TS22-IR11W-2 WMP32G — Indexable turning insert for stainless steel, Walter Tools

TS22-IR11W-2 WMP32G is an indexable turning insert designed for medium to robust machining of stainless steel, offering a balanced mix of wear resistance and stable chip formation in demanding turning operations

• Tiger·tec Gold coated for superior wear resistance
• WMP32G grade for reliable stainless steel machining
• IR11W-2 chipbreaker for stable chip control
• Consistent cutting edge and extended tool life

Increased process reliability in stainless steel turning

The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold coating and the WMP32G grade provides a robust, coated carbide solution tailored to the challenges of stainless steel, which tends to be tough and generates heat. The result is improved tool life and reproducible results: the coating reduces abrasive and adhesive wear while the substrate maintains edge strength. These characteristics translate directly into fewer tool changes and more predictable cycle times, helping to secure production targets and reduce unplanned downtime.

Controlled chips and safer machining thanks to IR11W-2

The built-in IR11W-2 chipbreaker is engineered to produce short, controllable chips when cutting stainless steel, reducing the risk of entanglement and minimising surface damage on workpieces. Stable chip formation supports consistent cutting forces and helps maintain a reliable cutting edge over multiple indexings. Explaining the chipbreaker function in simple terms: it directs and segments the swarf so that evacuation is predictable, which in turn supports higher feed rates and safer automated processes.

Coating and grade deliver measurable economy

The coated WMP32G grade is optimised for a wide range of stainless steel conditions encountered in workshops and production lines. The coating improves thermal and chemical resistance at the cutting zone, which reduces notch wear and built-up edge formation. For operations, this means fewer interventions, lower tooling cost per part and more stable surface quality—benefits that contribute to a favourable cost-per-component calculation over the life of the tool.

Practical recommendations for integration and use

For best results with this insert, pair it with tooling and parameters suited to stainless steel: moderate cutting speeds, increased feed to avoid rubbing, and a steady coolant strategy where applicable. The insert’s features lend themselves to both job-shop and volume production environments that require consistent performance.
