GX16-2E300N03-UA4 WKP33S turning insert — Tiger·tec Silver for steel and cast iron by Walter Tools

The GX16-2E300N03-UA4 WKP33S is a coated indexable turning insert designed for productive machining of steel (P) and cast iron (K), combining a robust cutting geometry with Walter Tools' Tiger·tec Silver technology.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for extended life
• WKP33S grade for a stable cutting edge
• Optimised chip control (2E300N03-UA4)
• Suited to steel (P) and cast iron (K)

Greater throughput with predictable tool life

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WKP33S grade delivers a higher resistance to abrasive and thermal wear, which translates into longer tool life and fewer index changes. Coated carbide substrates in this series are engineered to handle the heat and deformation typical of turning operations on unalloyed and alloyed steel, meaning machining cycles remain stable under higher cutting speeds. The result is measurable productivity gains and lower per-part tooling costs thanks to reduced downtime and consistent removal rates.

Reliable chip formation for fewer interruptions

The 2E300N03-UA4 chipbreaker geometry is optimised for controlled chip formation when machining both steel and cast iron, reducing the risk of long, tangled swarf and minimising secondary operations. Improved chip control supports uninterrupted production runs and safer handling at the machine, while the insert chemistry and coating combination mitigate adhesive and abrasive wear mechanisms. For operations where consistent surface finish and cycle time stability are essential, this insert class offers a dependable solution.

Consistent surface quality and process security

A stable cutting edge and tailored coating behaviour ensure repeatable surface finishes and dimensional consistency part-to-part. The coated insert design supports reliable edge retention and contributes to constant results across batches, which is particularly valuable in series production or when machining components with tight tolerances. By selecting this insert type from Walter Tools' Tiger·tec Silver line, a workshop gains a balance of productivity and process security that reduces rework and supports predictable scheduling.
