Iscar 6003615 Cutoff Insert 8mm Carbide Neutral Tang-grip

Product Description

The ISCAR 6003615 is a single-end carbide cutoff insert in the Tang-Grip series, designed for parting and slitting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Manufactured from solid carbide with an IC830 grade and a PVD-applied AlTiN and TiN coating, this insert delivers thermal resistance and edge toughness in demanding cuts. The 8 mm cutting width and neutral lead angle suit a wide range of groove geometries. The C chipbreaker profile promotes chip control during continuous or interrupted cuts. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install this insert in compatible Tang-Grip toolholders as a direct replacement.

This insert is intended for slitting and cutoff applications where the primary workpiece material is superalloy, though the ISO material codes M, P, and S indicate suitability across steel, stainless, and superalloy work materials. The neutral hand orientation allows use in standard right-hand turning setups. It is suited for production environments where consistent chip evacuation and tool life are priorities. The multi-use designation means the insert can be applied across different compatible Tang-Grip holders without modification.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction with IC830 manufacturer grade for high hardness and wear resistance
• PVD coating combining AlTiN and TiN for thermal protection and reduced built-up edge
• 8 mm cutting width with neutral lead angle and neutral hand orientation
• C chipbreaker profile for active chip control during slitting and parting
• 0.50 mm corner radius reduces stress concentration at the cutting edge
• Multi-use insert compatible across Tang-Grip series toolholders

Compatibility

Designed for use with ISCAR Tang-Grip series toolholders that accept the TAG N8C insert style. Refer to the ISCAR Tang-Grip toolholder catalog to confirm pocket geometry and clamping compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing the insert. Ensure the Tang-Grip pocket is clean and free of chips or debris before inserting. Do not exceed the recommended depth of cut for the holder size, and verify clamping screw torque per the toolholder manufacturer specifications.
