Nikcole Mini-systems GIE7GP1.0LRGOLD Carbide Cutoff Insert

Product Description

The NIKCOLE MINI-SYSTEMS GIE7GP1.0LRGOLD is a solid carbide cutoff and grooving insert from the Nikcole Mini-Systems series. It features a 1.00 mm (0.0394 inch) cutting width, a 7-degree right-hand lead angle, and a GP chipbreaker geometry. The insert is PVD coated and carries a C6 material grade, making it suited for demanding parting and grooving operations. With an overall length of 17.00 mm (0.669 inch) and a cutting height of 7.00 mm (0.2756 inch), it is a compact, precision-ground insert intended for use by machinists and toolroom professionals on CNC lathes and turning centers.

This insert is designed for cut-off and grooving applications in a production or job-shop turning environment. The right-hand lead angle and left-hand insert hand orientation direct cutting forces appropriately for standard right-hand turning setups. The GP chipbreaker is appropriate for general-purpose grooving across a range of workpiece materials. A maximum depth of cut of 6.00 mm (0.2362 inch) covers most standard parting and shallow grooving work. The multi-use designation means a single insert style can serve both cutoff and grooving operations, reducing the number of tooling SKUs required at the machine.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing the insert from its holder. Confirm the insert is fully seated and the clamping mechanism is secure before resuming cutting operations. Follow the toolholder manufacturer torque guidelines for clamping screws and do not exceed the specified maximum depth of cut of 6.00 mm.
