WNMG TM-25 FOR STEEL
WNMG TM-25 FOR STEEL
Cargo Carbide WNMG TM Steel Grade Insert – CO25S Grade is a negative-style carbide turning insert designed for efficient CNC machining of steel components. The WNMG geometry provides multiple usable cutting edges, making it a cost-effective choice for production turning, facing, roughing, and general steel machining applications.
The CO25S grade is offered for steel-turning applications where dependable cutting performance and consistent tool life are required. Combined with the TM geometry, this insert is suitable for a wide range of CNC turning conditions, from general material removal to semi-finishing operations depending on the workpiece, cutting parameters, and machining setup.
The WNMG insert can be used with compatible WNMG turning tool holders on CNC lathes and turning centers. Its indexable design allows the cutting edge to be changed quickly when required, helping reduce machine downtime and simplify tooling management.
