Iscar 6450128 TGMF302F IC830 Grooving Insert 3mm Top Grip

Product Description

The ISCAR 6450128 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision external grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Designated grade IC830 with an AlTiN and TiN PVD coating, this insert delivers thermal resistance and edge wear performance needed when cutting superalloys and titanium. The double-ended TGMF302F geometry provides a 3.00 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 1.80 mm, with a 0.20 mm corner radius and a chip breaker style F profile. It is held in place by a top clamp mechanism and belongs to the ISCAR Top Grip tooling series. Installation is handled by machining professionals in production and job shop environments.

This insert is intended for use in CNC turning applications where tight groove tolerances are required on difficult-to-machine materials. The IC830 grade is rated for primary workpiece materials classified under ISO material codes M, P, and S, covering steels, stainless steels, superalloys, and titanium alloys. The neutral hand orientation and double-end design allow versatile positioning in compatible Top Grip insert holders. It is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 10 units.
