GX16-2E325N01-UF8 WSM23S — Turning indexable insert, coated carbide, Tiger‑tec Silver (Walter Tools)

The GX16-2E325N01-UF8 WSM23S is a coated carbide indexable turning insert optimised for heavy machining of rostfreier Stahl and heat‑resistant superalloys, offering stable chip formation and enhanced tool life in demanding turning operations.

• Tiger‑tec Silver coating technology
• WSM23S grade for tough materials
• Stable chip control under high thermal load
• Robust cutting edge for long tool life

Increased productivity through stable cutting performance

The Tiger‑tec Silver WSM23S grade combines a wear‑resistant coating with a substrate engineered for demanding turning tasks, delivering consistent chip formation and reduced built‑up edge risk. This results in fewer interruptions for edge changes and a smoother machining rhythm, thereby improving overall throughput. The chipbreaker code 2E325N01‑UF8 supports reliable evacuation during continuous turning, reducing the likelihood of workpiece damage and downtime.

Reliable machining of rostfreier Stahl and superalloys

Designed specifically for rostfreier Stahl (ISO group M) and high‑temperature alloys (ISO group S), the insert maintains a stable cutting edge even when heat dissipation is limited. The coated carbide composition supports higher cutting parameters without compromising surface integrity, making it suitable for applications where material toughness and thermal stress are critical. For engineers seeking repeatable surface quality, this insert offers predictable wear behaviour and process security.

Application benefits and handling notes for shop use

The geometrical and material combination of this indexable insert enables efficient turning with fewer machining cycles and a competitive tool life. When paired with an appropriate holder and cutting data adapted to the workpiece, the insert minimises rework and helps meet tight tolerances. Selection of coolant strategy and feed rates should reflect the workpiece material: optimised parameters enhance the long tool life and secure chip control, particularly in continuous production environments.
