Iscar 6004885 DGN3102MF IC808 Carbide Cutoff Insert 3mm

Product Description

The ISCAR 6004885 is a solid carbide cutoff and grooving insert in the Do-Grip series, designed for precision parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It carries the DGN3102MF geometry with a 3.00 mm (0.1181 inch) cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 18.00 mm (0.7087 inch). The IC808 grade combines a submicron carbide substrate with a PVD-applied TiN and TiAlN coating for wear resistance and edge stability across a wide range of workpiece materials. The double-ended design extends insert life by providing two usable cutting edges per insert.

This insert is suited for grooving and parting applications on universal workpiece materials spanning steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and high-temperature alloys, reflected by its ISO material codes H, K, M, P, and S. The MF chipbreaker geometry promotes controlled chip formation in medium to fine finishing cuts. The self-grip holding method seats the insert securely in compatible Do-Grip toolholders without additional clamping hardware, making it a practical choice for high-production turning environments where quick insert changes matter.

Key Features

• Double-ended insert provides two cutting edges per piece
• IC808 grade with PVD TiN and TiAlN coating for extended tool life
• MF chipbreaker geometry supports controlled chip evacuation in finishing cuts
• Self-grip insert holding method for fast, toolholder-free seating
• 0.20 mm (0.0079 inch) corner radius and 7-degree relief angle for clean edge engagement
• Compatible with universal workpiece materials across ISO material groups H, K, M, P, and S

Compatibility

Designed for use in ISCAR Do-Grip series toolholders that accept the DGN insert style with a 3102 size code. Compatible with universal workpiece materials including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous alloys, and high-temperature alloys per ISO material codes H, K, M, P, and S. Conforms to ISO 13399 tooling data standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing inserts. The self-grip design requires a compatible Do-Grip toolholder pocket in good condition for proper clamping force. Inspect the toolholder pocket for wear or debris before inserting to ensure accurate seating and prevent premature edge failure.
