Iscar 6405174 Grooving Insert TIGER1453152 IC830 Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ISCAR 6405174 is a solid carbide grooving insert from the Cut-Grip series, designed for precision grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It carries an IC830 manufacturer grade with a PVD-applied AlTiN and TiN dual coating that supports high-heat cutting environments. The insert features a 0.572-inch cutting width and a positive rake angle of 7 degrees, promoting clean chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces. A 0.060-inch corner radius helps manage edge stress during interrupted cuts. This insert is intended for use by machinists and tooling specialists working in production turning environments.

This insert is suited for grooving, parting, and profiling applications where dimensional accuracy and surface finish are critical. Its primary workpiece material designations include superalloys and titanium (ISO material codes M, P, and S), making it appropriate for aerospace, medical, and high-performance industrial component machining. The single-end, clamp-held design integrates with compatible Cut-Grip toolholders. The neutral hand orientation supports straight radial grooving applications. It is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

Key Features

• IC830 grade solid carbide substrate with PVD AlTiN and TiN coating for heat and wear resistance
• 0.572-inch cutting width suitable for medium to wide grooving operations
• Positive 7-degree rake angle promotes chip flow and reduces cutting forces
• 0.060-inch corner radius for edge strength during grooving in difficult materials
• Neutral hand orientation for straight radial grooving
• Conforms to ISO 13399 tooling data standards for system integration

Compatibility

Designed for use with compatible ISCAR Cut-Grip series clamping toolholders that accept the TIGER insert style in the 1453152 size code. Intended for machining superalloys and titanium workpieces as indicated by ISO material codes M, P, and S.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the machine spindle is stopped and all energy sources are locked out before seating or replacing the insert. Use the appropriate torx or clamping key specified for the Cut-Grip toolholder to secure the insert firmly in the pocket. Inspect the insert pocket and clamp for wear or debris before installation to ensure proper seating and repeatability.
