P2841S-6N-A57 WKP35S drilling/reaming indexable insert – Tiger·tec Silver, for steel and cast iron | Walter Tools

P2841S-6N-A57 WKP35S is a drilling/reaming indexable insert designed for productive machining of steel and cast iron components

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for extended life
• WKP35S coated carbide for robust cutting
• 6N-A57 chipbreaker ensures controlled chips
• Suited to steel and cast iron machining

Consistent cutting performance and extended tool life

The insert’s Tiger·tec Silver technology combines a wear-resistant coating with a tailored substrate to reduce flank and crater wear. This coated carbide construction improves thermal and mechanical resistance, which translates into longer tool life and fewer interruptions for tool changes. For manufacturing operations that prioritise uptime, the optimised coating and grade selection deliver predictable performance across batch runs. The technical choice of a coated grade helps manage heat and adhesion during high-contact drilling and reaming operations, ensuring repeatable results and stable edge life.

Precise chip control for reliable surface quality

With the 6N-A57 chipbreaker geometry, the insert provides dependable chip control in both short and mixed-chip conditions typical of steel and cast iron. Good chip formation reduces re-cutting, protects the cutting edge and helps maintain a consistent surface finish on the machined bore. The ISO groups P and K identify the insert’s compatibility with steel and cast iron, respectively, so the geometry and grade are matched to the thermal and abrasive characteristics of those materials. For workshops seeking fewer stoppages and improved process stability, predictable chip evacuation directly supports higher machine efficiency.

Efficient machining and application guidance

Designed as a drilling/reaming indexable insert, this variant supports productive operations where indexable solutions are preferred over solid tools for economical tooling costs and quick edge changes. The combination of a robust WKP35S grade and a proven chipbreaker reduces the frequency of regrinds and replacements, improving overall cost-efficiency in production. For mixed fleets and varying batch sizes, selecting an insert with this balance of wear resistance and chip control simplifies tooling decisions and contributes to consistent part quality. For customers with specific cycle times or bore requirements, process parameters can be adjusted to exploit the coating and geometry benefits fully.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The insert is specified for ISO groups P and K, meaning compatibility with steel and cast iron applications when using the P2841S-6N-A57 WKP35S insert from Walter Tools.

How does the Tiger·tec Silver coating improve performance?
The Tiger·tec Silver coating offers improved wear resistance and thermal stability for the WKP35S grade, resulting in longer edge life and fewer tool changes under typical drilling and reaming loads.

What benefit does the 6N-A57 chipbreaker provide?
The 6N-A57 chipbreaker controls chip shape and flow to reduce re-cutting and support a consistent surface finish, especially beneficial when machining mixed chip-forming steels and cast irons.

Can this insert be used for high-speed operations?
The combination of coated carbide and optimised chip geometry supports elevated cutting conditions; final parameters should be set according to machine capability and the specific workpiece material.

Is this insert suitable for small-batch production and large series?
Yes; the balance of wear resistance and chip control in the WKP35S grade makes the insert appropriate for both single-part prototyping and extended production runs.
