VNGG160404M-MN3 WN10 — Rhombic 35° turning insert by Walter Tools, MN3 chipbreaker, 0° negative rake

VNGG160404M-MN3 WN10 is a rhombic 35° turning insert designed for general turning where controlled chip formation and reliable edge behaviour are required

• Rhombic 35° geometry for versatile turning
• 0° negative rake angle for stable cutting
• 0.4 mm corner radius for predictable finishes
• Uncoated carbide grade WN10 for general use

Predictable chip control for reliable productivity

The rhombic 35° geometry combined with the MN3 chipbreaker provides controlled chip formation across a range of typical turning tasks. This results in a more consistent metal removal process and fewer interruptions for chip clearing, which supports smoother machine cycles and better overall productivity. The 0.4 mm corner radius helps maintain edge strength and contributes to steady surface quality during continuous cuts. As the insert is an uncoated carbide grade, it offers straightforward cutting behaviour; checking the manufacturer’s product matrix for the exact workpiece material recommendation is advised to ensure optimal performance.

Consistent accuracy and tool life through conservative geometry

A 0° negative rake angle and a clearly defined tolerance class G give this insert a conservative cutting profile that prioritises repeatability and edge stability. The compact plate size and thickness 04 provide a rigid interface with standard toolholders, aiding in dimensional accuracy and predictable wear patterns. For operations where process reliability and reproducible results matter, this turning grade provides a straightforward solution that reduces variability and supports predictable maintenance intervals.

Practical guidance for selection and integration

When specifying an insert for workshop or production use, consider the combination of geometry, chipbreaker and grade. The WN10 grade is an uncoated tungsten carbide formulation; its suitability for specific materials should be verified against the product matrix. The MN3 chipbreaker is engineered for controlled chips in typical turning scenarios, while the rhombic form allows flexible cutting directions. For tailored setup advice and matching to cutting data, Metav Werkzeuge offers application guidance and technical clarification to ensure the insert aligns with machining parameters and workpiece material.
