Kennametal 2599506 Grooving Insert NR3047 KC5010 Carbide

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 2599506 is a solid carbide grooving insert in the Top Notch series, designed for external grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Finished with a PVD-applied TiAlN coating, this right-hand insert offers a cutting width of 2.39 mm (0.0941 inches) and a maximum depth of cut of 3.81 mm (0.1500 inches). The insert style is NR with a full radius profile and a corner radius of 1.19 mm (0.0469 inches). The KC5010 grade is suited for applications requiring wear resistance and edge stability in demanding turning environments. Installation and tool selection are handled by machinists and CNC operators working in metalcutting trades.

This insert is intended for grooving applications in metalcutting environments where consistent groove width and depth control are required. The neutral rake geometry and full radius profile make it appropriate for producing clean, accurate grooves in a range of workpiece materials falling within C3 and C4 material grades. The Top Notch series tooling system is the intended holder platform for this insert. The metric-measured NR3047 insert size and 55-degree included angle define its seating and engagement geometry within compatible Top Notch holders.

Installation Notes

This insert is installed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key as specified by the toolholder manufacturer when seating the insert clamp. Do not exceed the rated maximum depth of cut for the holder-insert combination, and inspect the insert edge condition regularly to maintain dimensional accuracy.
