Kennametal 1792632 Grooving Insert KC5010 Carbide Tialn

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1792632 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Coated with TiAlN via a PVD process, this right-hand insert delivers wear resistance and thermal stability across a range of workpiece materials. It features a 2.39 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 3.81 mm, making it well suited for medium-depth grooving work. The KC5010 grade with a positive rake angle of 10 degrees and a K-style chip breaker promotes controlled chip flow. Licensed machinists, CNC operators, and toolroom technicians are the primary users of this insert.

This insert belongs to the Top Notch series and is sized at 3047, fitting toolholders designed for that insert family. It is appropriate for turning applications involving steel, cast iron, and similar materials within the C3 and C4 material grade range. The full-radius geometry with a corner radius of 1.19 mm supports smooth grooving passes. Typical applications include external grooving and parting on production turning equipment in both job-shop and high-volume manufacturing environments.
