I almost forgot to gloat a little. I also received 20 of these ODMT0605ZZN-D57 grade WSP45 inserts for my two Walter 45º face mills. One an older F2280.UB.064.Z04.06 is a Ø 2-1/2 cutter, the other is the newer nickel plated version Ø 3" F4080.UB26.076.Z06.06.
I got the inserts from my employer, they've moved to a newer version of the grade with improved coating, WSP45S and these are considered "obsolete." Not by me they're not! It's the most "universal" grade as it can handle steel, stainless steel, and superalloys. I'll use them for stainless as I have inserts in the grade WKP35S for steels and cast iron, and WXN15 for aluminum, other non-ferrous and plastic.
