• Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide for steel machining
• Trigon 80° geometry with 0.4 mm corner radius
• 7° relief angle for secure chip control

Consistent performance through advanced coating and grade selection

The combination of Tiger·tec Gold technology and a coated carbide substrate provides a predictable balance between wear resistance and toughness. The cutting grade WPP20G is optimised for ISO group P (steel), which means the insert copes with the heat and chip formation typical of unalloyed and alloyed steels. This results in fewer unexpected tool changes and a more stable process, supporting continuity on production lines and reducing downtime.

Geometry that secures chip control and dimensional stability

The Trigon 80° shape together with the chipbreaker E47 is designed to channel chips away reliably during drilling and bore-enlarging. The 0.4 mm corner radius and 7° clearance angle give a secure cutting edge that resists chipping while maintaining acceptable surface finish in bore walls. These geometric choices minimise chatter and help to preserve hole tolerances, making the insert suitable for repetitive, precision-orientated operations.

Designed for productivity and predictable tool life

The coated grade and robust geometry deliver process security and a stable cutting edge under a variety of cutting conditions. The insert’s characteristics support higher component throughput by reducing the frequency of index changes and by delivering repeatable performance across batches. For production environments, this translates into more predictable cycle times and easier planning of re-grinding or replacement intervals.

Practical guidance for application and machining strategy

Optimised for steel, the insert performs well in the typical ranges of roughing and semi-finishing when correct feeds and speeds are applied; the WPP20G balance suits a broad set of steel grades. For successful utilisation, select cutting parameters that match the workpiece grade and machining operation, and consider coolant application and holder rigidity to make the most of the insert’s wear characteristics. Where surface finish and hole accuracy are critical, the Trigon geometry and modest corner radius support consistent results.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The WCMT030204-E47 WPP20G insert is intended primarily for steel (ISO group P); the Tiger·tec Gold grade balances wear resistance and toughness for common unalloyed and alloyed steels.

How does the Trigon 80° geometry affect hole quality?
The Trigon 80° form and 0.4 mm corner radius provide a stable cutting edge that supports dimensional accuracy and consistent bore wall finish during drilling and bore-enlarging operations.

What is the role of the chipbreaker E47?
The chipbreaker E47 is designed to control chip evacuation and reduce entanglement, improving process reliability when machining steel with this insert.

Can this insert be used for finishing operations?
The coated carbide grade WPP20G is versatile; while optimised for general machining of steel, final surface finish will depend on machining parameters, holder rigidity and machine stability.

What benefits does the Tiger·tec Gold coating deliver in production?
The Tiger·tec Gold coating enhances wear resistance and edge life, which leads to fewer index changes and greater overall process security in serial production.
