Iscar 6004427 Carbide Cutoff Insert 3mm Tang-grip

Product Description

The ISCAR 6004427 is a solid carbide cutoff and grooving insert designed for precision parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Part of the Tang-Grip series, this single-end insert features a 3.00 mm (0.1181 inch) cutting width and a 0.30 mm (0.0118 inch) corner radius, with a neutral lead angle and neutral hand orientation. The IC830 grade substrate is PVD-coated with an AlTiN and TiN finish, making it well suited for demanding cutting conditions. The UT chipbreaker geometry promotes chip control during grooving and parting passes. Installation and toolholder selection are handled by machinists and CNC tooling specialists.

This insert is engineered primarily for use on superalloys (ISO material codes M, P, and S), making it a strong choice in aerospace, power generation, and precision machining environments where difficult-to-machine materials are common. The Tang-Grip series is a dedicated grooving and parting system, and this insert is intended for use in compatible Tang-Grip toolholders. It performs in both OD grooving and parting applications on production and job-shop turning equipment.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction with IC830 manufacturer grade for toughness and wear resistance
• PVD-applied AlTiN and TiN coating for heat resistance and extended tool life in superalloy cutting
• 3.00 mm cutting width with a 0.30 mm corner radius for controlled grooving profiles
• Neutral lead angle and neutral hand — fits left- or right-hand setups without orientation restriction
• UT chipbreaker geometry engineered to manage chip evacuation during grooving and parting
• Compliant with ISO 13399 tooling data standards for integration with CAM and tool management systems

Compatibility

Designed for use with ISCAR Tang-Grip series toolholders that accept TAG-style inserts with a size code 3 seat. Compatible applications include grooving and parting operations. Verify toolholder seat geometry before installation.

Installation Notes

This insert is installed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians following the toolholder manufacturer guidelines for Tang-Grip seat engagement. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Inspect the toolholder pocket for wear or debris before seating the new insert. Do not force the insert into the pocket; proper seating relies on the Tang-Grip clamping geometry.
