Iscar 6003294 Dgnm 3202C IC908 Carbide Cutoff Insert

Product Description

The ISCAR 6003294 is a solid carbide double-ended cutoff and grooving insert in the Do-Grip series, designed for precision parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. The insert carries the DGNM 3202C geometry with a PVD-coated IC908 carbide grade, delivering consistent edge life on a broad range of workpiece materials. The cutting width measures 0.1252 inches (3.18 mm) with a corner radius of 0.0079 inches (0.20 mm) and a neutral lead angle, making it suitable for straight plunge cuts without lateral deflection. Machinists and tooling technicians install this insert into compatible Do-Grip toolholders.

This insert is rated for universal primary workpiece material compatibility, covering ISO material groups H, K, M, P, and S. Typical applications include grooving and parting operations in production turning environments, including aerospace alloys, stainless steels, cast irons, carbon steels, and superalloys. The double-ended design allows both cutting edges to be used before the insert is discarded, reducing per-cut tooling cost in high-volume operations. It is sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing any insert. Seat the insert fully into the toolholder pocket and verify the clamping mechanism is secure before resuming cutting. Do not use damaged or chipped inserts, as edge failure during parting operations can result in workpiece loss or machine damage.
