It carries a 0.2496 inch cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 1.0000 inch, making it well suited for moderate to deep groove profiles. The insert is coated with TiAlN via a PVD process using the WU25PT manufacturer grade, which delivers strong wear resistance and thermal stability at the cutting edge. With a neutral hand orientation and a positive rake geometry, this insert reduces cutting forces and extends tool life across demanding workpiece materials. Licensed machinists and CNC turning specialists are the primary installers and users of this insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is rated for primary use on superalloys and titanium (ISO material code S), with secondary suitability for steel, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, and cast iron (ISO codes P, M, K, N, H). It fits turning applications in aerospace, energy, and general machining shops where tight groove tolerances are required. The PT chip breaker geometry supports controlled chip evacuation in these difficult-to-machine materials. The neutral hand designation means it operates with equal effectiveness on standard right-hand and left-hand toolholders designed for this insert style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbide substrate with PVD-applied TiAlN coating for wear resistance on superalloys and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWU25PT manufacturer grade optimized for high-temperature alloy cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.2496 inch (6.34 mm) cutting width with a maximum 1.0000 inch depth of cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake geometry reduces cutting forces and heat generation at the edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePT chip breaker promotes reliable chip control in gummy or stringy materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo cutting edges per insert; neutral hand for flexible toolholder compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClamp-style insert holding method for secure, repeatable seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in WMT-series clamp-style grooving toolholders that accept a Size 6 insert.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing the insert. Use the correct clamp screw torque per the toolholder manufacturer's documentation  -  do not over-torque, as this can fracture the carbide. Inspect the insert pocket and clamp for chips or debris before seating the new insert to ensure proper contact and edge position.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: WMT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: WMT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Width (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2496 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Width (mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.34 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: WU25PT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0299 inches\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: PT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1270 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2390 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2390 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1800 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGage Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1250 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Superalloys and Titanium (ISO code S)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Non-Ferrous Metal, Cast Iron (ISO codes P, M, K, N, H)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI\/ISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: WMTS250I6P08PT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.025 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: WIDIA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4118596\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WIDIA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67911131070770,"sku":"4118596","price":600.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f6936948e4e4b4688e289981a8c8798a.jpg?v=1791204713","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/widia-4118596-wmt-grooving-insert-0-2496-in-carbide-pvd","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
