Built to the Mini-Systems series standard, this left-hand insert carries a C2 carbide material grade and features an E-shape insert code with two cutting edges. The insert measures 0.6693 inches (17 mm) in length and 0.1250 inches (3.17 mm) in width, with an insert thickness of 0.1248 inches. Maximum depth of cut reaches 0.2360 inches. This insert is intended for use by machinists and tool-room professionals running CNC or manual turning equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for grooving applications on stainless steel and steel workpieces, covering primary workpiece material code M. The Mini-Systems series targets precision internal and external grooving where tight tolerances and consistent edge geometry are required. Its left-hand orientation makes it appropriate for specific toolholder configurations that require a left-hand cutting direction. Typical install scenarios include production turning centers and manual lathes equipped with compatible Mini-Systems toolholders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction with C2 material grade for wear resistance on steel and stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeft-hand cutting orientation for compatible toolholder configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo cutting edges per insert for extended service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eE-shape insert code with insert size code 7 for consistent seating and repeatability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum depth of cut of 0.2360 inches suitable for standard grooving passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInsert length of 0.6693 inches (17 mm) and width of 0.1250 inches (3.17 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with NIKCOLE MINI-SYSTEMS series toolholders configured for GIE-style, left-hand, size 7 grooving inserts.
