Built to the GX-E-UF8 series standard, this insert carries the WSM23S manufacturer grade and features a PVD-applied Al2O3 and aluminum coating for extended tool life under high heat and abrasion. The cutting width measures 0.079 inches (2.00 mm) with a corner radius of 0.008 inches (0.20 mm), making it suited for tight-tolerance groove profiles. The UF8 chip breaker geometry supports consistent chip control during finishing passes. Installed by machinists and tooling specialists in CNC turning and grooving applications, this insert is a multi-use tooling component conforming to both ANSI and ISO standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is intended for use on superalloys as the primary workpiece material, corresponding to material codes M, P, and S. The GX-E-UF8 series geometry and WSM23S grade combination is engineered for finishing cuts on difficult-to-machine alloys where heat resistance and edge stability are critical. Typical applications include aerospace component grooving, medical part turning, and high-temperature alloy machining where consistent surface finish and dimensional accuracy are required. The ANSI code for this insert is GX161E200N02UF8 WSM23S and the ISO code is GX161E200N02UF8 WSM23S.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePVD-coated Al2O3 and aluminum finish for heat and wear resistance in superalloy cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCutting width of 0.079 inches (2.00 mm) for precise groove geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorner radius of 0.008 inches (0.20 mm) supports tight-tolerance profile requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUF8 chip breaker geometry for controlled chip evacuation during finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-use insert design compatible with GX-style tooling systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConforms to both ANSI and ISO standards (GX161E200N02UF8 WSM23S)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in GX-E-UF8 series toolholders.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or indexing the insert. Use the appropriate torx or clamp screw driver specified for the toolholder to secure the insert without overtightening. Inspect the insert pocket for debris or damage before each insert change to maintain accurate seating and cutting geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: GX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1E200N02\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.079 inches (2.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.008 inches (0.20 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: WSM23S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: GX-E-UF8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: UF8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Al2O3 and Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Superalloys (M, P, S)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExternal Relief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 21 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.63 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.002 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: GX161E200N02UF8 WSM23S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: GX161E200N02UF8 WSM23S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 6955183\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WALTER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51973576589618,"sku":"6955183","price":615.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a93b39f54e98b5a5f400482d6cfd9135.jpg?v=1789973711","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/walter-6955183-grooving-insert-gx-e-uf8-wsm23s-pvd","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
