Iscar 6403915 Face Grooving Tool Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ISCAR 6403915 is a solid carbide face grooving tool designed for internal face grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Built from submicron-grade solid carbide, the tool provides the rigidity and wear resistance required for consistent groove geometry in bore work. It features a 5.99 mm shank diameter and produces a 2.01 mm groove width, making it well suited for precision grooves in small-diameter bores. The 35 mm overall length and compact projection keep the tool stable under cutting loads. Machinists and CNC operators working in production or job-shop environments install this tooling for face groove applications where tight tolerances and fine surface finish are required.

This tool is configured for face grooving in bores with a minimum hole diameter of 6.10 mm. The maximum hole depth capacity is 19.99 mm, and the shank length measures 15.01 mm, giving adequate support within standard lathe toolholders. It is appropriate for use in stainless steel, alloy steel, aluminum, and other machinable materials where submicron carbide grade tooling is specified. Typical applications include retaining ring grooves, snap ring grooves, and face groove profiles on turned components in automotive, aerospace, and general precision machining environments.

Key Features

• Submicron-grade solid carbide construction for enhanced hardness and edge retention
• 2.01 mm groove width for precise face groove profiles in small bores
• Minimum bore entry diameter of 6.10 mm suits small internal features
• Maximum hole depth of 19.99 mm accommodates typical face groove reach requirements
• 35 mm overall length in a compact, low-profile form for tight workpiece clearance
• 3.99 mm projection provides controlled cutting reach without excess overhang

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard tooling option for CNC lathes and turning centers accepting 5.99 mm shank face grooving tools.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the control is in an e-stop or locked-out state before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully in the toolholder and confirm projection length before running the program. Follow the tool manufacturer and machine builder guidelines for speed, feed, and depth-of-cut parameters appropriate to the workpiece material.
