Iscar 6492284 Grooving Insert GIF400E040F IC8250 4mm

Product Description

The ISCAR 6492284 is a solid carbide grooving insert in the Cut-Grip series, designed for precision grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. This double-ended insert carries the GIF400E040F geometry with a 4 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 13 mm (0.5118 inches). The IC8250 grade features a CVD-applied Al2O3 coating that provides thermal resistance and wear protection during continuous and interrupted cuts. It is installed and indexed by machinists and CNC lathe operators working in high-production turning environments where insert life and repeatability matter.

This insert is suited for grooving and turning applications on stainless steel and steel workpieces, aligning with ISO material groups M and P. The positive rake angle of 7 degrees and the F chip breaker geometry support controlled chip formation at moderate to high feed rates. The clamp-style insert holding method ensures secure seating in compatible Cut-Grip toolholders. It is applicable in both roughing and finishing groove passes where a 4 mm wide, full-profile groove is required.

Key Features

• 4 mm cutting width with a maximum depth of cut of 13 mm (0.5118 inches)
• Double-ended design extends usable insert life per unit
• IC8250 grade with CVD Al2O3 coating for high wear and heat resistance
• Positive rake angle (7 degrees) with F chip breaker for efficient chip control
• Corner radius of 0.40 mm (0.0157 inches) for controlled groove profile
• Compliant with ISO 13399 insert identification standards

Compatibility

Designed for use with compatible ISCAR Cut-Grip series clamping toolholders that accept the GIF insert style and 400E040 insert size. Confirmed primary workpiece materials are stainless steel (ISO group M) and steel (ISO group P).

Installation Notes

This insert is installed by qualified machinists or CNC lathe operators. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Seat the insert fully in the toolholder pocket and confirm the clamp is properly engaged before resuming operation. Do not exceed the insert geometry's rated depth-of-cut range of 10 mm to 20 mm (0.300 inches to 1.000 inches) for the applicable toolholder setup.
