Milling indexable insert XDMT2506160R-F55 WSM35G — Walter Tools; Tiger·tec Gold coating, 1.6 mm corner radius (for stainless steels & superalloys)

XDMT2506160R-F55 WSM35G is a Walter Tools milling indexable insert designed for demanding roughing and finishing operations in stainless steels and high‑temperature alloys

• Tiger·tec Gold coated carbide grade WSM35G
• Optimised for stainless steels and superalloys
• 15° relief angle for secure cutting performance
• 1.6 mm corner radius for robust edge stability

High‑performance grade for demanding materials

The insert is built around the WSM35G carbide grade and the Tiger·tec Gold coating, a combination engineered for machining stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys. This coating technology improves thermal stability and wear resistance, which supports consistent chip formation and delays edge breakdown. For operations where materials tend to work‑harden or generate high cutting temperatures, the hardened surface finish of the insert helps maintain dimensional accuracy and reduces the risk of premature tool changeovers.

Geometry that promotes uninterrupted production

The tool geometry—including a 15° relief angle, the F55 chipbreaker and a 1.6 mm corner radius—is tailored to balance cutting forces and edge life. The chipbreaker controls chip flow for interrupted and continuous cuts, lowering the chance of built‑up edge, while the larger corner radius strengthens the cutting edge for longer service intervals. These features translate into fewer tool swaps and more continuous production time, improving throughput and reducing machining costs per component.

Practical benefits in shopfloor settings

With a plate size of 25 mm and a standard insert thickness code of 06, the design supports straightforward integration into common milling cutters and bodies. The insert’s specification emphasises process reliability and repeatable results in series production, making it suitable for batch machining or mixed‑lot work where consistent surface quality and tool life are critical. Specification clarity and grade selection reduce set‑up time and simplify tool management in the tooling inventory.

Selection advice and application scope

The carbide grade and chipbreaker combination are particularly suited to materials classified under ISO group M (stainless steels) and S (heat‑resistant superalloys and titanium) when moderate to heavy cutting conditions are applied. For customers seeking improved component finish and edge stability in those materials, the insert offers a practical route to higher productivity. For further machining parameters or tailored recommendations, technical consultation is available from Metav Werkzeuge to match cutter bodies and machine capability with the insert geometry.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert suitable for?
The XDMT2506160R‑F55 WSM35G insert is designed for stainless steels (ISO M) and heat‑resistant superalloys/titanium (ISO S), where thermal stability and secure chip control are required.

What does the WSM35G grade provide in practice?
WSM35G, combined with Tiger·tec Gold coating, delivers improved wear resistance and stable cutting edges under elevated temperatures, supporting reliable chip formation and prolonged tool life.

How does the 1.6 mm corner radius affect performance?
A 1.6 mm corner radius increases edge strength and reduces the risk of edge chipping, which is beneficial for robust cutting conditions and when longer tool life is a priority.

Is the insert compatible with standard Walter milling cutters?
The insert designation XDMT2506160R‑F55 matches common Walter cutter bodies designed for 25 mm‑class plates; confirm body and seat geometry with the cutter documentation or Metav Werkzeuge for precise fitment.

What is the role of the F55 chipbreaker?
The F55 chipbreaker controls chip shape and evacuation, helping to avoid tangled chips and improving process stability in a range of cutting conditions for both roughing and finishing.
