Accupro 75233940 Grooving Insert Ci Style ACP35 Grade

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 75233940 is a CI-style grooving insert designed for precision grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It carries a cutting width of 0.0787 inches (2.000 mm) and a corner radius of 0.0079 inches (0.20 mm), making it suited for tight-tolerance groove profiles. The insert is manufactured in grade ACP35 with a CVD coating and features a positive rake geometry for reduced cutting forces and improved chip control. The GUT chip breaker is integrated into the insert face to manage chip evacuation during interrupted or continuous grooving cuts.

This insert fits CI-style grooving toolholders and is appropriate for general-purpose grooving applications in metalworking environments, including production turning shops and job shops running ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials. Size Code 20 designates the insert body dimensions within the CI series. The positive rake and CVD coating make it a practical choice for medium-duty grooving where surface finish and dimensional accuracy are priorities. It is sold individually but subject to a minimum order quantity of 10 pieces per order.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician with the machine fully powered down and the spindle locked before insert replacement. Seat the insert fully against the pocket locating surfaces before tightening the clamping mechanism to manufacturer specification. Inspect the toolholder pocket for wear or debris prior to seating a new insert. Verify cutting parameters against the ACP35 grade recommendations before resuming operation.
