It carries the WKP23S grade designation and features a CVD-applied Al2O3 and TiN coating that improves wear resistance and thermal stability at the cutting edge. The insert has a 3 mm cutting width, a maximum depth of cut of 50 mm, and a CE4 chip breaker geometry with a positive rake angle. The self-grip holding method locks the insert securely into compatible SX toolholders. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install this insert in production and job-shop environments where tight groove tolerances on steel and cast iron are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for grooving and recessing operations on steel workpieces (ISO material code P) and cast iron workpieces (ISO material code K) in both light and moderate cutting conditions. The CE4 chip breaker geometry is optimized for controlled chip formation in these materials, making the insert a practical choice for external groove turning on medium to large diameter parts. A positive rake angle reduces cutting forces and heat generation at the insert nose, which extends tool life in continuous grooving passes. The insert is rated for maximum depths of cut exceeding 20 mm, placing it in high-reach grooving applications on shafts, flanges, and similar turned components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction with CVD-applied Al2O3 and TiN coating for thermal and abrasion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3 mm cutting width with 50 mm maximum depth of cut for deep groove applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCE4 chip breaker geometry with positive rake angle for controlled chip formation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSelf-grip insert holding method for secure, repeatable seating in SX series toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.20 mm corner radius for consistent groove floor finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNeutral hand orientation for flexible setup on both OD grooving and face grooving operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConforms to ANSI and ISO standards; ANSI and ISO code SX-3E300N02-CE4 WKP23S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with SX series self-grip grooving toolholders compatible with size 3 inserts.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Seat the insert fully into the self-grip pocket and confirm it is flush and secure before resuming cuts. Do not exceed the rated maximum depth of cut of 50 mm, and verify toolholder compatibility with insert size 3 SX geometry before mounting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Series\u003c\/strong\u003e: SX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: WKP23S\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Al2O3 and TiN (CVD process)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: CE4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.00 mm (0.1180 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50.00 mm (1.9690 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.70 mm (0.1850 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12.30 mm (0.4840 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.00 mm (0.1180 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.20 mm (0.0080 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3E300N02\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Self Grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel (ISO code P)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron (ISO code K)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-use Tool\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI and ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI\/ISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: SX-3E300N02-CE4 WKP23S\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: WALTER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6572479\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WALTER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972867752242,"sku":"6572479","price":318.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/walter-6572479-grooving-insert-sx3ce4-wkp23s-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
