P2840S-6N-F57 WKP35S – drill/boring indexable insert, Tiger·tec Silver (Walter Tools)

A P2840S-6N-F57 WKP35S insert designed for precision drilling and boring operations in steel and cast iron, offering a balance of wear resistance and stable chip formation.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for long tool life
• Optimised for steel and cast iron
• Coated carbide grade WKP35S
• 6N‑F57 chipbreaker for stable chips

Consistent component quality through advanced coating

The insert is manufactured in a coated carbide grade that uses Tiger·tec Silver technology, which provides enhanced wear resistance and thermal stability during interrupted cutting and continuous drilling cycles. This coating reduces flank and crater wear, so the cutting edge remains sharper for longer and component surface quality stays consistent across batches. For production planners, this means fewer unexpected tool changes and more predictable part tolerances.

Predictable chip control and stable machining process

The 6N‑F57 chipbreaker geometry is tailored to break and evacuate chips reliably in mixed operations. Combined with the WKP35S grade, the geometry supports controlled chip formation when machining both steel (ISO group P) and cast iron (ISO group K). Explaining ISO briefly: P designates steel applications and K denotes cast-iron work; this insert is optimised for the thermal and abrasive challenges typical of these groups, leading to improved process stability and reduced cycle-time variation.

Less downtime and easier production planning

Because the insert delivers repeatable edge retention and predictable wear behaviour, tool management becomes more straightforward. The coated carbide composition and chipbreaker lower the frequency of regrinding or replacement, which supports lean manufacturing aims and reduces auxiliary costs. Choosing this insert supports continuous operation on milling or drilling rigs where consistent tool life and low maintenance intervals are priorities.

Practical application guidance and compatibility

The insert is intended for drill and boring tool concepts that accept this ISO-style geometry and designation. As a standard indexable cutting part, it integrates into systems that use corresponding seatings and clamps; toolholders should be checked for geometric compatibility before assembly. For applications that combine interrupted cuts and high material removal, this grade and chipbreaker pairing offers a reliable compromise between productivity and surface finish.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert suitable for? The P2840S-6N-F57 WKP35S insert is suitable for steel (ISO group P) and cast iron (ISO group K) applications, reflecting the design goals of the WKP35S grade.

What benefit does the Tiger·tec Silver technology provide? Tiger·tec Silver enhances wear resistance and thermal stability for the WKP35S coated carbide, helping to maintain cutting-edge integrity and consistent surface finish during drilling and boring.

How does the 6N‑F57 chipbreaker affect machining? The 6N‑F57 chipbreaker is engineered for reliable chip segmentation and evacuation, which improves process security and reduces the risk of chip-related interruptions in both steel and cast-iron cutting.

Is this insert compatible with all drill holders? Compatibility depends on the holder geometry and seat specification; the insert follows standard ISO-style designation, but holders should be verified for fit and clamping before use.

Can the insert be used for interrupted cuts or high-feed operations? Yes, the combination of the WKP35S grade and the 6N‑F57 chipbreaker is intended to handle interrupted cutting and mixed operation profiles with improved edge stability.
