WNMG080408-NMT · WNMG080408-NMT WS10 turning insert (Trigon 80°) – Walter Tools

The WNMG080408-NMT WS10 is a trigon turning insert for general and medium-duty turning, engineered to deliver stable wear performance and consistent chip control in coated-carbide applications.

• Coated carbide grade WS10 for stable wear
• Trigon 80° insert form for versatile turning
• 0.8 mm corner radius for predictable chamfers
• NMT chipbreaker for improved chip control

Boosted productivity through stable wear resistance

The use of the WS10 coated-carbide grade provides a balance of tool life and economy: the coating layer improves wear resistance while maintaining cutting-edge strength, which supports longer intervals between indexings. In production terms this means fewer tool changes and more uptime, directly contributing to improved throughput. The tolerance class M enhances repeatability in toolholders and fixtures, helping to keep process variation low and parts within dimensional tolerance.

Reliable chip control and improved surface finish

The combination of the NMT chipbreaker and the Trigon 80° geometry enables controlled chip formation across a range of feeds and depths of cut. The 0.8 mm corner radius strengthens the cutting edge and helps produce stable chamfers while reducing the tendency for edge chipping. The negative 0° rake (neutral rake) offers robust cutting behaviour on interrupted cuts and when higher feed forces occur, resulting in more consistent surface quality and less rework for downstream operations.

Simple integration and clear application guidance

Dimension codes and form design make the insert straightforward to integrate into standard turning systems: size code 08 and thickness code 04 align with common toolholder families, and the indexable insert format allows fast replacement to reduce tool-change downtime. The insert is part of Walter’s open series; material suitability should be checked against the specific product matrix to ensure optimal cutting conditions. For workshops looking to standardise on a single grade for mixed workloads, this insert offers a practical compromise between performance and versatility.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The WNMG080408-NMT WS10 insert is a coated-carbide grade intended for a wide mix of turning applications; specific material suitability should be checked in the product matrix for the Walter Tools range.

How does the NMT chipbreaker affect machining?
The NMT chipbreaker on this turning insert promotes short, controlled chips and improved evacuation, which helps maintain stable cutting forces and surface finish when using the WNMG080408-NMT WS10.

Can this insert handle interrupted cuts or entry/exit conditions?
Yes, the negative 0° rake and robust 0.8 mm corner radius provide edge strength for interrupted cuts; the WNMG080408-NMT WS10 is designed for enhanced resistance to chipping in such conditions.

What does the size code 08 and thickness code 04 mean for toolholders?
Size code 08 and thickness code 04 correspond to common insert families; compatible toolholders for trigon inserts will accept this form, enabling fast replacement of the WNMG080408-NMT WS10.

Is there any special preparation required before use?
No special preparation is required beyond selecting the correct toolholder and verifying cutting parameters; consult Metav Werkzeuge for recommended speeds and feeds tailored to the Walter Tools WS10 grade.
