WNMG080408-NMS WSM30S – Indexable turning insert with Tiger·tec Silver coating by Walter Tools

The WNMG080408-NMS WSM30S is a Trigon 80° indexable turning insert engineered for machining rostfreier Stahl and heat‑resistant superalloys in demanding turning applications.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for heat resistance
• Trigon 80° shape with 0.8 mm nose radius
• Designed for rostfreier Stahl and superalloys

High performance for demanding materials

The WSM30S grade, part of the Tiger·tec Silver series, is a coated carbide solution optimised for hard‑to‑machine alloys. Its formulation supports secure chip formation and reduces the tendency for built‑up edge when cutting rostfreier Stahl and high‑temperature alloys, delivering consistent surface quality under thermal load. The combination of the advanced coating technology and the chosen substrate enables sustained cutting conditions, making this insert a rational choice where process stability and reproducible results are priorities.

Proven edge stability and machining consistency

Equipped with the NMS chipbreaker and a 0° (negative) rake, the geometry of the insert increases edge strength for interrupted or heavy cuts while maintaining control over chip flow. The Trigon 80° profile with a 0.8 mm nose radius balances robustness and surface finish, reducing vibration and improving tool life in medium to finishing passes. These characteristics result in fewer tool changes and a more efficient production flow, emphasising measurable productivity gains in series turning operations.

Practical guidance for workshop integration

The insert’s tolerance class M and compact size 08 with thickness 04 allow straightforward indexing in standard toolholders designed for Trigon inserts. For workshop planners, this means quick replacement and compatibility with existing tool systems. When combined with appropriate cutting data for rostfreier Stahl and superalloys, the grade supports predictable wear patterns and repeatable part quality. For customers seeking a balance of performance and operational reliability, this indexable turning insert offers a clear, application‑oriented solution.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited for?
The WNMG080408-NMS WSM30S insert is designed for machining rostfreier Stahl and heat‑resistant superalloys, utilising the Tiger·tec Silver coating to support secure chip formation.

What does the NMS chipbreaker deliver in practice?
The NMS chipbreaker on the WSM30S grade improves chip control and reduces built‑up edge risk, resulting in more consistent surface finish and extended edge life.

How does the Trigon 80° form affect machining?
The Trigon 80° geometry provides increased strength at the cutting edge and good accessibility for profile and facing operations, with the 0.8 mm nose radius offering a balance between robustness and finish quality.

Is the insert compatible with standard toolholders?
Yes; the base designation WNMG080408-NMS corresponds to standard Trigon toolholders that accept size 08 inserts, allowing simple replacement and indexing in common turning systems.

What manufacturing benefits does the Tiger·tec Silver series provide?
Tiger·tec Silver coatings, combined with the WSM30S grade, increase thermal resilience and reproducible performance when machining difficult alloys, supporting stable production cycles and reduced downtime.
