Horn R105901313TN35 Carbide Grooving Insert

Product Description

The HORN R105901313TN35 is a carbide grooving insert designed for boring bar applications in precision machining operations. This insert is manufactured from carbide and is intended for grooving operations where tight tolerances and consistent cutting geometry are required. Weighing 0.025 pounds, the insert is a compact, single-piece tooling component suited for CNC lathe and boring bar setups. Machinists and tooling specialists working in production or job-shop environments will find this insert applicable to internal grooving and profile work on rotating workpieces.

This insert is used in boring bar toolholders configured for grooving operations. It is appropriate for use in both production machining centers and manual lathe setups where internal groove profiles must be held to close tolerances. The TN35 grade designation indicates the carbide substrate and coating specification relevant to the cutting material class this insert is optimized for. Typical applications include internal grooving on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces in light to moderate cutting conditions.

Key Features

• Carbide construction for wear resistance in grooving applications
• TN35 grade designation for optimized cutting performance
• Designed for boring bar insert seat compatibility
• Lightweight at 0.025 pounds for minimal toolholder load
• Single-piece insert format for quick indexing and replacement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement insert for HORN boring bar toolholders accepting the R105.9013.1.3 insert geometry in the TN35 grade.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the machine is locked out before indexing or replacing the insert. Use the correct torque wrench and insert screw specified by the toolholder manufacturer when seating the insert. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or debris before installation to ensure proper seating and cutting accuracy.
