Iscar 6200300 HFPR3003 IC808 Grooving Insert 3mm Heliface

Product Description

The ISCAR 6200300 is a solid carbide grooving insert in the Heliface series, designed for precision grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Carrying the IC808 manufacturer grade with a PVD-applied AlTiN, TiAlN, and TiN multilayer coating, this insert delivers wear resistance and thermal stability across a broad range of workpiece materials. It features a 3.00 mm cutting width, a maximum depth of cut of 1.50 mm, and a positive 7-degree rake angle. The double-ended design extends usable tool life per insert. Machinists and CNC operators in production turning environments install this insert into compatible Heliface-series clamping toolholders.

This insert is suited for grooving applications in both light and medium-duty turning setups. Its universal primary workpiece material rating covers steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous alloys, and heat-resistant superalloys, corresponding to ISO material codes P, M, K, S, and H. The clamp-style insert holding method ensures rigid seating during interrupted cuts and high-feed passes. It is a right-hand cutting insert intended for standard OD grooving operations on conventional and gang-style turning configurations.

Key Features

• IC808 grade solid carbide with PVD-applied AlTiN, TiAlN, and TiN coating for extended tool life
• 3.00 mm cutting width with a maximum depth of cut of 1.50 mm
• Positive 7-degree rake angle reduces cutting forces on thin-wall and difficult-to-machine workpieces
• Double-ended insert design provides two usable cutting edges per insert
• 0.30 mm corner radius for controlled groove geometry and surface finish
• Conforms to ISO 13399 tooling data standards for compatibility with CAM and tool management systems

Compatibility

Designed for use with ISCAR Heliface-series clamping toolholders that accept the HFPR 3003 insert style. Compatible with workpiece materials across ISO groups P, M, K, S, and H as designated by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing any insert. Ensure the insert pocket and clamping seat are clean and free of chips before installation to maintain proper seating and prevent insert fracture. Follow the toolholder manufacturer torque and clamping guidelines for the Heliface clamp mechanism.
