Iscar 2301666 Indexable Grooving Blade Left Hand

Product Description

The ISCAR 2301666 is a left-hand indexable grooving blade designed for use on CNC lathes and turning centers in metalworking applications. The blade mounts into a modular grip toolholder and accepts PENTA-series inserts for grooving, parting, and turning operations. Standing 1.1929 inches tall and 0.2047 inches wide, with an overall length of 1.634 inches, it handles minimum groove widths of 0.0197 inches up to a maximum of 0.125 inches. The blade style is PCAD and conforms to ISO 13399 tooling standards. Machinists and toolroom technicians working with small-diameter grooves or parting-off operations will find this blade suited to tight-tolerance work.

The 2301666 is used in grooving, parting, and turning operations on metal workpieces where left-hand cutting direction is required. It fits into modular grip and PentaCut series toolholding systems. Typical applications include groove profiles and cutoff operations on CNC turning equipment in production or job-shop environments. Compatible insert styles include PENTA 24N-J, PENTA 24N-PF, PENTA 24R/L-J, and PENTA 24R/L-Z. Specific compatible insert part numbers include PENTA 24L100J15D, PENTA 24L150Z06D, PENTA 24N050J000, PENTA 24N100PF010, and PENTA 24N157J079.
