TS22-IR4.5ISO WMP32G — indexable turning insert for stainless steels, Tiger·tec Gold (Walter Tools)

The TS22-IR4.5ISO WMP32G is an indexable turning insert engineered for the reliable machining of stainless steels in moderate to robust cutting conditions, offering a balance of wear resistance and stable chip control.

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for enhanced wear resistance
• Optimised for stainless steel machining
• Stable chip formation under robust conditions
• Coated carbide grade WMP32G for extended tool life

Higher process reliability through advanced coating and grade

The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold coating and the WMP32G grade is designed to deliver consistent edge stability during longer cycles. The coating improves wear resistance at elevated temperatures commonly encountered when machining stainless steels, while the grade balances toughness and hardness to reduce edge chipping. This results in fewer unscheduled insert changes and more predictable tool life, which helps to increase machine uptime and reduce per-part tooling costs.

Consistent surface finish thanks to controlled chip formation

The integrated IR4.5ISO chipbreaker promotes organised chip formation and evacuation when cutting materials in the ISO M group. By avoiding long, stringy chips and reducing the tendency to form a built-up edge, the insert supports a repeatable surface quality and lowers the risk of workpiece rework. For operators and process planners, this translates into fewer interruptions and more reproducible part tolerances across batch runs.

Suited to moderate and robust cutting conditions for stainless steels

Specifically developed for the challenges of machining stainless steels, the insert copes with high work-hardening and heat generation. The WMP32G grade provides a compromise between toughness and wear resistance that is well suited to the M material group, enabling safe chip control and a stable cutting edge even under robust cutting parameters. This makes the insert appropriate for components where material ductility and heat build-up would otherwise shorten tool life.

Straightforward integration and predictable performance in turning systems

Designed as an indexable turning solution, the insert fits standard toolholder systems and delivers repeatable performance across shifts and batches. The predictable wear pattern of the coated grade simplifies inventory planning and helps to standardise production results. Backed by the Walter Tools pedigree, the insert supports process consistency and can be specified where a reliable balance of productivity and surface integrity is required.
