Indexable turning insert GX24-3E400N02-UF4 WSM33S — Tiger·tec Silver for stainless steel (Walter Tools)

GX24-3E400N02-UF4 WSM33S is an indexable turning insert designed for heavy‑duty and difficult‑to‑machine materials, offering thermal stability and reliable edge behaviour for precision turning applications

• Tiger·tec Silver coating technology
• WSM33S grade for tough materials
• Stable cutting edge for stainless steel
• ISO GX24 geometry with 3E400N02‑UF4 chipbreaker

Proven coating technology for longer tool life

The Tiger·tec Silver technology combined with the WSM33S grade offers a balanced solution between hardness and toughness that reduces flank wear and maintains a sharp cutting edge under high temperatures. For applications in stainless steel and heat‑resistant superalloys this results in improved process security and a measurable extension of tool life. Coated carbide substrates with advanced surface layers manage heat more effectively, lowering the risk of built‑up edge and helping to preserve dimensional stability throughout longer production runs.

Geometry and chip control that stabilise machining

The GX24-3E400N02‑UF4 geometry with the integrated chipbreaker promotes predictable chip formation and evacuation, which is crucial when machining sticky or gummy alloys. Stable chip control reduces the likelihood of rework and minimises interrupted cuts, leading to fewer tool changes and more consistent cycle times. The targeted geometry supports a stable cutting edge and improves surface finish, particularly when turning stainless steel where heat and work‑hardening can otherwise compromise results.

Efficient performance for demanding material groups

Engineered for material groups S and M, the insert supports turning tasks on heat‑resistant superalloys, titanium and stainless steel, delivering repeatable performance even under high thermal loading. The combination of grade and chipbreaker reduces process variability, allowing shops to increase throughput without sacrificing surface quality. This focused performance helps to lower unit costs through reduced tool consumption and steadier production output, making the insert a pragmatic choice for industrial machining environments.

Application advice and process support for reliable implementation

Selection of the right insert geometry, grade and cutting parameters is decisive for consistent results. The GX24-3E400N02‑UF4 WSM33S insert benefits from consultation on speeds, feeds and coolant strategies to unlock its full potential in specific setups. For tailored recommendations, optimisation of cutting data or compatibility checks with machine tool capabilities, rely on Metav Werkzeuge’s specialist advisers and application engineers to secure the best balance between productivity and component quality.
