Walter 6152470 Grooving Insert 4mm Solid Carbide WSM33S

Product Description

The WALTER 6152470 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision turning and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Built to the GX insert style with a WSM33S manufacturer grade, this double-end insert features a 4.00 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 2.80 mm. The insert carries a multilayer PVD coating combining Al2O3, TiAlN, and ZrCN for thermal resistance and edge durability. The UF4 chip breaker geometry is optimized for controlled chip evacuation in demanding cuts. Machining technicians and CNC operators working with tight tolerances will find this insert suited to consistent, repeatable grooving profiles.

This insert is intended for grooving, parting, and turning applications where superalloys, steels, and stainless materials are the primary workpiece. The primary workpiece material codes are M, P, and S, covering stainless steel, general steel, and superalloy classifications. It fits clamp-style toolholders compatible with the GX insert system and conforms to ANSI code GX243E400N04UF4 WSM33S and ISO code GX24-3E400N04-UF4. The double-end design provides two usable cutting edges per insert, extending tool life per unit. This insert is well suited to production turning environments where consistent groove geometry is required across high-volume runs.

Key Features

• 4.00 mm cutting width with a maximum depth of cut of 2.80 mm for controlled grooving passes
• Double-end insert body delivers two cutting edges per insert
• PVD-applied multilayer coating: Al2O3, TiAlN, and ZrCN for heat and wear resistance
• UF4 chip breaker geometry designed for superalloy and stainless steel chip control
• 0.40 mm corner radius provides a defined edge transition without full radius profile
• Conforms to ANSI and ISO standards for broad toolholder compatibility within the GX system

Compatibility

Designed for use in clamp-style GX insert toolholders compatible with the GX24 insert system. Conforms to ANSI code GX243E400N04UF4 WSM33S and ISO code GX24-3E400N04-UF4. Suitable for workpiece material grades S30, M30, and P35.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by CNC machinists or tooling technicians. Power down and de-energize the machine spindle before seating or replacing the insert. Use the appropriate clamp and torque driver specified by the toolholder manufacturer for the GX clamping system. Inspect the insert seat and clamp for wear or debris before loading a new insert to ensure proper seating and edge alignment.
