Horn R111081045 TI25 Grooving Insert Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HORN R111081045 TI25 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision external and internal grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Built to Series 111 specifications, this right-hand insert features the TI25 manufacturer grade and is held in place via a screw-clamping system for secure, repeatable positioning. With an overall length of 0.421 inches (10.70 mm) and a maximum depth of cut of 1.50 mm, it delivers consistent performance in demanding turning applications. Licensed machinists and CNC operators working in production and job-shop environments are the primary users of this insert.

This insert is suited for turning applications across a broad range of workpiece materials, including cast iron, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, steel, and superalloys, corresponding to material codes K, M, N, P, and S. Its universal primary workpiece material designation makes it a versatile choice for shops running mixed-material workloads on standard CNC turning equipment. The right-hand cutting orientation and 8-degree lead angle are optimized for conventional grooving tool holders in the Series 111 system.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in grooving applications
• TI25 grade optimized for universal workpiece material compatibility (K, M, N, P, S codes)
• Screw-clamping holding method for secure, repeatable insert indexing
• Right-hand cutting orientation with an 8-degree lead angle
• Maximum depth of cut of 1.50 mm for controlled grooving passes
• Series 111 form factor for compatibility with corresponding HORN toolholders

Compatibility

Designed as a Series 111 grooving insert for use with HORN Series 111 screw-clamp toolholders. Insert size code 081045 should be matched to the appropriate holder designation within the Series 111 system.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician. Always power down and lock out the machine before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the correct torx or hex key as specified by the toolholder manufacturer when tightening the clamping screw - do not overtighten, as this can damage the insert seat. Verify insert orientation and seating before resuming cutting operations.
