GX24-2E300N02-UF8 WSM23S indexable turning insert — Tiger·tec Silver, for stainless steels and superalloys (Walter Tools)

The GX24-2E300N02-UF8 WSM23S is an indexable turning insert designed for demanding applications in machining stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys, combining a coated‑carbide grade with a dedicated chipbreaker.

• Tiger·tec Silver coated carbide grade WSM23S
• Optimised for stainless steels and superalloys
• Stable cutting edge for heavy-duty turning
• Chipbreaker 2E300N02-UF8 for secure chip control

Consistent performance for difficult-to-machine materials

The WSM23S grade, part of the Tiger·tec Silver family, is a coated carbide formulation developed for materials that generate heat and tend to work‑harden. Its primary benefit is edge stability under thermal and mechanical load, which reduces the risk of premature flank wear and built‑up edge formation when turning stainless steels and similar alloys. In practice, this means fewer unscheduled tool changes and more predictable tool life, supporting steady production runs and easier planning of tool replacement intervals.

Improved productivity through controlled chip formation

The integrated chipbreaker 2E300N02-UF8 is engineered to produce short, manageable chips in tougher alloys. Reliable chip control lowers the likelihood of chip entanglement and protects the cutting edge from damaging contact, enabling higher material removal rates with maintained surface integrity. For process engineers this translates into measurable gains in machine utilisation and a reduction in secondary handling for chip disposal, while preserving component surface quality.

Application guidance and machining benefits

Designed for ISO groups M and S, the insert suits operations involving stainless steels (M) and heat‑resistant superalloys / titanium (S). Cutting geometry and insert selection should consider part tolerance and finish requirements; the coated grade supports moderately aggressive parameters while retaining a focus on surface quality. When combined with appropriate cutting speeds, feeds and coolant strategy, the insert helps achieve consistent part dimensions and a reproducible surface finish, making it suitable for serial production and repair tasks where alloy behaviour is challenging.
