GX24-3E400N04-UD4 WKP33S turning indexable insert — Tiger‑tec Silver coated for steel and cast iron, Walter Tools

A GX24-3E400N04-UD4 WKP33S turning indexable insert engineered for high-process stability in turning operations on steel and cast iron, offering a coated carbide grade optimised for consistent cutting performance

• Tiger‑tec Silver coating for extended life
• WKP33S grade for coated carbide performance
• Optimised chip control for steel and cast iron
• Stable cutting edge for productive machining

Higher productivity through reliable cutting performance

The combination of the Tiger‑tec Silver coating and the WKP33S carbide grade delivers measurable gains in process reliability. Designed for typical heat development and chip formation when machining steel, and for the abrasive, breakable chips encountered with cast iron, this insert reduces tool-change frequency and supports steady cycle times. The coated substrate improves resistance to abrasive wear while maintaining edge stability, which results in fewer interruptions and more predictable throughput.

Practical benefits at the machine: less downtime, more parts

Built around a chipbreaker geometry labelled 3E400N04-UD4, the insert channels and fractures swarf reliably, reducing the risk of stringing or tool interference. A chipbreaker is a purpose‑designed groove or topography on the insert that controls how chips curl and break; applying this feature in turning operations simplifies swarf handling and protects the workpiece finish. The outcome is a combination of improved surface quality and reduced manual clearing, contributing to lower effective machining costs and enhanced operator safety.

Clear material range and application guidance

Specified for material groups P / K, the insert is suitable for a broad spectrum of unalloyed and alloyed steels as well as common cast irons according to ISO classification. The designation GX24‑3E400N04‑UD4 identifies the geometry and cutting edge form, while the WKP33S grade indicates a coated cemented carbide tuned for these workpiece families. For shops seeking repeatable results across batch and prototype runs, the insert’s engineering supports consistent dimensional accuracy and predictable tool life with compatible turning toolholders.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The GX24-3E400N04-UD4 WKP33S insert is specified for ISO groups P and K, meaning it is intended for machining various steels and cast irons.

How does the Tiger‑tec Silver coating improve performance?
The Tiger‑tec Silver coating on the WKP33S grade increases resistance to abrasive wear and helps maintain a stable cutting edge, extending the effective service life of the insert.

What does the chipbreaker code 3E400N04-UD4 mean for daily use?
The 3E400N04-UD4 chipbreaker denotes the insert’s topography and edge form designed to control chip formation during turning, which simplifies swarf management and supports consistent surface quality.

Can this insert be used for stainless or pre‑hardened steels?
The insert is specified for material groups P (steel) and K (cast iron); no classification for stainless or pre‑hardened steels is provided in the data, so selection for those materials should be confirmed with an application specialist.

Is this product compatible with standard turning toolholders?
The GX24-3E400N04-UD4 WKP33S is an indexable turning insert; compatibility depends on the toolholder seat and clamping system—verify the holder’s insert pocket for the GX24 geometry.
