VCMT110304-RM4 WSM10S turning insert — Rhombic 35°, 0.4 mm nose radius | Walter Tools

VCMT110304-RM4 WSM10S is a coated carbide turning insert engineered for robust machining of rostfreier Stahl and high-temperature alloys in demanding turning applications

• Tiger·tec Silver coated carbide grade WSM10S
• RM4 chipbreaker for stable chip control
• Rhombic 35° geometry for versatile turning
• Optimised for rostfreier Stahl and superalloys

Stable cutting in demanding materials

The WSM10S grade within the Tiger·tec Silver series provides a coated carbide chemistry optimised for heat resistance and edge stability. Used for machining rostfreier Stahl and nickel‑based alloys, this grade reduces the risk of built-up edge and improves tool life under high thermal load. The combination of coating and carbide microstructure supports predictable wear behaviour, which in turn reduces unexpected downtime and contributes to a steady production flow.

Reliable chip control and surface consistency

The integrated RM4 chipbreaker is designed to produce short, controllable chips even at higher depths of cut, which directly improves safety and machine uptime. Paired with a stable cutting edge, the insert delivers consistent surface quality and repeatable results across components. For production environments where reproducibility and low scrap rates matter, this geometry and chip control concept provides tangible process benefits without complex adjustments.

Geometry that broadens application and access

The rhombic 35° shape with a 0.4 mm nose radius and 7° clearance enables access to a range of turning tasks from finishing to medium cutting, offering a balance between precision and robustness. The relatively small nose radius enhances surface finish potential while the geometry supports secure clamping in standard toolholders. This makes the insert well suited to mixed-production shops seeking a versatile option that handles fine tolerances and occasional interrupted cuts.

Practical guidance for integration and use

Material designation S / M signals suitability for heat‑resistant superalloys (S) and rostfreier Stahl (M) according to ISO groupings; this simplifies tooling selection when material data is known. The insert’s tolerance class M and execution T ensure compatibility with common turning toolholders. For optimised cutting data and feed‑speed settings tailored to specific machines and workpieces, Metav Werkzeuge’s consultants can provide application‑matched recommendations to achieve the best balance of productivity and tool life.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The VCMT110304-RM4 WSM10S insert is specified for material groups S and M, making it suitable for heat‑resistant superalloys and rostfreier Stahl in turning applications.

How does the RM4 chipbreaker affect production?
RM4 provides controlled, short chips that improve process stability and reduce interruptions; the RM4 chip control supports consistent surface finish when using the WSM10S grade.

What benefit does the Tiger·tec Silver coating offer?
The Tiger·tec Silver coating increases thermal resistance and edge strength, extending tool life and maintaining cutting performance under higher temperatures.

Which toolholder type is recommended for this geometry?
The rhombic 35° shape and execution T are compatible with standard turning toolholders designed for VCMT‑style inserts; check holder clamping geometry for secure seating.

Is this insert suitable for interrupted cuts or heavy roughing?
The combination of the WSM10S grade and RM4 chipbreaker offers robustness for mixed operations; for heavy roughing, consult Metav Werkzeuge for optimised parameters.
