Carrying the KC5025 manufacturer grade with a PVD-applied TiAlN coating, this insert offers strong wear resistance in a range of workpiece materials. It is a left-hand insert with a 2.39 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 6.35 mm, making it well suited for shallow to medium-depth groove profiles. Machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop environments are the primary installers of this insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is intended for grooving applications on metalworking lathes where controlled chip formation and dimensional accuracy are required. The K chip breaker geometry promotes positive chip control during grooving passes. With a positive rake angle of 10 degrees and an included angle of 55 degrees, the insert geometry reduces cutting forces and supports consistent groove wall finish. It is sized for the Top Notch toolholder system and is appropriate for use in both ferrous and non-ferrous machining contexts as defined by material grades C2 and C6.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide substrate with PVD TiAlN coating for extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.39 mm cutting width with a maximum depth of cut of 6.35 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeft-hand insert orientation for dedicated left-hand toolholder setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive 10-degree rake angle reduces cutting forces during grooving passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eK chip breaker geometry promotes reliable chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorner radius of 0.19 mm (0.0075 inches) supports sharp, accurate groove profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with Top Notch series toolholders accepting NGD-style inserts at insert size 3094.

Use the appropriate Top Notch insert clamp and torque the retaining screw according to the toolholder manufacturer specifications. Inspect the insert seat and clamp for debris or damage before seating the new insert. Confirm correct insert hand orientation relative to the programmed tool path before resuming cutting operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: NGD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Top Notch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KC5025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\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: 2.39 mm (0.0941 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.35 mm (0.2500 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: 0.19 mm (0.0075 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 55 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: K\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3094\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C2, C6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurement Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0234 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: KENNAMETAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1818115\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728453304626,"sku":"1818115","price":214.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4b249fac2938bb421f680ce47b637569.jpg?v=1788691428","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-1818115-grooving-insert-ngd3094k-kc5025-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
