WOMX080408-D57 WKP25S Trigon 80° indexable insert for steel and cast iron machining — Walter Tools

A precision Trigon 80° indexable insert in WKP25S grade, designed for boring and counterboring operations in steel and cast iron with Tiger‑tec Silver coating.

• Tiger‑tec Silver coating for long tool life
• Designed for steel and cast iron machining
• Trigon 80° form, 0.8 mm corner radius
• D57 chipbreaker for consistent chip control

High stability and predictable tool life for machining lines

The WKP25S grade, integrated into the Tiger‑tec Silver series, offers a balance of wear resistance and toughness that delivers predictable tool life in production environments. The coated carbide composition is optimised to withstand the thermal loads typical of machining steel and cast iron, which reduces unplanned tool changes and keeps cycle times steady. The trigon geometry provides a robust cutting edge while the 0.8 mm corner radius increases edge strength; together these characteristics translate into fewer interruptions and a smoother production flow.

Controlled chip formation improves process reliability

Equipped with the D57 chipbreaker, this insert focuses on consistent chip control, a key factor for automated or semi-automated boring operations. Stable chip breaking reduces the risk of workpiece damage and minimises interaction with downstream handling systems, which supports higher process security and easier machine integration. For operators less familiar with insert geometry: a chipbreaker channels and breaks chips into manageable lengths, preventing tangling and improving surface finish while lowering the likelihood of tool wear caused by poor chip evacuation.

Geometry and tolerance for repeatable precision

The Trigon 80° plate form combined with tolerance class M and the specified plate thickness ensures secure clamping and repeatable positioning in standard toolholders. These mechanical characteristics contribute to consistent dimensional results across batches, which is particularly valuable when turning or boring parts to tight tolerances. The insert’s designation and size coding make replacement and inventory management straightforward, reducing setup time and simplifying tool procurement for production planners.
