GX24-2E300N03-UD4 WKP23S indexable turning insert — Tiger·tec Silver, for steel and cast iron (Walter Tools)

GX24-2E300N03-UD4 WKP23S is an indexable turning insert designed for efficient machining of steels and cast iron, offering a coated carbide grade tailored to common turning applications

• Tiger·tec Silver coating
• WKP23S coated carbide grade
• Optimised for steel and cast iron ISO groups
• Controlled chip formation and predictable wear

Increased process reliability for steel turning

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver series with the WKP23S grade offers a coated carbide solution specifically tuned to the thermal and tribological demands of machining steel. The grade is designed to manage the heat development and chipflow typical for ISO P applications, resulting in more consistent cutting behaviour and reduced unexpected downtime. This makes the insert well suited for medium-to-heavy turning operations where stability and reproducible results are essential.

Consistent performance when machining cast iron

For cast iron work, the geometry and material pairing support efficient removal of often short, breaking chips and tolerance of abrasive wear. The insert’s design helps maintain a stable edge and consistent component quality across batches, which is beneficial where repeatability and surface integrity are required. The result is fewer interruptions for edge changes and better control of scrap rates in cast-iron turning tasks.

Productivity gains through predictable chip control

Optimised chip formation reduces secondary operations and machine idle time. The chipbreaker code 2E300N03-UD4 contributes to controlled chip segmentation and evacuation, lowering the risk of tool interference and improving operator safety. With predictable chip behaviour, cycle times can be maintained more reliably, supporting higher throughput in production environments without sacrificing surface finish or dimensional accuracy.

Practical application notes and compatibility

The insert is applicable to ISO P (steel) and ISO K (cast iron) material groups and is supplied in the standard insert geometry indicated by the code. It serves as a versatile option where one needs a coated turning insert that balances wear resistance and chip control. For specific holder compatibility or recommendations for cutting parameters, refer to machine and workpiece requirements or request cutting data from the supplier to match feed and speed to the material and operation.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The GX24-2E300N03-UD4 WKP23S insert is intended for ISO P (steel) and ISO K (cast iron) applications and has been developed to manage the typical chip formation and wear mechanisms of these materials.

Which coating and grade are used on this insert?
This indexable turning insert uses the Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WKP23S coated carbide grade to deliver balanced wear resistance and heat tolerance in turning operations.

How does the chipbreaker code affect performance?
The chipbreaker 2E300N03-UD4 provides controlled chip segmentation and evacuation, improving process reliability and reducing the likelihood of chip-related interruptions during turning.

Is this insert compatible with standard turning toolholders?
The geometry follows the GX24 series designation; compatibility depends on the holder type and clamping system. Verify the insert seat and clamping method against the GX24 specification before use.

Can this insert be used for high-speed finishing?
The grade and coating combination is optimised for stable cutting in steel and cast iron; recommended cutting parameters should be chosen according to the machine capability and workpiece material to achieve finishing or semi-finishing results.
