Iscar 6002441 GTN-2 IC354 Carbide Cutoff Insert 2.2mm

Product Description

The ISCAR 6002441 is a single-ended carbide cutoff insert designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It carries the GTN-2 insert style in IC354 grade with a PVD coating, delivering wear resistance and edge stability during high-speed cutoff work. The cutting width measures 2.2 mm (0.0866 inches), with a corner radius of 0.16 mm (0.0063 inches) and a relief angle of 7 degrees. The neutral lead angle and neutral hand orientation make it suitable for straight plunge cutting without lateral force bias. It seats in Self-Grip style toolholders using a clamp holding method.

This insert is used in production turning environments where repeatable, precise cutoff operations are required. The Self-Grip clamping system is common on Swiss-type and conventional CNC lathes in both job shop and high-volume production settings. The IC354 PVD-coated carbide grade targets C5 and C6 material grade applications, including steels and alloy materials typical in aerospace, automotive, and general machining work. Licensed machinists and CNC operators performing cutoff and grooving work are the primary users of this insert.

Key Features

• GTN-2 insert style with 2.2 mm cutting width for precise parting operations
• IC354 PVD-coated carbide grade rated for C5 and C6 material groups
• Neutral lead angle and neutral hand for straight plunge cutoff without lateral deflection
• 7-degree relief angle reduces rubbing and supports clean edge engagement
• 0.16 mm corner radius for controlled chip formation at the insert tip
• Single-end design with clamp-style holding in Self-Grip compatible toolholders

Compatibility

Designed for use in ISCAR Self-Grip style toolholders accepting insert seat size 2. Consult the toolholder documentation to confirm insert seat size and clamping compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Power down and lock out the machine before seating or removing inserts. Inspect the insert pocket and clamp for wear or debris before installing a new insert, as a contaminated seat can affect cutting geometry and tool life. Do not exceed the toolholder manufacturer's recommended depth-of-cut or feed rate for this insert size.
