P2841S-6N-E57 WKP35S – Boring/reaming indexable insert, Tiger‑tec Silver (Walter Tools)

The P2841S-6N-E57 WKP35S is an indexable insert engineered for productive enlargement and finishing operations on steel and cast iron, delivering stable chip control and extended tool life in industrial machining

• Tiger‑tec Silver coating for enhanced wear resistance
• WKP35S grade: coated carbide for reliable edge life
• Optimised for machining steel and cast iron
• Stable chip formation and consistent surface finish

Reliable cutting performance that reduces cycle times

The combination of the Tiger‑tec Silver coating and the WKP35S grade produces a hard-wearing cutting surface that resists abrasive wear while managing heat generation during aggressive cutting. This leads to longer edge life and fewer index changes, which supports uninterrupted production runs. For tooling planners and shopfloor engineers, this means reduced setup frequency and improved overall equipment effectiveness. The insert’s geometry and chipbreaker promote predictable chip flow, lowering the risk of built-up edge and improving dimensional stability across a series of holes

Optimised for steel (P) and cast iron (K) applications

Manufactured for the ISO P and K material groups, the insert is tailored to the thermal and mechanical demands of steel and cast iron. The chipbreaker designation 6N‑E57 is developed to handle the typical chip forms of these materials: long, stringy chips in many steels and shorter, breaking chips in cast iron. As a result, the insert provides consistent surface quality and repeatable bore tolerances, making it suitable for both roughing and semi-finish stages where machine uptime and part accuracy are priorities

Coating and grade explained for straightforward selection

The coated carbide construction offers a balance between toughness and wear resistance. The WKP35S grade is a coated hardmetal formulation optimised for stable cutting in a broad range of steels and many cast irons. The Tiger‑tec Silver coating enhances thermal resistance and reduces abrasive wear, which is particularly beneficial in high-material-removal operations. For purchasers and process engineers with limited metallurgical background, this means a versatile insert that minimises the need for multiple grades while maintaining process reliability

Process considerations and pairing recommendations

To exploit the insert’s strengths, select cutting parameters that match the material group and desired surface finish: moderate cutting speeds with stable feeds during roughing, increasing speed and reducing feed for semi-finishing where the coating’s wear resistance contributes to surface quality. The insert geometry supports secure clamping in standard boring heads; ensure correct seating and torque to maintain consistent runout and tool life.
