The insert features a multilayer PVD coating combining TiAlN, Al2O3, and ZrCN for extended tool life and heat resistance. With a 3\/8 inch inscribed circle, 1\/32 inch corner radius, and a 35-degree diamond (rhombic) geometry, this insert delivers controlled chip formation across a positive rake angle of 12 degrees. It carries manufacturer grade WSM20 and belongs to the Tiger-tec Series VBMT-PS5, indicating performance optimization for stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install this insert in production turning centers and manual lathes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is engineered primarily for turning, facing, boring, and back turning operations on stainless steel and superalloys including titanium, classified under ISO material codes M and S. It also performs as a secondary grade on steel (ISO code P), covering material grades M20, P20, and S20. The PS5 chip breaker geometry and chamfered, honed cutting edge style support stable chip control during interrupted and continuous cuts. Applications include general production turning in aerospace, oil and gas, and precision machining shops where stainless and high-temp alloys are common workpiece materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMultilayer PVD coating: TiAlN, Al2O3, and ZrCN for wear and heat resistance in high-temp alloy cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e35-degree diamond (rhombic) insert shape with positive rake and positive side clearance for reduced cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePS5 chip breaker with chamfered and honed cutting edge for controlled chip formation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo cutting edges per insert; neutral hand orientation for flexible toolholder compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-lock insert holding method for secure, repeatable seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMulti-use application: turning, facing, boring, and back turning in a single insert geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for VBMT-style toolholders conforming to ANSI and ISO standards.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing the insert. Use the manufacturer-specified torx or hex key for the clamping screw to avoid stripping the screw seat  -  do not overtighten by feel alone; follow the toolholder manufacturer torque specification for the screw size used. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or debris before seating a new insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: WSM20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grades\u003c\/strong\u003e: M20, P20, S20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN, Al2O3, ZrCN (Multilayer PVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: V - Diamond (Rhombic) 35 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/32 inch (0.0315 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16.61 mm (0.654 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inch (0.1875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.173 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.49 mm (0.098 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 degrees (Positive)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: PS5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel, Superalloys, Titanium (ISO M, S)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel (ISO P)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VBMT332\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VBMT160408\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tiger-tec VBMT-PS5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: WALTER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5619946\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WALTER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52072991523122,"sku":"5619946","price":391.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3416acbf4ab74eeaef7cc858c1b80956.jpg?v=1790050191","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/walter-5619946-turning-insert-vbmt332-carbide-wsm20","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
