WNMG080404-FW5 WPP20G turning indexable insert — Trigon 80°, Tiger·tec Gold by Walter Tools

The WNMG080404-FW5 WPP20G is a trigon 80° turning insert designed for robust steel machining, combining a coated carbide grade with a specialised chipbreaker for stable, productive cutting.

• WPP20G grade with Tiger·tec Gold coating
• Trigon 80° geometry for robust cutting
• 0.4 mm corner radius for versatile finishing
• 0° negative rake for stable chip control

High-performance grade for demanding steel machining

The coated carbide WPP20G grade, developed within the Tiger·tec Gold family, provides a balanced combination of wear resistance and toughness that is particularly effective for Stahl (ISO group P). This balance reduces flank wear while maintaining edge strength under varying cutting conditions. The coated substrate and layered topography of the grade improve thermal and mechanical stability during interrupted and continuous cuts, which supports longer tool life and fewer insert changes — a clear economic advantage in serial production.

Geometry and chip control that simplify set-up and increase uptime

The Trigon 80° shape with a 0.4 mm corner radius and the FW5 chipbreaker are engineered to produce predictable chip forms and consistent cutting forces. The 0° negative rake contributes to positive edge support, improving stability when facing heavy cross-sections or mixed-material batches. Together these features reduce vibration and minimise the risk of premature edge failure, translating into fewer stoppages and a smoother production flow for turning applications on unalloyed and alloyed Stahl.

Application-focused benefits and easy process integration

Integration into existing toolholders is straightforward owing to the standard ISO designation; the insert’s form and tolerance class M support consistent seating and repeatable positioning. The combination of Trigon geometry and the Tiger·tec Gold coating means the insert suits finishing and medium roughing passes on components where surface quality and dimensional consistency are required. Where process reliability is essential, this insert helps achieve reproducible results with reduced inspection cycles and lower scrap rates.

FAQ

What material range is the insert intended for?
The insert is primarily designed for Stahl (ISO group P); the WPP20G grade and Tiger·tec Gold coating are optimised for typical steel cutting conditions.

How does the FW5 chipbreaker affect machining?
The FW5 chipbreaker produces controlled chip forms and reduces built-up edge risk, improving surface finish and machining stability when using the WNMG080404-FW5 WPP20G insert from Walter Tools.

Is the Trigon 80° geometry suitable for finishing operations?
Yes, the Trigon 80° form combined with a 0.4 mm corner radius is suitable for finishing and medium cutting depths where both edge strength and surface quality are required.

Can this insert be used for interrupted cuts?
The 0° negative rake and the robust WPP20G grade provide enhanced edge support, making the insert suitable for many interrupted cutting scenarios on Stahl.

What tolerance and repeatability can be expected?
The tolerance class M ensures consistent seating and repeatable positioning in compatible toolholders, supporting reproducible dimensional results across repeated insert indexing.
