Iscar 6004889 Cutoff Insert TAGN2MF IC808 2mm Carbide

Product Description

The ISCAR 6004889 is a solid carbide cutoff and grooving insert in the Tang-Grip series, carrying the TAGN2MF geometry and IC808 manufacturer grade. It delivers a 2.00 mm cutting width (0.0787 inches) with a neutral lead angle and neutral hand orientation, making it suitable for both right- and left-hand tooling setups. The PVD-applied TiN and TiAlN coating over a submicron carbide substrate provides wear resistance and edge stability during parting and grooving operations. A 0.20 mm corner radius (0.0079 inches) and 7-degree relief angle support clean, controlled cuts. The MF chipbreaker geometry aids in chip formation across a range of workpiece materials. This insert is installed by machinists and CNC operators on lathes and turning centers equipped with compatible Tang-Grip toolholders.

The 6004889 is designed for grooving and parting applications on a wide range of workpiece materials, including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous alloys, and high-temperature alloys, as indicated by the primary workpiece material codes H, K, M, P, and S. Its universal material compatibility makes it a practical stock insert for job shops and production turning operations handling varied material runs. The self-grip holding method ensures secure seating in the toolholder without additional clamping hardware. This insert is a single-end design and conforms to ISO 13399 standards for cutting tool data representation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Power down and lock out the machine before seating or removing the insert. The self-grip design seats by pressing the insert into the Tang-Grip toolholder pocket by hand or with a light mallet — do not force with excessive impact. Confirm insert seating and edge condition before resuming cutting operations.
