Kennametal 1793691 Cutoff Insert KC5025 Carbide 5 Mm

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1793691 is a carbide cutoff insert designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Manufactured in the A2 series with a KC5025 grade and TiAlN PVD coating, this insert delivers wear resistance and thermal stability during cut-off applications. The insert features a 5.00 mm cutting width (0.1969 inches), a 5.30 mm cutting height (0.2087 inches), and a neutral lead angle with a 2-degree relief angle. The CF chipbreaker geometry promotes chip control during through-cutting passes. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install this insert as a consumable tooling component in compatible clamp-style cut-off toolholders.

This insert is suited for cut-off and parting operations in production turning environments, including both light and moderate material removal on metals graded within the C2 and C6 material categories. The clamp-holding method secures the insert in A2-series toolholders at the designated seat size of 5. The 0.0118-inch corner radius and CF chipbreaker make it appropriate for applications requiring consistent chip evacuation and clean parting faces on bar stock and tubular workpieces.

Compatibility

Designed for use with A2-series clamp-style cut-off toolholders accepting an insert seat size of 5. Compatible with material grades C2 and C6 as specified by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician with the machine powered down and the spindle fully stopped before changing inserts. Use the appropriate torque wrench and clamp screw as specified by the toolholder manufacturer to seat the insert securely. Inspect the insert pocket and clamp for debris or wear before seating a new insert. Do not exceed the recommended depth of cut or feed rate for the KC5025 grade in the application material.
