WNMG100612-RP5 WPP10G — Indexable turning insert for steel (Walter Tools)

A WNMG100612-RP5 WPP10G indexable insert designed for productive steel turning, offering robust edge stability and optimised chip control for machining operations

• Tiger·tec Gold coating
• RP5 chipbreaker for stable chips
• Trigon 80° geometry
• Corner radius 1.2 mm

Boosted productivity through advanced coating and grade

The coated WPP10G grade, part of the Tiger·tec Gold family, is formulated to improve durability when machining steel. The combination of a wear-resistant coating and a tough substrate leads to fewer insert changes and longer tool life, which translates into lower process costs and less downtime. By reducing flank wear and maintaining a stable cutting edge, the insert supports higher material removal rates and consistent cycle times, making it suitable for serial production where repeatable performance matters.

Stable chip control and improved surface quality

The RP5 chipbreaker and Trigon 80° geometry work together to produce predictable chip formation and evacuation, reducing the risk of chip re-cutting and vibration. A controlled chip flow contributes directly to a more uniform surface finish and reduces secondary finishing effort. The 1.2 mm corner radius provides a robust cutting edge that withstands interrupted cuts, while the negative clearance (0°) geometry helps maintain dimensional stability during heavy cuts.

Easy integration with standard turning tool systems

The WNMG form is an established indexable insert profile that integrates into common toolholder systems, enabling straightforward replacement and indexing. The tolerance class M ensures consistent seating and repeatable positioning, aiding process stability across multiple tool changes. Consistent insert geometry and grade selection simplify tool management and support predictable machining results in both single- and multi-shift operations.

Optimised for a wide range of steel applications

This insert is explicitly tuned for the ISO P material group, covering unalloyed and alloyed steels encountered in general engineering and production workshops. The WPP10G sort balances wear resistance and toughness—suitable for a broad spectrum of finishing and medium-turning tasks on steel. Where chip control and edge security are priorities, this solution provides dependable performance and improved overall machining economy.
