It carries the ISO designation MEFL 8-1.50-0.20 IC908 and features a PVD-applied TiAlN coating over a fine-grained carbide substrate. The IC908 grade delivers high hardness and wear resistance across a broad range of workpiece materials. With a 1.50 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 5.50 mm, this insert is suited for tight-tolerance groove profiles where dimensional consistency is critical. The left-hand orientation and clamp-and-screw holding method ensure rigid, repeatable seating in compatible toolholders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert belongs to the ISCAR Min-Cut series and is intended for use on CNC turning and multi-task machines in both production and job-shop environments. The IC908 grade with TiAlN finish supports universal workpiece material compatibility, covering ISO material groups H, K, M, P, and S. Typical applications include grooving hardened steels, stainless alloys, cast irons, non-ferrous materials, and superalloys. It is used by machinists and CNC programmers working on precision turned components where groove width tolerance and surface finish are priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction with fine-grained substrate for edge strength and dimensional stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePVD TiAlN coating for high heat resistance and extended tool life across diverse materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.50 mm cutting width with a 0.20 mm corner radius for clean, accurate groove profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeft-hand insert orientation for specific toolholder and approach configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClamp and screw holding method for secure, repeatable insert indexing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with ISO material groups H, K, M, P, and S for broad application versatility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with ISCAR Min-Cut series toolholders that accept the MEF8 insert style with clamp-and-screw retention.

Power down and lock out the machine before changing inserts. Use the correct torx or hex key to seat the clamping screw to the toolholder manufacturer's specified torque  -  do not overtighten or use impact tools on the clamping screw. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping surfaces for chips or debris before seating the new insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: MEF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: MEFL 8-1.50-0.20 IC908\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: IC908\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fine-Grained\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Left Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.50 mm (0.0590 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.50 mm (0.2170 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.00 mm to 10.00 mm (0.2000 to 0.3000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.20 mm (0.0079 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17.40 mm (0.6850 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.60 mm (0.1020 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.60 mm (0.2600 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp and Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Universal (H, K, M, P, S)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Min-Cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 13399\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISCAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6410659\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ISCAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67581817258290,"sku":"6410659","price":67.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e24fc1cd73e66c10e3053c3966ab883a.jpg?v=1790406930","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/iscar-6410659-grooving-insert-mef8-1-50-0-20-ic908-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
