Built from solid carbide with a CVD-applied TiCN, Al2O3, and TiN multilayer coating, this insert delivers wear resistance and thermal stability at the cutting edge. It carries the IC6015 manufacturer grade and belongs to the Isoturn series. The 35-degree diamond shape (Insert Shape Code V) provides a sharp, low-cutting-force geometry suited to finishing and semi-finishing work. The insert measures 0.488 inches in length with a 5\/16-inch (0.3125 inch) inscribed circle and a 0.008-inch corner radius. Double-ended construction maximizes index count per insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is engineered primarily for machining stainless steel (ISO material code M), where edge toughness and coating adhesion are critical to consistent tool life. The NF chip breaker geometry supports positive rake cutting, promoting controlled chip formation at moderate to light depths of cut. Maximum depth of cut reaches 2.49 mm (0.098 inches). Typical applications include shaft turning, facing, and contouring on austenitic and martensitic stainless alloys in production machining environments. The Isoturn series is a standard ISCAR platform used in high-volume turning cells across aerospace, medical, and general manufacturing shops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCVD multilayer coating: TiCN, Al2O3, and TiN for heat and abrasion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIC6015 carbide grade optimized for stainless steel and difficult-to-machine materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake NF chip breaker for controlled chip formation and reduced cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble-ended insert geometry for extended usable edge count\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.008-inch corner radius for finishing and semi-finishing passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClamp and pin holding method compatible with standard VNMG toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with VNMG-style toolholders accepting a 5\/16-inch inscribed circle insert.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the turret is locked before indexing or replacing inserts. Seat the insert fully into the pocket and verify there is no rock before engaging the clamp. Do not use damaged pockets or worn clamp screws, as improper seating will cause premature edge failure and dimensional deviation in the workpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNMG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNMG 2.5-0-NF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: IC6015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN, Al2O3, TiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: CVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Diamond (35 degrees)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3125 inches \/ 7.94 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.488 inches (12.40 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/32 inches (0.156 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.008 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.098 inches (2.49 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: NF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp and Pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClearance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel (ISO Code M)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Isoturn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 13399\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISCAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5566980\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ISCAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51731528024370,"sku":"5566980","price":268.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/16429cbb3e71888340ca7a48fa835cf2.jpg?v=1788732176","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/iscar-5566980-vnmg-2-5-0-nf-ic6015-turning-insert","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
