GX24-3E500N04-UA4 WKP13S indexable turning insert — Tiger‑tec Silver, for steel and cast iron, Walter Tools

GX24-3E500N04-UA4 WKP13S is a coated indexable turning insert designed for productive turning of steels and cast irons in industrial turning applications

• Tiger‑tec Silver coating for long tool life
• WKP13S coated carbide for reliable wear resistance
• Optimised 3E500N04‑UA4 chipbreaker for chip control
• Dedicated for machining steel (P) and cast iron (K)

Increased productivity through durable coating and grade

The combination of the Tiger‑tec Silver coating and the WKP13S grade delivers a measurable improvement in tool life and cutting stability. The grade is a coated carbide designed to tolerate the thermal and mechanical stresses typical of turning steel and cast iron, which means fewer interruptions for tool changes and a more predictable production schedule. The coating reduces adhesive and abrasive wear, so productivity gains translate directly into lower unit costs and higher throughput.

Precise material suitability and controlled chip behaviour

Designed for ISO groups P and K, the insert supports turning operations on a broad range of unalloyed and alloyed steels as well as grey and nodular cast irons. The WKP13S chemistry and coating combination is tuned for the heat and chip characteristics encountered with these materials, improving chip control and reducing the likelihood of built‑up edge. For operations that demand consistent surface quality, the insert geometry and coating work together to produce stable cutting conditions and repeatable finishes.

Geometry engineered for consistent surface finish and tool life

The 3E500N04‑UA4 chipbreaker geometry provides controlled shear and predictable chip segmentation, which benefits automatic chip evacuation and machine uptime. The insert design supports reliable milling forces and helps maintain a consistent contact zone at the tool edge, resulting in an improved surface finish and extended effective cutting time. For production runs where dimensional stability and repeatability matter, this geometry reduces variance and keeps cycle times steady.

Practical advantages in the workshop and on the shopfloor

In everyday use, the insert's balanced properties mean fewer adjustments and lower tooling costs per part. The WKP13S grade offers stable performance across varying batch sizes, while the coating minimises downtime caused by premature wear. As a Walter Tools solution in the Tiger‑tec Silver series, the insert is suited to process‑oriented setups where reproducibility and economy are priorities; this makes it a fitting choice for jobbing shops and continuous production alike.
