Iscar 2301430 Grooving Cutoff Toolholder Left Hand

Product Description

The ISCAR 2301430 is an indexable grooving and cut-off toolholder in the Do-Grip series, designed for external turning operations on CNC lathes and similar machine tools. It accepts DG-style inserts secured by a clamp-style holding method, providing rigid, repeatable insert positioning. The toolholder handles groove widths from 0.118 to 0.125 inches and supports a maximum depth of cut of 0.591 inches. With a shank cross-section of 0.5 inches by 0.5 inches and an overall length of 5.5 inches, it fits standard toolholding setups used in production and job-shop turning environments. This is a left-hand configuration, suited for specific spindle rotation and approach direction requirements.

This toolholder is intended for external grooving and cut-off applications in ferrous and non-ferrous turning operations. It is used in environments where precise groove geometry and clean cut-off profiles are required. The Do-Grip series is a recognized ISCAR platform for grooving work, and this holder is appropriate for machinists and tooling technicians setting up CNC turning cells, Swiss-type lathes, or conventional engine lathes where a left-hand external grooving holder is specified.

Key Features

• Groove width range: 0.118 to 0.125 inches for close-tolerance grooving work
• Maximum depth of cut: 0.591 inches for deep grooving and cut-off capability
• Left-hand orientation for specific spindle and approach configurations
• Clamp-style insert holding for secure, repeatable insert seating
• Compatible with DG-series inserts including DGN and DGNM families
• Conforms to ISO 13399 tooling data standards for integration with CAM and tool management systems
• No coolant-through — external coolant delivery applies

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or tooling technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before mounting or changing the toolholder or insert. Confirm that the shank dimensions match the toolpost or turret pocket before mounting. Follow the machine tool manufacturer torque specifications for clamping bolts — do not rely on estimated values. Verify left-hand orientation against the programmed tool path and spindle rotation direction before running the first part.
