Product Description

The ISCAR 2302508 is an indexable grooving blade from the PentaCut series, designed for grooving, parting, and turning operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Built for left-hand cutting direction, the blade accepts a range of PENTA 34 insert styles and supports minimum groove widths starting at 0.0591 inches (1.50 mm) up to a maximum of 0.1575 inches (4.00 mm). Maximum depth of cut reaches 0.2170 inches. The blade measures 1.6535 inches high, 0.4724 inches wide, and 2.4213 inches in overall length. It conforms to ISO 13399 tooling standards. This blade is installed and used by machinists and CNC tooling technicians in production and job-shop environments.

The 2302508 is suited for external grooving, parting-off, and turning applications on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. The PCAD blade style accommodates multiple PENTA 34 insert geometries, giving technicians flexibility to select insert grades and chipbreakers matched to the specific material and operation. It is appropriate for use in medium to high-volume turning operations where repeatable groove width and depth are required.
