WNMG080404‑FM5 WSM10S Trigon 80° turning insert — Tiger·tec Silver, for rostfreier Stahl and superalloys (Walter Tools)

WNMG080404‑FM5 WSM10S is a negative‑rake Trigon insert designed for stable machining of rostfreier Stahl and heat‑resistant alloys, optimised for secure chip control and long tool life.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for high process security
• WSM10S grade for rostfreier Stahl and superalloys
• Trigon 80° form for robust turning operations
• FM5 chipbreaker for controlled chip formation

Improved cutting performance through advanced coating technology

The Tiger·tec Silver coating combined with the WSM10S substrate provides a balance of thermal resistance and edge stability that suits difficult‑to‑machine materials. For components made from rostfreier Stahl or high‑temperature nickel‑base alloys, the coated carbide supports stable cutting at increased temperatures, reducing the tendency for built‑up edge and premature flank wear. This results in more predictable tool life and fewer unplanned tool changes, which helps maintain production throughput and lowers overall machining costs.

Geometry that increases process reliability and tool life

The insert’s Trigon 80° shape and 0° (negative) rake deliver a strong cutting edge and positive engagement in interrupted cuts. The 0.4 mm corner radius enhances edge robustness during heavy cuts, while the FM5 chipbreaker manages swarf for improved surface finish and safer evacuation. As an indexable insert, it provides quick replacement and repeatable performance, allowing consistent part quality across batches and simplifying tool management in the workshop.

Practical application guidance for production environments

Select this insert for turning operations on rostfreier Stahl and superalloys where reliable chip control and tool life are priorities. The combination of coating and chipbreaker is aimed at preventing edge deformation and ensuring dimensional stability over longer cycles. In process planning, pairing the insert with suitable holder rigidity and coolant strategy will enhance the benefits; the insert’s design supports both continuous and slightly interrupted cuts while preserving surface integrity and repeatability.

Productivity advantages and shop‑floor confidence

Using a dedicated grade like WSM10S reduces process variability and contributes to consistent component quality. The design and coating are intended to lower scrap rates and reduce downtime for tool changes, which translates into improved productivity and cost efficiency. For production teams seeking steady, reproducible results on demanding materials, the insert offers a pragmatic balance of durability and performance.
