GX24-3E400N02-CF5 WSM23S indexable turning insert, Tiger·tec Silver — Walter Tools

The GX24-3E400N02-CF5 WSM23S is a coated carbide indexable turning insert designed for high thermal stability and reliable chip control when machining rostfreier Stahl and heat-resistant superalloys

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for thermal stability
• WSM23S grade for hard-to-machine alloys
• Geometry 3E400N02-CF5 for predictable chip control
• Suitable for rostfreier Stahl and superalloys

Built for thermal resilience and consistent edge life

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WSM23S grade results in a coated carbide insert engineered for elevated temperature resistance and reduced flank wear. The multilayer coating reduces heat transfer into the substrate while preserving a stable cutting edge, which mitigates built-up edge and extends tool life during continuous turning operations. The designated chipbreaker, 3E400N02-CF5, provides controlled chip splitting and evacuation, lowering the risk of chip re-cutting and improving surface quality. This technical makeup translates into fewer insert changes and more predictable process windows, supporting higher productivity in serial production environments.

Optimised for rostfreier Stahl and high-temperature alloys

The grade targets ISO groups M and S, meaning the insert is matched to the demands of rostfreier Stahl and heat-resistant superalloys that characteristically exhibit low thermal conductivity and high strength at temperature. The substrate and coating are balanced to resist softening and chipping under thermal and mechanical stress, offering consistent performance when encountering work-hardened or adhesive-prone surfaces. For workshop planners and CNC programmers, this means a reliable option for facing, light turning and finishing passes where material adhesion and edge integrity are critical. Selection of appropriate feeds, cutting depths and coolant strategy will further exploit the grade’s strengths and reduce cycle-time variability.

Productivity gains and integration advice for production

Process stability is the primary economic advantage: the insert’s coating and chipbreaker reduce tooling downtime and rework, supporting a steady throughput. When integrating this insert into a turning cell, pair the insert with a rigid indexable holder and ensure correct seat clearance to preserve the defined cutting geometry. Although cutting data must be adapted to the specific machine and workpiece, the overall result is improved surface finish and longer intervals between tool changes, particularly on rostfreier Stahl and nickel-based alloys. If the application involves severe interruptions or difficult profiles, prefer conservative entry parameters and validate stability before ramping up to full production.

FAQ

What materials is the GX24-3E400N02-CF5 WSM23S best suited for?
The GX24-3E400N02-CF5 WSM23S is designed primarily for rostfreier Stahl and heat-resistant superalloys (ISO groups M and S), where thermal resistance and stable edge integrity are required.

How does the Tiger·tec Silver coating affect tool life?
The Tiger·tec Silver coating reduces heat transfer and enhances wear resistance on the cutting edge, which helps the insert maintain lengthened service intervals and consistent performance in demanding turning operations.

What benefit does the 3E400N02-CF5 chipbreaker provide?
The 3E400N02-CF5 geometry promotes predictable chip formation and evacuation, lowering the risk of chip entanglement and improving surface finish during continuous and finishing cuts.

Can this insert be used for roughing and finishing?
Yes; the insert’s combination of coated carbide and chipbreaker makes it adaptable for both finishing passes and light-medium roughing, provided cutting parameters are chosen to match the workpiece and machine rigidity.

Is the GX24-3E400N02-CF5 WSM23S compatible with standard indexable holders?
The insert is intended for common indexable turning systems — ensure correct seating and torque to retain designed cutting geometry and to prevent premature edge degradation.
