P4841P-6R-A57 WKP35S — Drilling/boring indexable insert, Tiger·tec Silver coating | Walter Tools

P4841P‑6R‑A57 WKP35S is an indexable insert designed for drilling and boring tasks, optimised for machining steel and cast iron with enhanced wear resistance and chip control

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for long tool life
• Optimised chipbreaker 6R‑A57 for reliable chips
• Suitable for steel (P) and cast iron (K)
• Designed for drilling and boring indexable applications

Maximised tool life and consistent performance in production

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver coating and the WKP35S grade delivers a marked improvement in wear resistance and edge stability, which translates into longer tool life and fewer changeovers. Coated carbide technology reduces flank and crater wear under typical drilling and boring loads, ensuring a stable cutting edge and predictable component quality. For production environments where uptime and repeatability matter, the enhanced durability means less unscheduled downtime and a more reliable machining process.

Predictable chip control for safer, cleaner machining

The 6R‑A57 chipbreaker geometry is engineered to produce short, controlled chips when working with steel and cast iron, reducing the risk of chip entanglement and improving coolant flow in deep or through‑coolant operations. Controlled chip formation supports consistent surface finish and decreases secondary handling time. Explaining the term: a chipbreaker is a groove or geometry on the insert that splits or curls the chip to manageable sizes — here optimised for common P and K materials to aid process security.

Broad application range with ISO P/K compatibility

This insert is intended for materials classified under ISO P (steel) and ISO K (cast iron), covering unalloyed and alloyed steels as well as typical cast iron grades. The coated carbide grade is selected to handle the thermal and abrasive conditions typical of these groups. In practice, this means one insert family can cover a range of workpieces, simplifying tool inventory and making tool selection more efficient for mixed‑material production runs.

Production benefits and shopfloor advantages

Adopting this indexable insert supports a measurable improvement in machining stability and repeatability. The coated carbide grade and chip control reduce edge chipping and built‑up edge formation, yielding better surface finishes and fewer rejects. For operations aiming to increase throughput without compromising quality, this insert offers a balance of process reliability, straightforward re‑indexing, and compatibility with common drilling and boring holders used in machining centres.

FAQ

Which materials is the insert suitable for?
The P4841P‑6R‑A57 WKP35S is specified for ISO P (steel) and ISO K (cast iron) applications; the WKP35S grade is tailored to these material groups.

What advantage does the Tiger·tec Silver coating provide?
The Tiger·tec Silver coating increases wear resistance and improves thermal tolerance, helping the insert maintain a stable cutting edge and extend service life in drilling and boring operations.

How does the 6R‑A57 chipbreaker affect machining?
The 6R‑A57 chipbreaker promotes short, controlled chips for safer evacuation and improved surface finish when machining steels and cast irons.

Is this insert suitable for stainless steel?
Stainless steel suitability is not specified for this grade; the WKP35S sort is primarily intended for steel and cast iron, so performance on stainless materials cannot be guaranteed.

Can this insert be used in standard drilling holders?
The insert is designed for drilling and boring indexable applications and is compatible with holders built for the P4841P‑6R‑A57 geometry, but holder compatibility should be confirmed per machine tool requirements.
