ZDGT150440R-K85 WXN15 milling insert — Walter Tools, sharp uncoated grade for non-ferrous metals, 15° relief

ZDGT150440R-K85 WXN15 is an indexable milling insert designed for high-quality finishing and productive cutting of non-ferrous materials within the Walter N-System

• Uncoated solid carbide grade WXN15
• Optimised for non-ferrous metals (N)
• 15° relief angle for smooth cutting
• 4 mm corner radius for enhanced stability

Precise, sharp geometry for cleaner cuts and fewer built-up edges

The ZDGT150440R-K85 WXN15 insert features an uncoated carbide composition specifically developed for machining non-ferrous metals such as aluminium, copper and brass. The sharply honed cutting edge reduces material adhesion and improves surface finish, while the K85 chipbreaker directs swarf reliably away from the toolpath. This combination delivers reduced cycle times and a lower risk of build-up on the edge, especially in finishing passes where precision and repeatability matter.

Consistent chip control and dependable edge life for productive series work

The insert’s geometry, including a 15° relief angle, supports gentle entry and exit from the cut, which minimises impact forces and helps maintain a consistent cutting edge. The K85 chipbreaker is optimised for non-ferrous alloys to avoid long, stringy chips and to encourage predictable chip formation. As a result, the toolholder and fixture loads remain stable, cutting forces are more uniform and rework due to surface contamination is reduced, improving overall process reliability.

System compatibility and practical benefits for workshop use

Designed for integration with the Walter N-System, this insert suits users seeking quick indexability and straightforward tool management. The 4 mm corner radius provides form stability for interrupted cuts and light profiling, while the tolerance class G ensures dimensional consistency across multiple index changes. Together these features support reproducible results in small- to medium-batch production, delivering both operational ease and improved part quality.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for? The ZDGT150440R-K85 WXN15 insert is designed for non-ferrous metals (ISO group N) such as aluminium, copper and brass, where sharp, uncoated edges reduce material adhesion.

Is the insert coated or uncoated? This grade is an uncoated carbide type (WXN15), chosen to preserve a very sharp cutting edge for NE-metal applications.

How does the K85 chipbreaker affect machining? The K85 chipbreaker promotes short, controllable chips in non-ferrous alloys, improving chip control and reducing the chance of surface contamination from built-up edge.

Can this insert be used in the Walter N-System toolholders? Yes, the insert is manufactured for compatibility with the Walter N-System, enabling rapid indexability and consistent positioning in modular tool systems.

What dimension ensures form stability during interrupted cuts? The 4 mm corner radius provides enhanced edge strength and form stability, particularly useful in interrupted or light profiling operations.
