Iscar 6405403 Cutoff Insert 1mm Carbide IC1008 Swisscut

Product Description

The ISCAR 6405403 is a solid carbide cutoff and grooving insert in the Swisscut series, designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and Swiss-type screw machines. It carries manufacturer grade IC1008 with a PVD-applied TiAlN and TiN coating, making it suited for a broad range of workpiece materials including steel, cast iron, stainless, non-ferrous, and heat-resistant alloys. The insert measures 1.00 mm (0.0394 inches) cutting width, with an overall length of 22.00 mm (0.8661 inches) and a cutting height of 7.00 mm (0.2756 inches). It features a neutral lead angle, right-hand orientation, and a 7-degree relief angle. Installation is screw-held, and the insert is rated for a maximum depth of cut of 4.00 mm (0.1575 inches).

This insert is intended for use in Swisscut-compatible toolholders on Swiss-type automatic lathes and CNC turning centers. It is a single-end insert suited for precision parting and grooving tasks where tight tolerances and clean surface finish are required. The IC1008 grade with PVD coating performs across universal workpiece material categories, making it a practical choice for job shops and production environments running varied material types.
