GX24-2F300N15TM-1 WBH20 turning indexable insert – CBN grade for hardened steels (Walter Tools)

The GX24-2F300N15TM-1 WBH20 is a precision indexable turning insert engineered for hard machining, offering high wear resistance and process stability in the machining of hardened steels.

• CBN grade WBH20 for hard machining
• Optimised for hardened steels (H)
• Stable wear resistance and edge stability
• Walter CBN / hard-material series

Enhanced tool life and consistent performance for hard turning

The WBH20 CBN grade is formulated for the highest demands in hard machining and provides exceptional wear resistance and edge stability under elevated cutting forces. CBN (cubic boron nitride) is a superabrasive material that retains cutting capability at high temperatures, which translates into prolonged tool life and fewer insert changes. This results in improved machine utilisation and lower process downtime when working on hardened steels and pre-hardened components.

Predictable process behaviour and machining quality

The insert features an optimised chip control geometry indicated by the 2F300N15TM-1 chipformer, designed to manage chips and promote stable cutting conditions in demanding applications. Stable chip formation supports repeatable surface quality and dimensional consistency, reducing rework and inspection effort. As part of the Walter CBN / hard-material series, the insert contributes to predictable cycle times and controlled tool wear, thereby enhancing overall process reliability.

Practical benefits for production workflows

Use of a CBN-based grade such as WBH20 offers clear advantages when machining materials in ISO group H: fewer tool changes, reliable engagement with high hardness levels and improved surface finishes compared with conventional carbide tooling. The combination of a robust grade and a dedicated chipformer leads to cost-effective hard turning through increased part output and lower secondary processing. Technical staff can expect more consistent component tolerance achievement over longer production runs.

Application guidance and integration into machining processes

The insert is primarily intended for the machining of hardened steels and pre-hardened steel applications and is well suited to finishing and precision hard-turning tasks where edge integrity and wear resistance are critical. Integration into an existing turning cell requires standard indexable insert holders compatible with the GX24 designation; careful fixturing and stable setup are recommended to exploit the full benefits of the CBN grade. For complex or critical applications, collaboration on cutting data with the supplier helps to adapt the insert to specific machine and workpiece conditions.
