Iscar 5566971 Carbide Turning Insert Ccmt Pf IC6025

Product Description

The ISCAR 5566971 is a CCMT-style indexable carbide turning insert designed for general turning operations on a wide range of workpiece materials. Coated with a multilayer TiCN/Al2O3/TiN system applied via MTCVD coating process, the IC6025 grade delivers a balance of wear resistance and toughness suited for continuous and moderately interrupted cuts. The insert geometry features an 80-degree diamond shape with a positive rake angle and a 7-degree relief angle, producing a PF chip breaker configuration that promotes reliable chip control during finish and semi-finish turning. Weighing 0.01 pounds, this is a single-use consumable insert seated and indexed by the operator without regrinding.

The 5566971 is intended for use in CCMT-compatible toolholders on CNC lathes and manual turning centers in both production-shop and maintenance environments. Its primary workpiece material designation (ISO code M) indicates suitability for stainless steels and similar materials. The insert is right-hand cutting and fits standard CCMT insert pockets. Typical applications include OD turning, facing, and profiling at moderate feed and depth-of-cut parameters, with a maximum depth of cut of 2.50 mm (0.098 inches).

Key Features

• IC6025 grade carbide with multilayer TiCN/Al2O3/TiN MTCVD coating for extended tool life
• 80-degree diamond insert shape (C) with positive rake for reduced cutting forces
• PF chip breaker geometry for consistent chip control in finish and semi-finish turning
• 7-degree relief angle (clearance code C) and tolerance code M for precise seating
• Maximum depth of cut: 2.50 mm (0.098 inches)
• Compliant with ISO 13399 cutting tool data representation standard

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement for CCMT 2-0-PF style insert pockets in standard CCMT-compatible right-hand toolholders. Part of the ISCAR Isoturn series.

Installation Notes

Indexable carbide inserts are installed and changed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the correct torque wrench and insert screw specified by the toolholder manufacturer — never overtighten the clamping screw, as this can fracture the insert. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping components for wear or debris before seating a new insert.
