GX24-3F500N04‑UF4 WSM33S — Turning insert (Tiger‑tec Silver) by Walter Tools

The GX24-3F500N04‑UF4 WSM33S is a coated carbide turning insert engineered for demanding machining of stainless steels and heat‑resistant superalloys (ISO groups M and S), offering stable edge life and consistent chip formation.

• Tiger‑tec Silver coating for extended wear
• Optimised for stainless steels and superalloys
• Stable cutting edge under high temperatures
• Chipbreaker 3F500N04‑UF4 for reliable chip control

Optimised grade and coating for demanding materials

The insert is based on the WSM33S grade within the Tiger‑tec Silver family, a coated carbide solution designed to resist thermally induced wear and edge degradation when machining tough materials. The combination of a hard, wear‑resistant coating and a substrate tuned for toughness supports consistent performance on stainless steels and nickel‑based alloys. For production environments that require repeatable surface quality and reduced flank wear, this specification reduces the frequency of tool changes and contributes to predictable process windows.

Chip control and cutting edge stability for steady cycles

The integrated chipbreaker 3F500N04‑UF4 is optimised to produce controllable, segmented chips in interrupted or continuous cuts, which lowers the risk of chip entanglement and improves evacuation. Good chip control lessens the thermal load on the edge and minimises built‑up edge formation, resulting in fewer reworks and less machine downtime. The geometry promotes a stable cutting line, helping to maintain dimensional consistency across batches and enhancing cycle reliability on cylindrical turning operations.

Productivity benefits through wear resistance and repeatability

The coated surface and grade chemistry provide improved wear resistance, translating into longer productive cutting lengths and a reduced total cost per component in many applications. Because the cutting edge maintains its integrity under high temperatures, operators can run conservative to moderate feeds with confidence in surface finish consistency. The insert’s properties support higher process stability, which is particularly beneficial for small‑batch series and high‑value components where downtime and scrap are costly.

Practical integration and material compatibility in workshops

Marked for ISO groups M and S, the insert is suitable for conventional toolholders and typical turning tool systems; the ISO designation simplifies tool selection and inventory management. The code specifies its chipbreaker and edge preparation, aiding quick matching to existing operations and cutting data sheets. For specialised materials or unusual component geometries, Metav Werkzeuge’s technical team can advise on holder choices and cutting parameter strategies to exploit the insert’s strengths while safeguarding component tolerances.
