WCGT030204-X5 WTP35 — drilling/boring indexable insert by Walter Tools (Trigon 80°, coated carbide)

WCGT030204-X5 WTP35 is a hardmetal indexable insert designed for drilling and bore-enlarging operations in production environments

• 80° trigon geometry for stable cutting
• 0.4 mm corner radius for defined edge strength
• 7° clearance angle to reduce rubbing
• Coated carbide grade WTP35 for versatile machining

Consistent hole quality from geometry and edge control

The 80° trigon shape combined with a 0.4 mm corner radius delivers consistent cutting engagement and improved edge robustness in interrupted or deep-hole cuts. The X5 chipbreaker assists in controlled chip formation, reducing the risk of long, stringy chips that can compromise surface finish and tool life. This geometry is particularly beneficial where dimensional repeatability and hole integrity matter most; the insert’s tolerance class G supports predictable fit in standard tool holders. By focusing on geometry and chip control, the insert promotes reliable cycle times and fewer rework operations.

Coated grade engineered for broad-shop use and productivity

The insert carries the WTP35 designation — a coated hardmetal grade from Walter Tools that balances wear resistance and toughness for general machining tasks. Although specific material suitability should be verified against the product matrix, the coated substrate aims to extend edge life under typical drilling and enlarging workloads. For workshops seeking an economical combination of performance and longevity, the coated grade offers improved wear protection while maintaining cutting-edge stability, which in turn contributes to better surface quality and less frequent index changes.

Practical fitment and process integration for production workflows

Marked as WCGT030204-X5, this insert matches common drilling/boring toolholders that accept Trigon 80° plates; plate size and thickness are indicated in the designation to ensure compatibility with existing tool systems. The defined 7° clearance reduces flank contact, lowering heat generation and helping maintain dimensional accuracy over longer runs. For implementation, check holder compatibility and the manufacturer’s matrix to confirm optimal cutting parameters. Shops integrating this insert can expect improved uptime through consistent performance and predictable wear patterns, aiding planning for index changes and inventory management.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The WCGT030204-X5 WTP35 insert uses a WTP35 coated hardmetal grade; material suitability should be checked in the product matrix to confirm applicability to specific workpiece materials.

How does the X5 chipbreaker improve drilling performance?
The X5 chipbreaker promotes controlled chip segmentation during drilling and boring, helping to avoid long chips and supporting safer, more consistent hole-making performance with reduced risk of surface damage.

Is the insert compatible with standard Trigon 80° holders?
The insert’s Trigon 80° shape and designation indicate compatibility with holders designed for 80° trigonal plates; verify holder fit and clamping specifications before assembly.

What does the tolerance class G indicate?
Tolerance class G refers to the manufacturing precision of the insert, supporting predictable seating and repeatable positioning in the toolholder for accurate machining results.

Can the coated grade extend tool life in production use?
The WTP35 coating is intended to enhance wear resistance and robustness, which typically contributes to extended index life under standard drilling and bore-enlarging conditions; final performance depends on cutting data and workpiece material.
