WNMG080408-MS3 WSM01 — Trigon 80° indexable insert, Tiger‑tec Silver (Walter Tools)

WNMG080408-MS3 WSM01 is an indexable turning insert designed for demanding machining of heat‑resistant alloys and rostfreier Stahl, offering a balance of cutting‑edge stability and surface finish.

• Tiger‑tec Silver coated carbide grade
• For rostfreier Stahl and superalloys (ISO M, S)
• Trigon 80° insert with 0.8 mm corner radius

Stable performance in difficult materials

The Tiger‑tec Silver coating combined with the WSM01 grade provides enhanced wear resistance and consistent edge life when machining tough materials. The coated carbide composition reduces adhesion and edge build‑up, which is particularly valuable for machining rostfreier Stahl and nickel‑based superalloys where heat and work hardening can compromise tool life. This results in fewer index changes and more predictable cycle times, supporting a rational, cost‑effective production flow.

Geometry that improves process reliability

The trigon 80° shape and MS3 chipbreaker are engineered to direct chips reliably away from the cutting zone, reducing the risk of re‑cut and improving surface integrity. The 0.8 mm corner radius offers a compromise between edge strength and surface quality, allowing modest feed rates while maintaining a fine finish. The negative 0° relief angle provides a robust cutting edge for interrupted cuts or unstable setups, translating geometric design into measurable process stability.

Practical benefits for workshop productivity

This insert supports higher process security and easier process planning: the coating and grade combination promotes stable chip formation while the insert format simplifies toolholding choices. For workshops aiming to reduce setup variability and maximise machine uptime, the insert’s specification helps deliver repeatable results across batches.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The WNMG080408-MS3 WSM01 insert is optimised for rostfreier Stahl and heat‑resistant superalloys (ISO groups M and S), delivering improved edge life and chip control in these challenging materials.

How does the MS3 chipbreaker affect performance?
The MS3 chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation, which contributes to consistent surface quality and reduces the risk of chip recutting when machining tough alloys.

Can this insert be used for roughing and finishing?
With a 0.8 mm corner radius and trigon geometry, the insert suits light to medium finishing and certain roughing operations where a strong cutting edge and good surface integrity are required.

Is the Tiger‑tec Silver coating beneficial for stainless steels?
Yes, the Tiger‑tec Silver coating on the WSM01 grade enhances resistance to adhesion and thermal wear, which is particularly advantageous for rostfreier Stahl machining.

Which toolholders are compatible with this insert format?
The WNMG080408‑style geometry fits standard toolholders for trigon 80° inserts; for machine‑specific holder recommendations, consult process engineering to match clamping and clearance requirements.
