WOEX030204-E57 WKP35S — drilling/boring indexable insert, Tiger·tec Silver, Trigon 80° | Walter Tools

The WOEX030204-E57 WKP35S is a Trigon 80° indexable insert for drilling and boring operations, designed and graded for productive machining in steel and cast iron applications.

• Tiger·tec Silver coated carbide grade WKP35S
• Trigon 80° geometry for stable chip control
• Corner radius 0.4 mm for controlled engagement
• Suitable for steel and cast iron machining

Increased productivity through advanced coating and grade

The combination of the Tiger·tec Silver series and the WKP35S grade provides a coated carbide substrate engineered for high abrasive resistance and edge stability. This results in fewer tool changes and a more predictable wear pattern during batch production. The cutting material is optimised for the thermal and mechanical conditions encountered when machining steel and cast iron, which helps maintain dimensional consistency and reduces downtime caused by premature flank wear. The insert's construction supports steady performance across varied workpiece batches, contributing to improved uptime and process stability.

Geometry and chip control for consistent surface quality

The Trigon 80° shape, together with the chipbreaker E57 and a corner radius of 0.4 mm, is designed to balance cutting forces and chip formation. The trigonal form provides robust cutting edges and an advantageous approach angle for bore-entry, while the chipbreaker channels chips away from the cutting zone to reduce re-cutting and improve surface finish. These geometric features lead to stable cutting behaviour and predictability when engaging interrupted or continuous cuts, which in turn contributes to reduced vibration and better workpiece integrity.

Practical integration and process benefits

Specified with a plate size code of 03 and plate thickness code 02, and manufactured to tolerance class E, this insert is compatible with holders and tool systems accepting the WOEX030204-E57 family. The execution marking X indicates the particular variant within Walter Tools' portfolio. By selecting this insert, shops can expect improved tool life and reproducible results in standard production setups; for non-standard geometries or specialised operations, technical parameter optimisation is recommended to fully exploit the Tiger·tec Silver coating advantages. The design supports cost-effective machining by emphasising repeatability and straightforward tool management in production environments.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert suitable for?
The WOEX030204-E57 WKP35S insert from Walter Tools is intended for machining steel and cast iron (ISO groups P and K), reflecting the grade and coating design.

What advantages does the Tiger·tec Silver coating provide?
The Tiger·tec Silver coating enhances abrasive wear resistance and edge security on the WKP35S grade, improving life span under the thermal loads typical for steel and cast iron cutting.

How does the Trigon 80° shape affect machining performance?
The Trigon 80° geometry offers a robust cutting edge and an effective entry angle for bore operations, promoting stability and consistent chip evacuation when paired with an appropriate chipbreaker.

What role does the chipbreaker E57 play?
The E57 chipbreaker is designed to control chip formation and evacuation, reducing the risk of re-cutting and aiding surface finish consistency during drilling and boring.

What does tolerance class E mean for tool replacement?
Tolerance class E denotes the manufacturing tolerance applied to the insert, which supports repeatable seating and interchangeability within compatible toolholder systems.
