Iscar 6405053 Grooving Insert GIP080000X IC830 Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ISCAR 6405053 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Carrying the GIP080000X designation within the Cut-Grip series, it features a 0.80 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 1.60 mm. The insert is coated with AlTiN and TiN via a PVD process, providing high wear resistance and thermal stability. With a positive 7-degree rake angle and a double-ended configuration, it delivers efficient chip evacuation in demanding turning applications. Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling specialists.

This insert is engineered for left-hand grooving operations and is optimized for cutting superalloys and titanium, with ISO material codes M, P, and S. It fits toolholders in the Cut-Grip series that accept the GIP-style insert seat. The IC830 grade is suited for finishing and semi-finishing passes where tight tolerances and surface finish quality are critical. Typical applications include shallow grooving, parting assistance, and profile turning in aerospace and precision machining environments.

Key Features

• 0.80 mm cutting width for fine grooving and parting operations
• Maximum depth of cut of 1.60 mm with a maximum range up to 2.00 mm
• IC830 grade solid carbide with AlTiN and TiN PVD coating for extended tool life
• Double-ended insert design for cost-effective edge utilization
• Positive 7-degree rake angle for reduced cutting forces and clean chip formation
• X chip breaker geometry optimized for superalloy and titanium workpieces

Compatibility

Designed for use with Cut-Grip series toolholders that accept GIP-style grooving inserts with the 080000 size code. Verify toolholder seat compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Insert seating and clamping should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Secure the insert firmly using the appropriate clamp to prevent movement under cutting loads. Inspect the insert seat and clamp for wear or debris before seating a new insert.
