Iscar 6403071 Face Grooving Tool 3mm Groove Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ISCAR 6403071 is a solid carbide face grooving tool designed for internal grooving operations on turned components. It features a 7 mm shank diameter and cuts a 3 mm wide groove, making it suited for precision grooving in bores and recesses on CNC lathes and turning centers. The overall length is 35 mm, with a 20 mm projection and a maximum hole depth capacity of 20 mm. Solid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance necessary for maintaining tight tolerances in demanding grooving applications. This tool is typically installed and run by machinists and toolroom technicians working in production or job-shop turning environments.

This face grooving tool is intended for use in internal bore grooving applications where a minimum hole diameter of 15 mm is present. It is well suited for creating retaining ring grooves, oil grooves, and similar features on the face of a bore in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The compact 35 mm overall length and solid carbide construction make it a practical choice for small-diameter bore work on CNC turning centers and manual lathes in both production and maintenance machining settings.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and extended tool life in grooving operations
• 3 mm groove width for precision face groove cutting
• 7 mm shank diameter for secure toolholder engagement
• 20 mm projection accommodates reach into bores up to 20 mm deep
• Minimum hole diameter of 15 mm keeps this tool viable for small-bore internal work
• 35 mm overall length suits compact tooling setups on CNC and manual lathes

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style face grooving tool for use in standard 7 mm bore grooving toolholders on CNC turning centers and manual lathes requiring a 3 mm groove width and a minimum 15 mm bore diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Before mounting, ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out per shop lockout/tagout procedures. Seat the 7 mm shank fully into the toolholder and secure per the toolholder manufacturer guidelines. Verify projection length and tool alignment before initiating a cut to avoid deflection or tool breakage in small-diameter bores.
