WNMG080404-MP3 WPP30G – Trigon 80° turning insert with Tiger‑tec Gold, Walter Tools

The WNMG080404-MP3 WPP30G is a negative Trigon 80° turning insert designed for efficient finishing and medium turning of steel, combining a robust coated carbide grade with an optimised chipbreaker.

• Tiger‑tec Gold coated carbide
• Optimised MP3 chipbreaker
• Trigon 80° geometry for stable cuts
• 0.4 mm corner radius for fine profiles

Consistent productivity through engineered carbide and coating

The combination of the WPP30G carbide grade and the Tiger‑tec Gold coating provides a technically balanced solution for turning steel. The coated hardmetal composition enhances wear resistance while maintaining toughness, which reduces the risk of premature edge chipping under typical turning conditions. As a result, the insert supports longer tool life and fewer interruptions for tool changes, translating into measurable production stability and a lower total cost of machining per workpiece. The description emphasises process reliability and clearly links material properties to operational benefits.

Better chip control and surface quality with the MP3 chipbreaker

Equipped with the MP3 chipbreaker, this insert is optimised for controlled chip formation during medium to finishing turning, which aides both surface finish and operational safety. The Trigon 80° geometry increases insert rigidity and provides stable engagement in the cut, reducing vibration and improving dimensional consistency. The 0.4 mm corner radius supports fine profile detail and helps to achieve repeatable edge line quality on turned components, making the insert well suited to applications where consistent tolerances and good surface integrity are priorities.

Application guidance and compatibility with steel machining

This insert is specified for the Steel group (P) and is produced in a negative relief form (0° (negative)), which often suits conventional turning toolholders and provides secure seating under higher radial loads. The tolerance class M indicates standard dimensional accuracy for reliable seating and repeatability. For customers seeking predictable performance across a range of steel grades, the insert’s combination of geometry, grade and chip control offers a pragmatic balance between wear resistance and toughness, supporting both productivity and part quality in everyday turning operations.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The WNMG080404-MP3 WPP30G is intended primarily for machining steel (ISO group P) and has been developed to handle the heat and chip formation characteristics typical of ferrous turning.

How does the Tiger‑tec Gold coating help in production?
The Tiger‑tec Gold coating on the WNMG080404-MP3 WPP30G improves wear resistance while preserving edge toughness, which supports longer tool life and more consistent performance during continuous turning operations.

What benefits does the MP3 chipbreaker provide?
The MP3 chipbreaker is designed to produce controllable chips and good surface finishes in medium to finishing cuts, reducing the likelihood of entangling chips and easing chip evacuation.

Why choose a Trigon 80° geometry for turning tasks?
Trigon 80° geometry increases insert rigidity and provides strong support in the toolholder, which helps to suppress vibration and maintain dimensional accuracy on turned parts.
