XDMT2506160R-F55 WKP35S milling indexable insert by Walter Tools — Tiger·tec Silver, for steel & cast iron

XDMT2506160R-F55 WKP35S is a coated milling insert designed for productive machining of steel and cast iron with optimised chip control and wear resistance

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for long life
• WKP35S coated carbide grade
• F55 chipbreaker for reliable chip formation
• 15° free cutting angle and 1.6 mm corner radius

High process reliability through optimised coating and grade

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WKP35S carbide grade delivers stable wear behaviour under the thermal and mechanical loads typical of steel and cast iron machining. The coating reduces abrasive wear and thermal softening, which translates into consistent tool life and predictable performance across batch runs. For production planning, this means fewer tool changes and improved uptime.

Predictable chip control and surface quality for efficient production

Equipped with the F55 chipbreaker and a 15° free cutting angle, the insert promotes short, controlled chips when cutting steels and cast irons. Controlled chip formation improves evacuation and reduces the risk of built-up edge, resulting in better surface finish and reduced rework. The specified 1.6 mm corner radius supports stable cutting at mid to higher depths of cut while maintaining edge robustness.

Practical benefits and applicability in machining setups

The insert is sized for common milling cutters and is intended for productive roughing and semi-finishing operations on steel (P) and cast iron (K) in accordance with ISO material groupings. As a coated indexable solution, it enables quick replacement and reduces setup downtime; the insert grade and geometry are selected to balance productivity and edge life, making it suitable for shop-floor environments aiming to maximise output while keeping process costs under control.

FAQ

What materials is the XDMT2506160R-F55 WKP35S suited for?
The insert is designed for machining steel (P) and cast iron (K) in line with ISO material groupings; the WKP35S grade and Tiger·tec Silver coating are tuned for these materials.

How does the F55 chipbreaker improve machining?
The F55 chipbreaker produces short, controllable chips that aid evacuation and reduce the likelihood of built-up edge, improving surface finish and process stability with this milling insert.

What role does the 1.6 mm corner radius play?
A 1.6 mm corner radius increases edge strength and supports higher depths of cut while maintaining acceptable surface quality, which is beneficial during roughing and semi-finishing.

Is the insert compatible with standard milling cutters?
The insert shape and designation are common for indexable milling systems; compatibility depends on the cutter pocket and clamping system—confirm the cutter specification with Metav Werkzeuge for retrofit checks.

Which series does this grade belong to and what is its main advantage?
This grade is part of the Tiger·tec Silver series; its main advantage is improved wear resistance and thermal stability, which supports longer tool life in steel and cast iron machining.
