P4841P-1R-F57 WKP35S — drilling/boring indexable insert for steel and cast iron | Walter Tools

The P4841P-1R-F57 WKP35S is a drilling/boring indexable insert engineered for high-productivity machining of steel and cast iron, combining a coated carbide grade with a chipbreaker designed for stable cutting performance.

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for extended tool life
• WKP35S substrate for reliable wear resistance
• 1R‑F57 chipbreaker for controlled chip formation

Proven coating and grade for longer tool life

The combination of Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WKP35S coated carbide grade is optimised for the thermal and abrasive demands of machining steel and cast iron (ISO groups P and K). The coating enhances thermal resistance and reduces adhesion, which leads to improved edge stability and prolonged service intervals. In practice, this means fewer insert changes and more consistent production output, particularly where heat generation and intermittent cutting conditions would otherwise accelerate wear.

Predictable chip control for safer, faster machining

The 1R‑F57 chipbreaker is designed to shape and break chips reliably during drilling and boring operations, reducing the risk of long swarf and improving evacuation from the hole. Controlled chip formation lowers the chance of re-cutting and associated surface damage, so the insert supports a steady cycle time and better surface quality. For operators less familiar with chipbreaker terminology: a chipbreaker is a groove or geometry that alters the chip flow to produce short, manageable segments.

Integration benefits and economic impact

As an indexable insert for drilling and boring applications, the design facilitates quick index changes and consistent performance across batches. The resulting reduction in downtime and tooling consumption contributes to lower overall machining costs and higher process reliability. Where mixed material runs are common, the grade’s broad applicability to P (steel) and K (cast iron) materials simplifies inventory and tooling planning, supporting a more economic and flexible production strategy.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The P4841P-1R-F57 WKP35S is suitable for ISO groups P and K, i.e. steel and cast iron, thanks to the Tiger·tec Silver coating and WKP35S grade.

How does the 1R‑F57 chipbreaker improve machining?
The 1R‑F57 chipbreaker shapes chips into short segments for reliable evacuation, which reduces re-cutting and improves surface finish when machining with this Walter Tools insert.

Is the WKP35S grade coated or uncoated?
WKP35S is a coated carbide grade within the Tiger·tec Silver series, offering enhanced thermal resistance and wear performance.

Can this insert reduce tooling costs in batch production?
Yes; the extended tool life and broad material applicability of the P4841P-1R-F57 WKP35S lower insert consumption and simplify tooling inventories, improving overall cost efficiency.
