P2840S-4N-A57 WSP45G drilling/boring indexable insert, Tiger·tec Gold – Walter Tools

The P2840S-4N-A57 WSP45G is a coated carbide indexable insert from the Tiger·tec Gold series, engineered for drilling and bore-enlargement operations in steel, stainless steel and high-temperature alloys.

• Tiger·tec Gold PVD-coated carbide grade WSP45G
• For steel, stainless steel and superalloys
• 4N-A57 chipbreaker for reliable chip control
• Stable cutting edge for extended tool life

High-performance grade for demanding materials and higher feeds

The coated carbide WSP45G from the Tiger·tec Gold family combines wear resistance with substrate toughness to deliver stable cutting in demanding environments. Designed for groups P, M and S, the grade is optimised for unalloyed and alloyed steel, stainless steel and heat-resistant superalloys, where thermal load and edge wear are critical. This balance enables higher cutting speeds and improved process reliability, which can lower cycle times and reduce insert consumption. The result is measurable productivity gains and more predictable tool-change intervals, supporting efficient production planning.

Controlled chip formation and consistent surface quality

The 4N-A57 chipbreaker geometry provides defined chip segmentation and evacuation during drilling and bore enlargement, reducing the risk of built-up edge and heterogeneous surface finish. Clear chip flow shortens rework time and minimises tool-clamping issues, while a stable cutting edge supports repeatable dimensional accuracy. For operators and process engineers, this means fewer interruptions for manual chip clearing and a reduced likelihood of tool-related downtime—advantages that translate directly into lower total machining cost per component.

Simple integration into standard tool systems and process support

The insert designation and form allow straightforward integration into common drill and boring holders that accept the P2840-type geometry, simplifying inventory and tool-change procedures. Backed by Walter Tools' engineering and quality processes, the insert supports consistent edge life across batches, easing tool management and quality control. For specific machining strategies, application windows or clamping advice, technical consultation is available to align cutting data with component tolerances and machine capability. Contact options are provided for tailored recommendations and process validation.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited for?
The P2840S-4N-A57 WSP45G insert is suitable for steel, stainless steel and heat-resistant superalloys, reflecting its P / M / S material group suitability and the thermal resilience of the Tiger·tec Gold coating.

How does the 4N-A57 chipbreaker improve machining?
The 4N-A57 chipbreaker provides defined chip segmentation and evacuation, which reduces built-up edge and helps maintain consistent surface finish and dimensional accuracy during drilling and bore-enlargement operations.

Can this insert withstand higher cutting speeds than standard grades?
Yes. The combination of the Tiger·tec Gold PVD coating and the WSP45G substrate improves heat and wear resistance, allowing more aggressive cutting parameters compared with uncoated or conventional grades, while maintaining edge stability.

Is the insert compatible with standard P2840-type holders?
The insert's designation corresponds to common P2840 geometries and is intended for holders that support this form, enabling straightforward integration into existing tool setups.
