Iscar 6405230 Grooving Insert GIF478055F IC8250 Carbide

Product Description

The ISCAR 6405230 is a solid carbide grooving insert in the Cut-Grip series, designed for external grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Carrying the IC8250 grade with an Al2O3 CVD coating, this insert delivers wear resistance and thermal stability when cutting stainless steel and carbon steel. The neutral hand orientation and 4.78 mm cutting width suit a wide range of grooving applications. The insert is clamped into a compatible Cut-Grip toolholder and is intended for use by machinists and toolroom professionals in production and job-shop environments.

This insert is suited for external grooving, face grooving, and parting on stainless steel and steel workpieces in both production and job-shop settings. The IC8250 grade with CVD Al2O3 coating is formulated for ISO material groups M and P, making it appropriate for general-purpose stainless steel and carbon steel turning operations. The positive rake angle and F chip breaker geometry promote controlled chip formation in these material groups.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool change should be performed by a qualified machinist with the machine spindle fully stopped and locked out. Seat the insert firmly in the toolholder pocket and torque the clamp screw according to the toolholder manufacturer specifications before engaging the workpiece. Inspect the insert seating surface and clamp for chips or debris before each insert change. Do not exceed the maximum depth of cut rating for this insert grade and geometry.
