Iscar 6405098 GDMY840Y IC830 Grooving Insert 8mm

Product Description

The ISCAR 6405098 is a solid carbide grooving insert in the Cut-Grip series, designed for precision grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. The insert carries ISCAR grade IC830, an AlTiN and TiN PVD-coated carbide grade engineered for extended tool life in demanding cutting conditions. It features an 8 mm cutting width, a maximum depth of cut of 25 mm, and a 4 mm corner radius. The positive rake angle of 7 degrees and Y-style chip breaker geometry promote clean chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces. This insert is installed by machinists and CNC turning specialists in production and job-shop environments.

This insert is suited for grooving and profiling operations on superalloys and titanium alloys, as well as steel workpieces. The neutral hand orientation allows use in both left-hand and right-hand toolholder setups. The self-grip holding method provides secure clamping without a top clamp, making it well-suited for tight clearance applications. It is a multi-use insert appropriate for grooving, undercutting, and profile turning where consistent width and depth control are required.

Compatibility

Designed for use with ISCAR Cut-Grip series toolholders that accept GDMY 840 style inserts. Verify toolholder seat geometry and insert size code before installation. No additional specific compatible model numbers were provided in the product data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and all axis motion is locked before changing inserts. Use the appropriate ISCAR torx or hex key specified for the Cut-Grip toolholder to seat the insert securely in the self-grip pocket. Do not exceed the maximum depth of cut rating of 25 mm, and verify workpiece material compatibility before running at production feed and speed parameters.
