WNMG080408-RP5 WPP10G Drehwendeschneidplatte — turning insert for steel, Tiger‑tec Gold by Walter Tools

A WNMG080408-RP5 WPP10G turning insert engineered for steel machining, combining a trigon 80° shape with 0° negative rake and an RP5 chipbreaker for dependable production performance

• WPP10G Tiger‑tec Gold coating
• Trigon 80° strong geometry
• 0.8 mm corner radius for stability
• RP5 chipbreaker for steel

Consistent wear resistance for long tool life

The Tiger‑tec Gold coating and the WPP10G grade provide a balanced combination of wear resistance and toughness specifically tuned for steel (ISO group P). This coated carbide formulation reduces flank and crater wear in continuous production, which translates into longer periods between indexings and fewer unexpected process interruptions. The result is measurable stability in batch runs and reduced variance in part quality, supporting efficient, predictable machining cycles.

Geometry that improves process security and edge life

The trigon 80° geometry and a 0.8 mm corner radius create a mechanically robust cutting edge that resists chipping during moderate interruption or heavy engagement. The 0° negative rake increases edge strength and helps maintain cutting-edge integrity under higher radial loads. Together these features deliver repeatable dimensional accuracy and make the insert suitable for a wide range of turning tasks where secure cutting and repeatability are priorities.

Optimised chip control for fewer secondary operations

Equipped with the RP5 chipbreaker, the insert guides chip formation to produce manageable, controllable swarf when machining steel. Improved chip control reduces the risk of surface damage and toolholder interference, decreasing time spent on chip clearing and secondary cleaning operations. For process engineers this means improved cycle efficiency and lower likelihood of rework, supporting a leaner machining workflow.

Application guidance and integration in existing tooling systems

The insert is made for standard WNMG toolholders and is compatible with common clamping systems used in turning centres. Selection is straightforward for general turning, semi‑finishing and situations requiring good edge stability. For optimal results, match the WPP10G grade and RP5 chipformer to recommended feeds and speeds for steel; specific parameters depend on component geometry and machine rigidity. If cutting data or parameter tuning is required, Metav Werkzeuge offers application support and can provide recommended cutting charts for given steels and machine setups.
