WCGT080408-MN2 WNN10 trigon insert for drilling and turning, Walter Tools — coated carbide, MN2 chipbreaker

WCGT080408-MN2 WNN10 is an indexable trigon insert designed for combined drilling and turning applications, offering a robust coated-carbide construction and a chipbreaker optimised for consistent material removal.

• Coated carbide for long tool life
• Trigon 80° geometry for stable engagement
• Corner radius 0.8 mm for reliable edge strength
• 7° clearance angle for smooth entry

Maximise process reliability with consistent chip control

The insert’s chipbreaker MN2 is engineered to produce predictable, controllable chips, which reduces the risk of built-up edge and machine stoppages. The coated carbide substrate enhances wear resistance under interrupted cuts, meaning fewer insert changes and less downtime. For users planning production runs, this performance translates into a measurable increase in machine availability and process stability. Check the manufacturer’s product matrix to confirm compatibility with specific workpiece materials before application.

Simplified setup and secure cutting geometry for repeatable results

With a trigon 80° form and a corner radius 0.8 mm, the geometry promotes stable seating in the toolholder and good edge strength during entry and exit. The 7° clearance reduces rubbing and helps maintain cutting temperatures within an optimal range, improving surface finish and reducing flank wear. These geometric choices make toolpath programming and fixture set-up more predictable, which in turn shortens lead times in the set-up phase and supports repeatable part quality.

Optimised for production: balance of economy and performance

This insert is supplied in a tolerance class G, providing consistent dimensions for high-repeatability mounting and minimal index offset. The coated-carbide grade of the WNN10 series aims to strike a balance between wear resistance and sharpness, offering a cost-effective solution for many machining tasks. Because the material specification is catalogue-dependent, process planners are advised to consult the technical documentation to select the precise grade that matches cutting speed and workpiece material requirements.

FAQ

What machining tasks is this insert intended for?
The insert is designed for combined drilling and turning operations where a trigon 80° geometry and chipbreaker MN2 improve chip control and cutting stability.

Is the WCGT080408-MN2 WNN10 suitable for stainless or hardened steels?
Material suitability should be verified against the Walter Tools product matrix; the WNN10 is a coated-carbide grade intended for broad applications but exact performance depends on the selected grade variant.

How does the MN2 chipbreaker benefit production runs?
The MN2 chipbreaker produces consistent chip shapes that reduce interruptions, improving machine uptime and enabling longer uninterrupted cutting periods.

What does tolerance class G mean for everyday use?
Tolerance class G indicates precise, repeatable dimensions for the insert, which helps ensure consistent seating and predictable machining results when indexing inserts.

Can the insert geometry improve surface finish?
Yes — the combination of a 7° clearance angle and optimised corner radius contributes to smoother tool entry and exit, often resulting in improved workpiece surface quality.
