Accupro 75235135 Ci Grooving Insert 0.0787 in ACP35K

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 75235135 is a CI-style grooving insert designed for external and internal grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. This insert carries a 0.0787-inch (2.000 mm) cutting width and a 0.0079-inch (0.20 mm) corner radius, making it well-suited for precision groove profiles requiring tight dimensional control. The ACP35K manufacturer grade features a CVD coating that extends tool life when cutting steel and other common workpiece materials. Positive rake geometry reduces cutting forces and heat generation at the cutting edge. Machinists and CNC operators install this insert as a direct replacement in compatible CI-series toolholders using clamp, screw, or self-grip holding methods.

This insert is intended for production turning environments where consistent groove width and edge integrity are critical. The CI series design is common in job shops and production machining facilities running medium to high volume turning cycles. The GMP chip breaker promotes reliable chip evacuation in interrupted or continuous grooving passes. Multi-use compatibility allows the insert to be repositioned for extended use, reducing per-part tooling cost on repetitive grooving applications.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement insert for CI-series grooving toolholders accepting size code 20 inserts with clamp, screw, or self-grip retention.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Seat the insert fully in the pocket and verify the holding method is secure before resuming cutting operations. Follow the toolholder manufacturer guidelines for proper clamping torque and insert seating to avoid edge chipping or insert movement during the cut.
