Iscar 6003646 Cutoff Insert 1.4mm Tang-grip

Product Description

The ISCAR 6003646 is a single-end Tang-Grip cutoff and grooving insert designed for parting and slitting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Manufactured from solid submicron carbide and finished with a PVD coating in grade IC807, this insert delivers consistent edge strength and wear resistance across a broad range of workpiece materials. The cutting width is 1.4 mm (0.0550 inches), with a neutral lead angle and a 7-degree relief angle. The 0.16 mm (0.0063 inch) corner radius supports clean chip formation. Installation and indexing are handled by clamp-style holding, consistent with the Tang-Grip toolholder system.

This insert is suited for slitting and cutoff applications in production turning environments, including both light and heavy-duty cycle work. The IC807 grade with PVD coating is rated for universal application across ISO material groups H, K, M, P, and S, covering hardened steels, cast irons, general steels, stainless, and superalloys. It is appropriate for use by machinists and CNC tooling technicians in job shops, OEM manufacturing, and production facilities running Tang-Grip compatible toolholders.

Key Features

• 1.4 mm (0.0550 inch) cutting width for precise parting and grooving
• IC807 PVD-coated submicron carbide grade for universal workpiece material compatibility
• Neutral lead angle and 7-degree relief angle reduce lateral cutting forces
• 0.16 mm corner radius with C chipbreaker geometry for controlled chip evacuation
• Clamp-style insert holding via Tang-Grip system for repeatable seating
• Compliant with ISO 13399 tooling data standards

Compatibility

Designed for use with Tang-Grip series toolholders that accept TAG-style inserts with a 1.4 mm insert size code. Compatible across ISO material groups H, K, M, P, and S as indicated by the IC807 grade designation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician with the machine in a fully stopped and locked-out state. Ensure the Tang-Grip toolholder pocket is clean and free of debris before seating the insert. Use the appropriate clamp screw torque as specified by the toolholder manufacturer documentation, not generic values. Inspect the insert edge and corner radius for chips or wear before each setup to avoid workpiece damage or tool failure.
