WCMT06T304-E47 WPP20G drill/reaming indexable insert — Trigon 80° form, for steel machining, Walter Tools

The WCMT06T304-E47 WPP20G is an indexable insert designed for drilling and reaming operations, optimised for machining steel with a Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide grade and a Trigon 80° geometry that enhances hole entry stability and repeatable component tolerances.

Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide grade Trigon 80° insert form 7° clearance angle Suitable for steel machining

High productivity for steel component machining

The coated carbide WPP20G grade delivers a balanced combination of wear resistance and toughness that is particularly effective for machining steel. The Tiger·tec Gold technology reduces flank wear and extends edge life under typical drilling loads, which translates into fewer indexings and less downtime. For production environments where cycle times and tool-change frequency affect throughput, this insert contributes to a measurable increase in process efficiency and consistent hole quality.

Geometry and chip control for stable cutting conditions

The Trigon 80° form combined with a 0.4 mm corner radius and a 7° clearance angle provides a secure cutting edge that reduces thrust and vibration during entry. The E47 chipbreaker is engineered to control chip shape during interrupted cutting and variable depths, improving evacuation and minimising recutting. This geometry aids in maintaining dimensional accuracy and surface finish in bores and reamed holes, while supporting stable cutting forces that protect both tool and spindle.

Coating and material pairing to extend tool life

The insert’s coated carbide composition and the Tiger·tec Gold surface treatment are tuned for the thermal and mechanical demands of steel machining. The coating improves resistance to adhesive wear and thermal softening during high material removal, which in turn supports longer service intervals and more predictable changeovers. In mixed-series production where different steel grades are processed, the insert’s balanced properties help to preserve edge integrity and reduce scrap rates.

Practical integration in production workflows

With a standard WCMT06T304-E47 designation and compact 06 size, the insert fits common holder systems for drilling and reaming applications, allowing straightforward retrofitting into existing tool assemblies. The moderate tolerance class M and standardised form factor simplify inventory management and tool planning. Combined with Metav Werkzeuge’s availability and application advice, the insert can be integrated into both small-batch and continuous manufacturing setups to raise process reliability.
