GX24-3E500N04-UD6 WSM23S — Drehwendeschneidplatte (turning insert) with Tiger·tec Silver, for rostfreier Stahl and superalloys (Walter Tools)

The GX24-3E500N04-UD6 WSM23S is a robust turning insert engineered for heavy-duty machining of rostfreier Stahl and heat‑resistant superalloys, offering a combination of thermal resistance and stable chip control suited to demanding turning operations.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for edge stability
• Optimised chipformer 3E500N04-UD6
• For rostfreier Stahl and superalloys
• Reliable life and consistent cutting results

Maximum process reliability through advanced coating and grade

The Tiger·tec Silver technology paired with the WSM23S grade provides a balanced, coated carbide that emphasises edge stability and thermal resistance. This combination reduces the risk of edge breakdown when machining tough materials such as rostfreier Stahl and nickel‑based alloys. The coated substrate supports secure cutting action and helps to maintain geometry tolerance over longer production runs, translating to fewer tool changes and higher overall throughput.

Optimised chip control for safer, more productive turning

The integrated chipformer 3E500N04-UD6 is designed to generate predictable chips and avoid entanglement in continuous cuts. Improved chip control lowers the likelihood of surface damage and reduces the need for manual intervention at the machine, which contributes to more consistent cycle times. When mounted in a matching toolholder, the insert delivers steady cutting behaviour, helping to protect the workpiece surface finish and the machine operator’s workflow.

Application advice and benefits for workshop planning

This insert is particularly suited to operations where material workhardening, poor thermal conductivity and severe tool stress are present. The grade’s properties favour applications requiring sustained cutting forces and elevated temperatures. In practice, users will see benefits in process stability and tool life when switching from a general‑purpose grade to WSM23S, especially on components with tight surface‑quality demands or long run lengths.

Economic advantages and quality consistency in production

By combining a modern coated carbide with a purpose‑matched geometry, the insert delivers a favourable balance between tool life and part quality. Reduced frequency of insert changes and improved repeatability in batch production contribute to lower unit costs and fewer interruptions. Choosing a proven machining grade from Walter Tools supports predictable performance and easier process documentation for quality control.
