GX16-2E300N15-RF8 WSM13S turning indexable insert — high thermal resistance for rostfreier Stahl and superalloys (Walter Tools)

GX16-2E300N15-RF8 WSM13S is a turning indexable insert designed for heavy cutting of hard-to-machine alloys and, depending on geometry, rostfreier Stahl

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for thermal stability
• WSM13S grade for secure chip control
• Optimised edge for rostfreier Stahl and superalloys
• Robust carbide substrate for extended tool life

Maximum process reliability through thermal stability

The insert’s Tiger·tec Silver coating combines high-temperature resistance with a fine, wear-resistant surface, which significantly improves performance when machining heat-prone materials. For components made of rostfreier Stahl or nickel-based superalloys, this thermal protection reduces flank and crater wear, enabling more consistent tool life and fewer unplanned tool changes. The result is a measurable increase in process stability and predictable production output when using this class of turning insert.

Predictable chip formation and improved surface finish

The WSM13S grade is formulated to promote secure chip control under challenging cutting conditions. With the specified geometry 2E300N15-RF8, the insert supports stable chip breaking and evacuation, lowering the risk of built-up edge and surface defects. This stabilised chip behaviour translates into fewer interruptions, higher first-pass quality and reduced rework, which benefits both batch production and single-part precision work where dimensional repeatability matters.

Efficient cutting performance for demanding materials

Designed for the S and M ISO material groups, the insert excels when machining heat-resistant superalloys and, depending on toolholder and parameters, rostfreier Stahl. The combination of a robust carbide substrate and a tailored coating achieves an effective balance between edge strength and thermal resistance. For production environments where cycle time and tool-life economy are critical, this insert offers a practical route to higher productivity without compromising component integrity.
