Iscar 6003234 DGR4803C-8D Carbide Cutoff Insert 4.8mm

Product Description

The ISCAR 6003234 is a solid carbide cutoff and parting insert carrying the manufacturer designation DGR4803C-8D in the IC328 grade. It belongs to ISCARs Do-Grip series, which uses a clamp-style holding method to secure the insert firmly during parting and grooving operations. The insert features a 4.8 mm (0.1890 inches) cutting width, an 8-degree right-hand lead angle, and a 0.30 mm (0.0118 inches) corner radius with a C-style chipbreaker. The IC328 grade is applied via a PVD coating process and is optimized for cutting superalloys and other demanding workpiece materials. The insert is double-ended, offering two usable cutting edges per insert.

This insert is intended for parting and cutoff operations on CNC lathes and turning centers where precise groove width and clean parting faces are required. The right-hand orientation and 8-degree lead angle suit standard front-facing toolholder setups. Primary workpiece material designation is superalloy (ISO material code M, P, S), making this insert well suited for aerospace, energy, and high-temperature alloy machining environments. The Do-Grip clamping system provides rigid insert retention, which is critical when parting deep sections or working with interrupted cuts in tough materials.

Key Features

• IC328 PVD-coated solid carbide grade optimized for superalloy machining
• 8-degree right-hand lead angle for standard front-facing toolholder compatibility
• C-style chipbreaker for controlled chip evacuation during parting operations
• Double-ended insert design provides two usable cutting edges per insert
• Clamp-style (Do-Grip) holding method ensures rigid, repeatable seating

Compatibility

Designed for use with ISCAR Do-Grip series clamping toolholders that accept DGR 4803-style inserts. Consult ISCAR toolholder documentation to confirm holder compatibility before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool turret is in a safe indexed position before inserting or replacing cutting inserts. Use the appropriate ISCAR clamping key to seat the insert fully into the Do-Grip pocket, and verify the insert is flush and locked before resuming cutting. Do not exceed the toolholder manufacturers recommended depth-of-cut or feed rate for this insert size.
