TS22-IR05W WMP32G – Indexable turning insert, Tiger·tec Gold, Walter Tools

A TS22-IR05W WMP32G indexable turning insert engineered for medium to robust turning of stainless steels, combining a coated carbide grade with a dedicated chipbreaker for stable cutting.

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for wear resistance
• Optimised IR05W chipbreaker for stable chips
• Designed for stainless steels (ISO group M)
• Coated carbide grade WMP32G for reliable edge life

Faster, more predictable machining thanks to coating and geometry

The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold coating with a coated carbide substrate provides a measurable improvement in tool life and process stability under tougher conditions. The insert’s IR05W chipbreaker is configured to promote stable chip formation when machining austenitic and martensitic stainless steels, which typically tend to form long, stringy chips and generate heat. This results in fewer interruptions for chip clearing and less risk of built-up edge, so cycle times are reduced and machine availability is improved. The hardened and wear-resistant surface of the grade supports repeatable performance and consistent component quality.

Confident turning of stainless steels with improved surface quality

Stainless steels (ISO group M) present specific challenges: high toughness, work hardening and elevated cutting temperatures. The WMP32G grade in the Tiger·tec Gold family is formulated as a coated carbide to address those challenges by balancing edge stability and heat resistance. The result is a more robust cutting edge that resists chipping and enables a cleaner finish on turned parts. For production environments where consistent surface integrity and dimensional control are required, this insert offers a tangible benefit by reducing scrap rates and rework.

Practical application guidance and process support

Select this insert for external turning operations under medium to robust cutting regimes where stainless steels are the predominant material. The geometry and coating are optimised to maintain cutting-edge integrity over longer tool life, which supports uninterrupted production runs. For exact cutting data and optimal toolholder pairing, Metav Werkzeuge’s technical advisors can assist with cutting-speed recommendations and grade matching to process requirements. This combination of product design and expert support helps integrate the insert into existing workflows with minimal trial-and-error.
