GX16-3E400N04-UF4 WSM33S indexable turning insert – Tiger·tec Silver for stainless steel and superalloys | Walter Tools

The GX16-3E400N04-UF4 WSM33S is an indexable turning insert engineered for heavy machining of stainless steel and heat‑resistant superalloys, combining a robust coated carbide grade with a geometry optimised for stable cutting.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for heat resistance
• Optimised chip formation for stable cutting
• Suitable for stainless steel and superalloys
• Robust, coated carbide grade WSM33S

Better performance on stainless steel and superalloys

The coated carbide grade WSM33S, realised within the Tiger·tec Silver series, is tailored to the demands of stainless steel and heat‑resistant alloys. These workpiece groups generate high temperatures and tend to form built‑up edge; the combination of a heat‑resistant coating and a stable substrate reduces adhesion and preserves the cutting edge. As a result, machining cycles run with fewer interrupts for edge dressing and deliver more consistent production output, which supports predictable batch processing and reduced scrap rates.

Reliable chip control and improved surface quality

The dedicated chipbreaker geometry 3E400N04‑UF4 promotes controlled chip breakage and evacuation even under tougher turning conditions. Controlled swarf management minimises rework and tool collisions while contributing to a consistent surface finish. With optimised chip formation, the insert helps maintain cutting forces within expected ranges, which benefits both tool holders and machine spindle life and supports repeatable part quality in serial turning operations.

Longer tool life and lower process variation

A coated carbide formulation plus a proven coating system result in enhanced wear resistance and a more robust edge, extending useful life between indexings. This leads to fewer insert changes and reduced downtime. The improved thermal resilience of the coating helps avoid premature flank wear when machining materials that retain heat. In practice, this translates into a clear productivity advantage and a lower cost per component when the insert is used in appropriate cutting windows.

Practical integration into machining systems

As an indexable turning insert, the item fits standard turning tool holders that accept the GX16 form factor; its designation and geometry are compatible with common clamping systems. The insert’s characteristics make it suitable for applications where secure chip control and edge stability are priorities, such as finishing and semi‑finishing of corrosion‑resistant parts or components made from high‑temperature alloys. For selection of cutting data and holder pairing, consult technical sheets or contact a tooling specialist to match machine and process requirements.
