Accupro 75232066 Grooving Insert Ci Style ACP35 Grade

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 75232066 is a CI-style grooving insert designed for precision groove-turning and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Built to insert size code 30, it delivers a cutting width of 0.1181 inches (3.000 mm) with a corner radius of 0.0118 inches (0.30 mm) for consistent, repeatable results. Manufactured in grade ACP35 with a CVD coating, this insert is engineered for wear resistance and extended tool life in demanding turning applications. The positive rake geometry and GUT chip breaker promote effective chip evacuation and reduce cutting forces. Machining professionals and CNC operators install this insert as part of standard grooving toolholder systems.

This grooving insert is suited for external and internal grooving operations in production turning environments, including aerospace, automotive, and general machining shops. The CI series configuration supports multiple holding methods including clamp, screw, and self-grip, giving machinists flexibility across compatible toolholders. Its 0-degree lead angle makes it a direct fit for radial grooving where straight side walls are required. The ACP35 CVD-coated grade performs well on steel, cast iron, and similar ferrous workpiece materials at moderate to high cutting speeds.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified CNC machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing any turning insert. Ensure the toolholder pocket and clamping surfaces are clean and free of chips before installing the insert. Follow the toolholder manufacturer's clamping torque specifications and do not exceed the rated depth of cut for the insert size.
