WNMG080404-FP5 WPP20G turning insert — Tiger·tec Gold, Trigon 80°, for Stahl — Walter Tools

The WNMG080404-FP5 WPP20G is a coated carbide turning insert designed for general steel turning with a trigon 80° geometry and an FP5 chipformer for controlled swarf evacuation

• Tiger·tec Gold coating for extended tool life
• Suitable for Stahl machining (ISO P)
• Trigon 80° geometry for stable cutting
• FP5 chipformer for reliable chip control

Higher productivity through advanced grade technology

The Tiger·tec Gold WPP20G grade combines a wear-resistant, coated carbide matrix with an optimised microstructure to extend tool life and maintain a steady cutting edge. By using a coated substrate specifically tuned for Stahl, the insert reduces flank wear and maintains dimensional stability over longer tool paths. The result is measurable gains in productivity and fewer index changes, which helps to keep manufacturing cycles predictable and throughput high.

Reliable chip control and stable cutting geometry

The FP5 chipbreaker, paired with the Trigon 80° shape and a 0° (negative rake) configuration, delivers consistent swarf formation and evacuation in turning operations. A corner radius of 0.4 mm supports edge robustness and contributes to repeatable surface finishes, while the trigon form provides good rigidity in interrupted cuts. These design elements together improve process security and reduce the risk of chatter, enabling stable feeds and cuts in a variety of turning scenarios.

Practical benefits for workshop and production planners

This insert is specified for the ISO P group and is therefore suited to a broad range of Stahl grades, from unalloyed to alloyed steels. With a medium tolerance class (M) it offers a balance between precision and flexibility for general turning tasks. The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold coating and the FP5 chipformer makes the component particularly effective where consistent surface quality and long edge life are required, reducing tool change frequency and lowering per-part tooling costs. For operations seeking a dependable indexable solution, the insert contributes to predictable process windows and efficient machine utilisation.

FAQ

What materials is this turning insert suitable for?
The insert is specified for ISO P and is therefore suitable for machining a wide range of Stahl grades; the Tiger·tec Gold WPP20G grade is optimised for these materials.

What advantage does the FP5 chipbreaker offer?
The FP5 chipformer ensures repeatable chip shapes and reliable evacuation, which reduces the risk of swarf-related interruptions and helps to secure surface finish consistency.

How does the Trigon 80° geometry affect cutting?
The Trigon 80° form provides increased insert rigidity for stable cutting, particularly beneficial in interrupted cuts and when maintaining consistent tool life.

Is this insert applicable for finishing operations?
Yes; the combination of a 0.4 mm corner radius and a coated grade delivers good surface quality, making the insert suitable for many finishing passes in Stahl.

What does the tolerance class M indicate?
Tolerance class M represents a medium tolerance level, offering a compromise between dimensional precision and general-purpose flexibility for turning operations.
