Built to the Beyond Evolution series standard, this insert carries the EG-P2GUP geometry with a KCU10 grade and an AlTiN coating applied via PVD process. It features a 2.39 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 1.74 mm, making it well-suited for tight, controlled groove profiles. The GUP chip breaker promotes positive chip control, and the 22-degree rake angle supports efficient cutting action on a range of workpiece materials. Licensed machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop environments rely on this insert for consistent, repeatable grooving performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is intended for use in compatible EG-P style toolholders on CNC lathes and turning centers handling metric grooving applications. The neutral hand orientation allows straightforward mounting in standard EG-P toolholder seats. With an insert size designation of 2 and a cutting height of 3.25 mm, it fits toolholder pockets designed to that specification. It is a single-use, non-multi-use insert intended for replacement after wear rather than reconditioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKCU10 solid carbide grade with PVD-applied AlTiN coating for wear and heat resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.39 mm cutting width with maximum depth of cut of 1.74 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGUP chip breaker geometry for positive chip control during grooving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e22-degree positive rake angle reduces cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorner radius of 0.20 mm for controlled groove edge definition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeyond Evolution series construction for dimensional consistency insert-to-insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in EG-P style grooving toolholders compatible with insert size 2 seats.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the turret is in a safe index position before changing inserts. Use the correct torx or clamping screw driver as specified by the toolholder manufacturer to achieve proper seating torque without over-tightening. Inspect the toolholder pocket for chips or debris before seating the new insert to prevent seating errors or premature edge failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Beyond Evolution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: EG-P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KCU10\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\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: GUP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.39 mm (0.0940 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.74 mm (0.0680 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.25 mm (0.1280 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.20 mm (0.0080 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 22 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.35 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.39 mm (0.094 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1280 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-use Tool\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurement Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.76 inches (L) x 0.59 inches (W) x 0.59 inches (H)\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: 6012710\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51748802724146,"sku":"6012710","price":319.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fb5c80232ebfc95e75110df12ba2409b_d956ffd4-ccdf-4d73-a454-316894412e29.jpg?v=1788898653","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-6012710-grooving-insert-kcu10-2-39mm-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
