Kennametal 2599534 Grooving Insert NR3062 KC5025 Carbide

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 2599534 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision external grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Manufactured to the NR3062 insert style in the Top Notch series, it features a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process, delivering high heat resistance and extended tool life in demanding cutting conditions. The insert provides a 3.18 mm cutting width with a maximum depth of cut of 3.81 mm and a full corner radius of 1.59 mm. It is supplied in a right-hand orientation with a neutral rake geometry. Machinists, CNC operators, and tool-room technicians working in production turning environments are the primary installers of this insert.

This insert is suited for grooving and profiling applications on ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials where the KC5025 carbide grade is specified. It fits machines and toolholders compatible with the Kennametal Top Notch NR insert series. The 55-degree included angle geometry makes it appropriate for both straight grooving and contour work within the depth-of-cut range of 3.00 mm to 4.00 mm. It is intended for single-use tooling replacement in production settings and is not rated as a multi-use regrindable tool.

Installation Notes

This insert is installed by a machinist or CNC toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Seat the insert fully and evenly in the toolholder pocket and verify clamping torque per the toolholder manufacturer specification before resuming cuts. Inspect the toolholder pocket for wear or damage each time an insert is replaced to avoid premature edge failure.
