WNMM inserts are 80° diamond-shaped, negative-rake carbide inserts specifically designed for heavy-duty turning operations. Known for their durability, versatility, and excellent chip-breaking performance, WNMM inserts are widely used in machining steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and high-temperature alloys.
At CNC Tools Depot, we stock a comprehensive range of WNMM carbide inserts from world-class brands including Korloy, Widia, Kennametal, Taegutec, Mitsubishi, Sandvik, and Iscar.
Insert Shape: Diamond (80° included angle, negative rake)
Cutting Edges: Multiple usable edges for extended tool life
Strength: Strong geometry for heavy-duty cutting
Applications: External turning, facing, and roughing operations
Versatility: Available in various coatings (CVD, PVD, TiN, TiAlN) for different materials
General Turning: Ideal for medium to heavy-duty turning operations
Roughing: Excellent for removing large material stock with high feed rates
Hard Steel Machining: Coated WNMM inserts provide longer tool life in hard-to-cut materials
Cast Iron & Stainless Steel: Optimized chip control for clean surface finish
High-Speed Cutting: Maintains cutting edge integrity even under high heat conditions

WNMM indicates an 80° diamond-shaped, negative-rake turning insert with multiple cutting edges.
Both have an 80° diamond shape, but WNMM inserts are typically flat (no hole/chipbreaker designation), while WNMG includes chip-breaking geometry and a hole for secure clamping.
They can cut steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and hardened steels depending on the grade.
Yes, WNMM inserts are ideal for roughing and semi-finishing due to their strength.
Yes, available in CVD and PVD coatings for wear resistance, and uncoated for softer materials.
Absolutely. WNMM inserts are widely used in CNC turning centers and manual lathes.
Typically 6 to 8 cutting edges, depending on the insert’s design.
They are usually top-clamped or wedge-clamped into tool holders.
Yes, especially the coated and chipbreaker-designed variants, which ensure smooth chip evacuation.
We supply WNMM inserts from Korloy, Widia, Kennametal, Taegutec, Iscar, Mitsubishi, and Sandvik.
