Iscar 6200192 Grooving Insert 5mm Heli-grip IC418

Product Description

The ISCAR 6200192 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Built to the Heli-Grip series standard, this insert features a 5 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 3 mm, making it well-suited for shallow to medium-depth grooving work. The IC418 manufacturer grade uses a CVD-applied Al2O3 and TiC coating for wear resistance and thermal stability at the cutting edge. The neutral hand orientation allows for straight-in grooving cuts. Installation is performed by clamping, compatible with Heli-Grip toolholders. Machinists and CNC operators working in production turning environments will find this insert a direct fit for ISO 13399-documented tooling systems.

This insert is rated primarily for cast iron workpiece materials, designated by the ISO material code K. It is classified as a multi-use insert, meaning it can be reindexed within the same holder setup where toolholder design permits. The HG-Y chip breaker geometry is engineered to control chip flow during grooving in harder, abrasive materials. The insert suits both light and medium grooving applications within the maximum depth of cut range of 3 mm to 4 mm, covering a broad range of groove profiles encountered in production machining shops.

Key Features

• 5 mm cutting width with a neutral hand orientation for straight grooving
• CVD-coated IC418 grade with Al2O3 and TiC finish for heat and wear resistance
• HG-Y chip breaker geometry designed for controlled chip evacuation in cast iron
• Maximum depth of cut of 3 mm; usable range extends to 4 mm depending on setup
• Clamp-style insert holding method for secure, repeatable seating in Heli-Grip toolholders
• Compliant with ISO 13399 tooling data standards for digital tool management integration

Compatibility

Designed for use with ISCAR Heli-Grip series toolholders accepting GRIP5008HG-Y style inserts. Primary workpiece material compatibility is cast iron (ISO material group K). The insert size code is 5008Y. Confirm toolholder acceptance of the 5008 insert size before ordering.

Installation Notes

This insert is installed and replaced by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key specified by the Heli-Grip toolholder manufacturer to seat the clamping screw; do not overtighten. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping surfaces for chips or debris before seating the new insert to ensure proper contact and prevent premature edge failure.
