Iscar 6404285 GPV4356 IC5010 Grooving Insert 4.03mm

Product Description

The ISCAR 6404285 is a solid carbide grooving insert in the Cut-Grip series, designed for precision external grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. This single-end insert carries the IC5010 grade with an Al2O3 CVD coating, making it well suited for machining cast iron and other ISO K-class workpiece materials. The GPV4356 insert style delivers a 4.03 mm cutting width with a maximum depth of cut of 3.42 mm and a positive rake angle of 7 degrees, providing controlled chip flow and reduced cutting forces. It is held in place by a clamp-style toolholder and is used by machinists and tooling specialists in job shop and production environments.

This insert is applied in external grooving, parting, and recessing operations where precise groove width control is required. Its neutral hand orientation makes it compatible with standard clamp-style Cut-Grip toolholders. The IC5010 grade with Al2O3 CVD finish is optimized for dry or wet cutting of cast iron, giving it strong performance in automotive, fluid power, and general machining applications where cast iron components are common. It is a single-use, non-reversible insert sold individually within a minimum order quantity of 10 pieces.

Compatibility

Designed for use with ISCAR Cut-Grip series clamp-style grooving toolholders that accept the GPV insert style in size 4356. Verify toolholder compatibility using the insert style code GPV and size code 43561 when selecting a mating holder.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician with the machine powered down and all axes at a safe home position. Seat the insert fully into the toolholder pocket before engaging the clamping screw, and confirm the insert is flush and stable before resuming cuts. Do not exceed the rated maximum depth of cut for this insert. Follow the toolholder manufacturer torque guidance for the clamping screw to avoid insert cracking or improper seating.
