XDGT2405150R-D57 WKP35S indexable milling insert — Tiger·tec Silver, for steel & cast iron | Walter Tools

The XDGT2405150R-D57 WKP35S is an indexable milling insert engineered for high-productivity face and shoulder milling in steel and cast iron, combining a modern coating system with a chipbreaker optimised for stable cut conditions.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for enhanced wear resistance
• WKP35S grade for reliable edge stability
• 15° clearance angle for secure chip control
• Suitable for steel and cast iron machining

Longer cutting life through advanced coating technology

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WKP35S cutting grade provides a robust wear layer on a coated cemented carbide substrate, designed to resist abrasive wear in demanding milling operations. This results in longer intervals between index changes and fewer unscheduled tool interventions, which supports higher machine uptime. The coating’s thermal and mechanical resilience contributes directly to stable edge integrity when machining steel and cast iron, reducing the risk of premature flank wear.

Predictable surface finish and dimensional consistency

A corner radius of 1.5 together with a defined clearance geometry ensures consistent contact conditions between workpiece and insert. This controlled geometry reduces vibration sensitivity and promotes a uniform surface finish across successive passes. The 15° clearance angle helps maintain cutting stability, while the grade’s toughness lowers the probability of chipping during interrupted cuts — a practical advantage for repeatable part quality in production runs.

Efficient chip control for higher metal removal rates

The integrated D57 chipbreaker is tailored for the typical chip forms encountered in P and K groups, enabling effective chip segmentation and evacuation. That chip control, combined with the mechanical stability of the WKP35S grade, allows for aggressive machining parameters where appropriate, improving productivity without compromising process reliability. In sum, the insert supports a balanced trade-off between cutting speed and tool life for typical milling tasks.

Practical application notes for workshop integration

Tolerance class G and the listed execution T mean the insert fits common Walter-compatible toolholders with known repeatability. The plate size 24 and thickness 05 align the insert with industry-standard toolbody configurations, simplifying inventory management. For users requiring exact process data or parameter tables, Metav Werkzeuge can supply cutting recommendations based on workpiece material and machine characteristics to ensure the tool is used in the most efficient operating window.
