VBMT110304-MM4 WSM01 – Rhombic 35° turning insert, Tiger‑tec Silver (Walter Tools)

A VBMT110304-MM4 WSM01 indexable turning insert designed for demanding turning of stainless steels and heat‑resistant alloys, offering stable cutting edges and predictable chip flow

• Tiger‑tec Silver graded WSM01
• MM4 chipbreaker for consistent chip control
• Rhombic 35° form with 5° clearance angle
• Optimised for stainless steels and superalloys

Exceptional grade for difficult-to-machine materials

The WSM01 grade from the Tiger‑tec Silver line is a coated carbide formulation developed to handle rostfreier Stahl and high-temperature alloys. Its composition supports stable chip formation and resists edge wear under elevated temperatures and adhesion tendencies typical of these materials. By selecting this grade, workshops benefit from fewer unscheduled tool changes and a consistent surface finish, which improves process reliability and reduces overall machining cost per part.

Geometry engineered for stable cutting and chip control

The 35° rhombic form combined with a 5° clearance angle provides a versatile cutting profile for a wide range of turning operations. The MM4 chipbreaker is tuned to produce controlled, short chips in interrupted or continuous cuts, reducing risk of chip entanglement and improving workplace safety. The insert’s 0.4 mm corner radius balances edge strength and precision, allowing both robust cutting and repeatable dimensional control on components where tolerance and surface integrity matter.

Productivity through longer tool life and process security

With its coated carbide matrix and application-focused geometry, this indexable tool improves uptime and cutting stability. The robust grade and coating contribute to a longer effective edge life, which translates into fewer insert changes and less downtime. For production environments where cycle time and repeatability are key, this solution supports higher throughput and consistent component quality while preserving fixture and machine resources.

Practical application advice and assurance

This insert is suited to turning operations on materials classified under ISO groups M (rostfreier Stahl) and S (heat-resistant superalloys and titanium), particularly where thermal load and adhesion present challenges. For optimal results, match cutting parameters and coolant strategy to the workpiece material and machine capability. If process parameters require fine-tuning, Metav Werkzeuge provides application support and can advise on recommended feeds, speeds and toolholder choices to maximise performance with this Walter Tools insert.
