P2841S-6N-A57 WXP40 drilling/reaming indexable insert – Walter Tools

The P2841S-6N-A57 WXP40 drilling/reaming indexable insert delivers a robust cutting edge for high-output drilling and reaming tasks in industrial machining.

• Uncoated carbide grade WXP40
• Chipbreaker 6N-A57 for chip control
• Designed for drilling and reaming
• Walter Tools quality and consistency

High productivity through stable cutting performance

The P2841S-6N-A57 WXP40 is an indexable insert specified for drilling and reaming operations where consistent material removal and repeatable edge performance are required. The WXP40 grade is an uncoated carbide designed to offer a balance between economy and cutting resistance; combined with the 6N-A57 chipbreaker, it supports controlled chip formation and evacuation. This results in fewer interruptions for chip clearance and a steadier cycle time, contributing to measurable productivity gains on repetitive or long-run machining tasks.

Practical benefits for process reliability and tool life

Built around a proven carbide composition, the insert prioritises stable chip formation and reliable edge behaviour under typical drilling and reaming loads. The Walter Tools specification emphasises broad process applicability and consistent tool life, making this insert suitable for users seeking predictable performance. As the grade is uncoated, the cutting behaviour is direct and easy to assess in trial cuts; final selection should be guided by the manufacturer's product matrix to match feed and speed ranges with specific workpiece materials.

Simple integration into indexable tooling systems

Indexable inserts reduce downtime thanks to multiple cutting edges and straightforward indexing; the P2841S-6N-A57 designation identifies the geometry and chipbreaker 6N-A57, which is optimised for chip control in axial drilling and bore-finishing steps. Installation into compatible holders is quick, and replacement is immediate when an edge is indexed, lowering overall maintenance effort. For precise application, verify holder compatibility and refer to the product matrix for recommended cutting data and material ranges to ensure peak performance in production environments.
