WK20PM PVD Inserts

WK20PM PVD inserts are the perfect solution for medium to rough machining applications in grey cast iron, nodular/ ductile cast iron and Compacted Graphite Iron (CGI). Whether face milling, shoulder milling, slotting or copy milling, these high-performance inserts are engineered to deliver the reliability and consistency you want across automotive, general engineering and energy segments. This PVD-coated grade enhances cutting edge strength and wear resistance when machining short-chipping materials with or without coolant.

Along with improved tool life, higher productivity and dependable results, the WK20PM grade features High-Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HiPIMS) coating and a thick PVD coating with gold top layer that:

• Produces a smoother insert surface and optimal layer adhesion
• Enhances cutting edge strength and wear resistance
• Provides consistent, repeatable performance with longer tool life
• Allows for easy wear identification, maximizing cutting edge lifespan
• Supports high metal removal rates through increased cutting speeds
