Iscar 6200096 GRIP6005Y IC354 Grooving Insert 6mm

Product Description

The ISCAR 6200096 is a solid carbide grooving insert carrying grade designation GRIP6005Y in the IC354 manufacturer grade. It belongs to the Heli-Grip series and is designed for external and face grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. The insert features a TiCN PVD coating, a neutral hand orientation, a 6 mm cutting width (0.2362 inches), and a maximum depth of cut of 3.6 mm (0.1417 inches). The positive rake angle of 7 degrees and the Y-style chip breaker support controlled chip evacuation during interrupted or continuous grooving passes. Licensed machinists and CNC turning specialists are the primary installers of this insert.

This insert is suited for grooving stainless steel and steel workpieces, corresponding to ISO material codes M and P. Its corner radius of 0.50 mm (0.0197 inches) makes it appropriate for applications where a small but defined corner profile is required at the groove base. Typical use scenarios include part-off groove preparation, undercut operations, and profiling on precision turned components in job shop and production environments. The insert size code is 6005, and the overall insert length is 0.748 inches.

Installation Notes

Insert replacement should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC turning technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Use the appropriate torque wrench and insert key specified by the toolholder manufacturer to seat the insert correctly — do not overtighten by feel alone. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or debris before seating a new insert.
