Iscar 6200235 Grooving Insert HGPL3003 IC908 Tialn

Product Description

The ISCAR 6200235 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Built to the HGPL insert style in the IC908 manufacturer grade, it features a PVD-applied TiAlN coating for extended tool life across a broad range of workpiece materials. The insert is left-hand oriented, with a 3.00 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 1.80 mm. Its submicron carbide substrate and positive rake angle of 7 degrees support clean chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces in demanding turning applications. Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician using a clamp-style insert holding method.

This insert belongs to the ISCAR Heliface series and is suited for grooving applications in both production and job-shop turning environments. The double-end configuration extends usable insert life. The IC908 grade with TiAlN finish is rated for universal workpiece material compatibility, covering ISO material groups H, K, M, P, and S, making it appropriate for steel, stainless, cast iron, high-temperature alloys, and non-ferrous metals. It is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

Installation Notes

Insert replacement should be performed by a qualified machinist with the machine powered down and the spindle fully stopped. Use the appropriate torque wrench and clamp screw specified by the toolholder manufacturer to seat the insert securely without over-torquing. Inspect the insert pocket and clamp for wear or debris before seating a new insert. Follow applicable shop safety procedures and machine manufacturer guidelines during tooling changes.
