P2841S-5N-A57 WKP35S — Drilling/boring indexable insert, Tiger‑tec Silver (Walter Tools)

The P2841S-5N-A57 WKP35S is an indexable insert designed for drilling and boring operations, optimised for machining steel and cast iron with a coated carbide grade for reliable production use

• Tiger‑tec Silver coating for long tool life
• WKP35S: coated carbide grade for steels and cast iron
• Geometry 5N‑A57 for reliable chip control
• Walter Tools quality and consistent performance

Increased productivity through modern coating technology

The combination of Tiger‑tec Silver coating and the WKP35S grade provides measurable gains in tool life and process stability in production environments. The coating reduces abrasive and adhesive wear on the cutting edges, which in turn extends service intervals and lowers tool-change frequency. For operations where uptime matters, this means a higher number of finished components per shift and improved overall equipment effectiveness.

Geometry engineered for controlled chips and surface quality

The 5N‑A57 geometry acts as an effective chipbreaker, facilitating predictable chip formation and evacuation during drilling and boring cycles. Predictable chip behaviour reduces the risk of rework caused by chip re-cutting and helps to maintain consistent surface finish. This geometry is particularly beneficial when working with interruption-prone castings and tougher steel grades, as it minimises vibration and stabilises the cutting process.

Application-focused advantages for workshop and production use

Specified for ISO material groups P (steel) and K (cast iron), the insert combines a robust, coated carbide substrate with a geometry tailored for holemaking. The result is a balance between wear resistance and edge stability that supports both short-run and high-volume production. By choosing this insert, operators gain a practical solution for machining varying workpiece materials without frequent tool swaps, helping to streamline set-up and inventory management.

Practical integration and technical support readiness

The indexable format allows fast replacement without complex regrinding, keeping setup times low and making the insert suitable for automated drilling and boring centres as well as manual machines. Technical documentation and cutting data are available on request to support process optimisation and feed/speed selection. For customers requiring machining recommendations, the insert’s characteristics aid in selecting appropriate coolant and parameter windows to achieve consistent results.
