WCGT040202-X5 WTP35 — Drill/Boring indexable insert, Trigon 80°, 7° relief — Walter Tools

The WCGT040202-X5 WTP35 is a coated-carbide indexable insert engineered for drilling and boring tasks where controlled chip evacuation and repeatable bore quality are required.

High-performance coated carbide WTP35
Trigon 80° geometry for stability
7° relief angle for positive cutting
0.2 mm corner radius for edge strength

Productivity gains from Trigon geometry and chip control

The Trigon 80° form offers a robust cutting profile that reduces vibration in interrupted cuts and enhances axial stability in bore operations. Combined with the X5 chipbreaker, this geometry promotes consistent chip segmentation and evacuation, which reduces rework and increases throughput. Emphasis on repeatability means fewer tool changes and less downtime, supporting higher process efficiency on production lines that demand steady cycle times and predictable results.

Durable cutting performance with the WTP35 grade

The WTP35 composition is a coated carbide grade optimised by Walter for general drilling and boring applications; it is designed to provide stable chip formation and good wear resistance. The coating enhances edge robustness and thermal stability under continuous cutting, enabling reliable performance across a range of common workpiece materials. For planners and production engineers this translates into predictable tool life and easier integration into existing cutting data tables when compared with uncoated alternatives.

Precision edge geometry for bore quality and tool life

A 7° relief angle and a 0.2 mm corner radius balance sharpness and mechanical strength at the cutting edge. The moderate relief angle ensures positive cutting action with controllable feed forces, while the corner radius supports a durable cutting edge that resists chipping in cyclic loads. With tolerance class G and the Trigon plate form, dimensional consistency is maintained, helping to achieve reproducible bore diameters and improved surface finish in serial production.

Practical selection and application guidance

Selection should be aligned with the intended workpiece material and the machine’s rigidity: consult the provided material matrix to confirm suitability for specific alloys. The indexable insert’s coated carbide chemistry and the X5 chipbreaker make it a solid choice for general-purpose drilling and light roughing, but application-specific testing is recommended for non-standard alloys or high-temperature conditions. When process optimisation is necessary, the combination of geometry and grade supports steady improvements in cycle economy and overall machining quality.

FAQ

What machining tasks is this insert optimised for?
The insert is optimised for drilling and boring operations where controlled chip formation and stable cutting are priorities; the WCGT040202-X5 WTP35 grade emphasises productive machining with consistent tool life.

Which materials can be machined with this grade?
The WTP35 grade is a coated carbide designed for a broad workpiece spectrum; users should check the product matrix to confirm suitability for specific materials before series use.

How does the 0.2 mm corner radius affect bore finish?
A 0.2 mm corner radius increases edge strength and reduces the risk of chipping, contributing to consistent bore diameters and improved surface finish during serial production when using the WCGT040202-X5 WTP35 insert.

Is the X5 chipbreaker suitable for interrupted cuts?
Yes, the X5 chipbreaker is intended to promote reliable chip control and segmentation, which supports interrupted cuts and enhances chip evacuation in drilling and boring operations.
