It carries a KCU25 grade designation with a PVD-applied AlTiN coating, delivering heat and wear resistance suited to interrupted cuts and moderate to high cutting speeds. The insert features a right-hand orientation, a 3.18 mm (0.1252 inch) cutting width, and a maximum depth of cut of 6.35 mm (0.2500 inch). With a 12-degree rake angle and K-style chip breaker, it promotes controlled chip evacuation in steel and cast iron applications. Machinists and CNC tool setters working in production turning environments are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is intended for use in Top Notch series grooving toolholders that accept NFD-style inserts with clamp-style holding. It suits metric-preference setups and is applicable across a depth-of-cut range of 5.00 mm to 10.00 mm, making it appropriate for medium-depth groove profiles. Typical applications include external grooving, undercut machining, and snap-ring groove cutting on turned components in both job-shop and production environments. The 55-degree included angle geometry and 0.19 mm (0.0075 inch) corner radius suit profiles requiring controlled geometry with a near-sharp nose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKCU25 solid carbide grade with PVD AlTiN coating for wear and heat resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3.18 mm cutting width with a maximum depth of cut of 6.35 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand insert orientation, NFD insert style\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eK-style chip breaker with 12-degree rake angle for controlled chip flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClamp-type holding method for rigid, repeatable seating in Top Notch toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eC2 and C6 material grade classifications, covering steel and cast iron workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in Top Notch series clamp-style grooving toolholders accepting NFD insert style.

Seat the insert fully into the toolholder pocket before engaging the clamp, and verify clamp screw torque per the toolholder manufacturer specification. Inspect the insert seat and clamp for chips or debris before mounting to ensure proper contact and prevent insert rocking. Replace the insert at first signs of flank wear, edge chipping, or surface finish degradation on the workpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: NFD\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: KCU25\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C2, C6\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: AlTiN\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: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.18 mm (0.1252 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\u003eDepth 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\u003eCutting Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.74 mm (0.3440 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.98 mm (0.196 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\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 55 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: K\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3125\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.025 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 4109654\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51742344773938,"sku":"4109654","price":54.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/14a962a6e941202968072422de81ca8e.jpg?v=1788836888","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-4109654-grooving-insert-nfd3125k-kcu25-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
