WOMX120608-D57 WKP35S Bohr-/Aufbohrwendeschneidplatte, Tiger·tec Silver – for steel and cast iron | Walter Tools

The WOMX120608-D57 WKP35S is an indexable insert for drilling and boring applications, engineered for productive machining of steel and cast iron with a Trigon 80° form that promotes stable cutting and reliable chip evacuation.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for wear resistance
• Trigon 80° form for stable cutting performance
• Suitable for steel and cast iron machining
• Corner radius 0.8 for robust edge strength

Improved process security through advanced coating and grade

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WKP35S grade delivers enhanced resistance to abrasive wear and thermally induced damage during continuous drilling and boring cycles. This coating technology reduces flank and crater wear, which in turn extends the effective tool life and lowers overall tooling costs. For operations where material mix includes both unalloyed and alloyed steels and cast iron, the coated carbide substrate supports predictable performance and fewer insert changes, contributing to a steadier production flow.

Geometry that stabilises chip formation and surface quality

A Trigon 80° insert shape with an integrated chipbreaker D57 yields controlled chip formation and reliable evacuation when producing holes or enlarging bores. The trigon geometry balances cutting edge strength with entry angles that reduce vibration tendency, helping to maintain consistent surface finish and bore tolerance. The 0.8 mm corner radius reinforces the cutting edge, improving resistance to mechanical shock and enabling more stable feeds without sacrificing surface integrity.

Practical benefits for workshop efficiency and setup

The insert’s compact dimensions and standard indexable format simplify inventory management and reduce setup time during tool changes. The tolerance class M and execution X indicate consistency in production batches, supporting predictable repeatability in clamping and indexed repositioning. Matching this grade to drilling tool bodies designed for Trigon inserts avoids unnecessary adaptations and shortens machine downtime, thereby increasing productive cutting hours per shift.

FAQ

What materials can this insert machine effectively?
The WOMX120608-D57 WKP35S is specified for steel (P) and cast iron (K) machining, utilising the Tiger·tec Silver coating to handle typical heat and abrasion in these material groups.

How does the Trigon 80° form influence drilling performance?
The Trigon 80° geometry provides a robust cutting edge and favourable entry angle, which helps to reduce vibration and supports steady chip flow when using the WOMX120608-D57 WKP35S insert in drilling and boring operations.

What role does the WKP35S grade play in tool life?
The WKP35S grade, part of the Tiger·tec Silver family, combines a coated carbide substrate and optimised microstructure to improve wear resistance and offer predictable tool life for prolonged machining cycles.

Is the corner radius suitable for roughing and finishing passes?
The 0.8 mm corner radius on this insert offers a compromise between edge strength for roughing and the ability to maintain acceptable surface finish during finishing passes with appropriate feed selection.
