMP32G insert is optimised for machining stainless steels (material group M), where heat and ductility require a grade with secure chip control.

How does the Tiger·tec Gold coating benefit production?
The Tiger·tec Gold coating on the WMP32G grade increases wear resistance and thermal stability, extending tool life and improving consistency across batches.

Which chipbreaker is fitted and what is its effect?
The ER5.0TR chipbreaker provides controlled chip segmentation and evacuation, reducing the risk of tangling and improving surface finish during turning operations.

Is this insert suitable for fine finishing passes?
Yes; while the grade is designed for medium to robust conditions, the controlled geometry enables good surface quality when parameters are adjusted for finishing cuts.

How should the insert be mounted for best results?
Use a compatible TS22 toolholder with secure clamping and ensure the seating is clean and free of debris to maintain repeatable cutting geometry and optimal performance.
