Iscar 6003448 Cutoff Insert 3mm Tang-grip IC928

Product Description

The ISCAR 6003448 is a single-end carbide cutoff and parting insert designed for precision grooving and cutoff operations on CNC turning centers and lathes. Built from solid carbide with an IC928 manufacturer grade and a PVD coating process, this insert delivers consistent performance on superalloy workpiece materials. The cutting width measures 3.00 mm (0.1180 inches), with a 6-degree lead angle in a right-hand orientation, a 7-degree relief angle, and a corner radius of 0.20 mm (0.0079 inches). The J chipbreaker geometry supports controlled chip evacuation during parting cuts. Installation uses a clamp-style holding method compatible with the Tang-Grip insert system.

This insert is suited for parting and grooving applications in production turning environments where superalloy, steel, and cast iron workpiece materials are common. The Tang-Grip series is a clamping system used on dedicated ISCAR parting and grooving toolholders. The right-hand, single-end configuration makes this insert appropriate for standard lathe setups where the cutting tool approaches from the right. Licensed machinists and CNC turning specialists are the primary installers of this insert type.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction with IC928 grade for strength and wear resistance
• PVD-coated finish for extended tool life on difficult-to-machine superalloy materials
• 3.00 mm cutting width (0.1180 inches) for precise parting and grooving
• J chipbreaker geometry for effective chip control during cutoff operations
• 6-degree right-hand lead angle with 7-degree relief angle for clean entry and reduced tool pressure
• Tang-Grip clamp holding method for secure, repeatable seating in compatible toolholders

Compatibility

Designed for use with Tang-Grip series parting and grooving toolholders that accept the TAG insert style with a size code 3 designation. Compatible material grades listed include C1, C2, C5, and C6. Conforms to ISO 13399 standards. Refer to the ISCAR Tang-Grip toolholder selection guide to confirm holder compatibility before ordering.

Installation Notes

This insert is installed and replaced by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before performing any insert change. Use the appropriate ISCAR Tang-Grip clamp tool to seat and secure the insert fully before resuming cuts. Do not exceed the recommended depth of cut or feed rate for the IC928 grade on the workpiece material in use.
