Kennametal 5941709 Indexable Cutoff Blade Double End Neutral

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 5941709 is an EVBS-style double end neutral indexable cutoff blade designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It measures 0.844 inches (21.45 mm) in blade height, 0.079 inches (2.00 mm) in blade width, and 4.344 inches (110.35 mm) in overall length. The neutral cutting direction makes it suitable for standard right-hand turning setups. The blade uses a clamp-style insert holding method and accepts EG0200M02P02 inserts with a 2 mm insert width. It is part of the Beyond Evolution series, engineered for consistent insert seating and repeatable cutoff performance in production turning environments. This blade is installed and replaced by machinists and CNC toolroom technicians.

This cutoff blade is used in production and job-shop turning operations where parting off and deep grooving are routine. It fits turning centers and engine lathes equipped with compatible toolholders that accept EVBS-series blades with a 2 mm insert seat size. Typical applications include parting bar stock, grooving for snap rings or O-ring seats, and cutoff operations on steel, stainless, cast iron, and non-ferrous materials. The double-end design extends blade service life by allowing both ends to be used before replacement.

Installation Notes

This blade is installed by machinists or CNC toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the machine before removing or seating the blade in the toolholder. Ensure the clamping hardware is torqued according to the toolholder manufacturer specifications and that the insert is fully seated before resuming cuts. Inspect the blade and insert seat for chips or debris before each insert change.
