It carries the GEPI157015 insert style designation within the Cut-Grip self-gripping series and is coated with TiAlN via a PVD process for wear resistance across a wide range of workpiece materials. The IC908 submicron carbide grade delivers a cutting width of 1.57 mm and a maximum depth of cut of 2.01 mm. A positive rake angle of 8 degrees and a 0.15 mm corner radius give the insert clean, consistent chip formation. Machinists and CNC lathe operators install this insert in compatible Cut-Grip toolholders as a double-ended insert, extending tool life between index changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for universal application across multiple workpiece material groups, including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, high-temperature alloys, and non-ferrous materials, corresponding to ISO material codes P, M, K, S, and H. It fits production turning environments where consistent groove geometry and tight tolerances are required. The double-end design allows the operator to index to a fresh cutting edge without changing the insert body, reducing downtime in high-volume turning operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIC908 submicron solid carbide grade with TiAlN PVD coating for extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.57 mm cutting width with a maximum depth of cut of 2.01 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle of 8 degrees reduces cutting forces and improves chip flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.15 mm corner radius supports precise groove geometry and reduced burr formation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble-ended insert design provides two usable cutting edges per insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSelf-grip insert holding method for secure, repeatable seating in Cut-Grip toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConforms to ISO 13399 standard for cutting tool data representation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in ISCAR Cut-Grip series toolholders that accept the GEPI insert style.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before removing or seating any insert. Use the appropriate insert seating tool or torx key as specified by the toolholder manufacturer — do not use substitute tools that could damage the self-grip pocket. Inspect the toolholder pocket for chips or debris before installing a fresh cutting edge to ensure full contact and accurate tool height.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: GEPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: GEPI 1.57-0.15\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cut-Grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: IC908\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide (Submicron)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating \/ Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.57 mm (0.0620 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.01 mm (0.0790 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.00 mm to 3.00 mm (0.0750 to 0.1000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.90 mm (0.1140 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10.01 mm (0.3940 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.15 mm (0.0060 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Self-Grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Universal (ISO codes H, K, M, P, S)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 13399\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.03 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISCAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6403345\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ISCAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51754793238834,"sku":"6403345","price":463.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/34b76682bed5ce7321b6f56b62954f6e.jpg?v=1788948713","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/iscar-6403345-grooving-insert-gepi157015-ic908-tialn","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
