Material Grade: UE6110 (Premium Steel Grade)
The UE6110 carbide grade is part of Mitsubishi’s advanced coating series, specifically designed to withstand the heat and abrasion of high-velocity steel turning. This CVD coated insert provides an incredibly smooth surface finish, minimizing chip friction and preventing built-up edge (BUE) on carbon steels.
Geometry: Positive Rake Advantage
The WCMT geometry features a positive rake angle that significantly reduces cutting resistance. This allows for lower vibration and higher precision, making it perfect for fine finishing to medium turning of alloy steels on CNC lathes.
Recommended Cutting Parameters
Optimized for P-Class (Steel) machining:
- Cutting Speed (Vc): 150 - 350 m/min (490 - 1150 SFM)
- Feed Rate (f): 0.10 - 0.25 mm/rev (0.004 - 0.010 ipr)
- Depth of Cut (ap): 0.5 - 2.5 mm
*Note: Ensure high machine stability for maximum tool life when cutting at high Vc speeds.

Questions & Answers
Q: Can I use WCMT06T304 UE6110 for stainless steel?
A: It can be used in a pinch, but for optimal tool life in stainless steel, we strongly recommend the US735 or MC7025 grades which are specifically designed for heat-resistant alloys.
Q: What tool holder fits this insert?
A: This insert fits any SWLCR, SWGCR, or S-WCMT style boring bar or turning holder that accepts 06-size trigon inserts.
Q: Is this insert suitable for interrupted cuts?
A: UE6110 is primarily designed for continuous cutting at high speeds. If your work involves heavy interruptions, consider the tougher UE6020 grade.
Expert Tip: Grade Comparison
For the best CNC productivity, choose UE6110 for high-speed precision finishing. If you are doing general-purpose turning with varied materials, VP15TF is a great alternative, but for pure steel efficiency, UE6110 is unmatched.
