The insert features a 35-degree diamond shape (VCGT style) with a positive rake angle of 18 degrees and a honed cutting edge for clean, consistent chip formation. The multilayer PVD coating  -  TiAlN, Al2O3, and Al  -  provides thermal resistance and extended tool life when cutting abrasive and work-hardening materials. Two cutting edges per insert maximize cost efficiency. It is installed and indexed by licensed machining professionals or tool-and-die technicians in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for turning, facing, boring, and back turning operations on stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium as primary workpiece materials, with secondary suitability for general steel. The FM2 chip breaker geometry is optimized for light-to-medium finishing cuts on these material groups, corresponding to ISO material grades M20, S20, and P20. The screw-on holding method and standard G-tolerance ensure consistent, repeatable positioning in compatible toolholders. It is a neutral-hand insert applicable to both left- and right-hand setups depending on toolholder orientation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePVD-coated TiAlN, Al2O3, and Al multilayer  -  engineered for stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFM2 chip breaker geometry with 18-degree positive rake for light-to-medium finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHoned cutting edge style reduces built-up edge and improves surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo usable cutting edges per insert for cost-effective indexing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew-on insert holding with G-tolerance for precise, repeatable seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-use geometry supports turning, facing, boring, and back turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in VCGT-style screw-on toolholders accepting a 35-degree diamond insert with a 3\/8-inch inscribed circle and 3\/16-inch insert thickness. Compatible toolholders must conform to ANSI and ISO standards for VCGT160402 inserts. Verify toolholder pocket geometry and screw size before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key to seat the clamping screw to the toolholder manufacturer's specified torque  -  do not overtighten, as this can fracture the carbide insert. Inspect the toolholder pocket for debris or wear before seating a new insert to ensure proper contact and runout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VCGT160402-FM2 WSM20S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: VCGT3(3)0.5-FM2 WSM20S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Diamond 35 (VCGT, Shape Code V)\u003c\/li\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: WSM20S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN, Al2O3, Al (PVD Process)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: FM2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive, 18 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 mm (0.008 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9.53 mm (0.375 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: 4.76 mm (0.1875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.40 mm (0.173 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClearance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: C\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\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: M20, S20, P20\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-Use Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Turning, Facing, Boring, Back Turning\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\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 7054081\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WALTER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972051173682,"sku":"7054081","price":544.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fe8d7a352663ad4a4f9c9d3b14d8708a.jpg?v=1789962026","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/walter-7054081-turning-insert-vcgt160402-fm2-wsm20s-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
