Iscar 2500095 Indexable Grooving Toolholder External Rh

Product Description

The ISCAR 2500095 is an external, right-hand indexable grooving toolholder from the Heliface series, designed for precision grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It accepts HFPR/L and HFPR/L Full Radius inserts, secured by a clamp-style holding method for rigid, repeatable positioning. The toolholder handles a maximum workpiece diameter of 2.36 inches and a maximum depth of cut of 0.87 inches. With a 1.0 x 1.0 inch shank and an overall length of 6 inches, it fits standard OD turning setups. This toolholder is rated for universal workpiece materials, covering steel, stainless, cast iron, non-ferrous, and superalloys.

The ISCAR 2500095 is suited for external grooving applications in production turning environments. It is compatible with HFPR 3003 and HFPR 3015 inserts. Typical applications include OD grooving, parting-adjacent operations, and recessing on workpieces up to 2.36 inches in diameter. The 1.02-inch back-of-bar to cutting edge dimension and 1.43-inch head height make it a practical choice for close-clearance turning setups. It is a multi-use toolholder capable of handling a range of groove widths within the 0.118-inch insert specification.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or tooling setup technician. Before mounting or indexing inserts, ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and all energy sources are locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Torque insert clamping screws using the appropriate ISCAR torque key — do not use substitutes that could damage the clamp pocket. Verify shank clamping pressure in the tool block is within the machine manufacturer's recommended range before running.
