Iscar 6405434 Cutoff Insert 2mm Left Hand Swisscut

Product Description

The ISCAR 6405434 is a solid carbide cutoff and grooving insert designed for precision parting and grooving operations on CNC Swiss-type lathes and similar turning centers. Manufactured in the Swisscut series, this insert carries an IC1008 grade with a PVD-applied TiAlN and TiN coating for extended tool life across a wide range of workpiece materials. It features a 2.00 mm (0.0787 inch) cutting width, a 16-degree left-hand lead angle, and a 7-degree relief angle. The screw-clamp holding method ensures rigid, repeatable seating. Machinists and CNC operators working in production turning environments are the primary installers of this insert.

This insert is suited for grooving and parting applications on a broad range of materials, including ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, stainless steels, and exotic alloys, as reflected by its universal primary workpiece material designation and ISO material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S. The Swisscut series is built for Swiss-type turning applications where tight tolerances and small-diameter workpieces demand consistent chip control and precise cutting geometry. It is a single-end insert with a catalog reference of SCIL 22-200L16-00.

Installation Notes

Insert installation and replacement should be performed by a qualified CNC machinist or tooling technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key to the toolholder manufacturer's specified fastener procedure when seating the clamping screw. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or contamination before seating a new insert to ensure proper contact and runout.
