It carries a C2 carbide grade with a PVD-applied TiN coating, which helps extend tool life on ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials. The SG chip breaker geometry controls chip flow in shallow-to-medium depth groove cuts. With a cutting width of 0.80 mm (0.0315 inches) and a maximum depth of cut of 2.54 mm (0.1000 inches), this insert is suited for fine, tight-tolerance groove profiles where dimensional consistency is critical. It is secured by a screw-clamping holding method for positive, repeatable seating in compatible toolholders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is used in production and job-shop turning environments where left-hand grooving of small-diameter features is required. Typical applications include internal and external groove machining on shafts, bushings, and precision-turned components. The GIE insert style and 7SG08 size code place it within the Nikcole Mini-Systems toolholder family, making it a direct fit for holders designed around that system. It is installed and changed by CNC machinists and toolroom technicians working with small-part turning operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction with PVD TiN coating for extended wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLeft-hand cutting orientation for dedicated left-hand grooving setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.80 mm cutting width for fine, tight-tolerance groove profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSG chip breaker geometry promotes controlled chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-clamping holding method ensures secure, repeatable insert seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufactured to ISO 9001 quality standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with Nikcole Mini-Systems GIE-series toolholders that accept the 7SG08 insert size in a left-hand configuration.

Use the manufacturer-specified torque driver or screw key for the clamping screw to ensure proper seating without overtightening. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or debris before installing a new insert. Verify cutting direction and toolholder hand orientation match the programmed tool path before resuming operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: GIE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: GIE-7-SG-0.8 L\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.80 mm (0.0315 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.54 mm (0.1000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.00 to 3.00 mm (0.1000 to 0.1500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.00 mm (0.2756 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17.00 mm (0.6693 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.00 mm (0.0787 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN\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: SG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Left Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw\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\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 9001\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: NIKCOLE MINI-SYSTEMS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: GIE7SG0.8L C2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NIKCOLE MINI-SYSTEMS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67906232156466,"sku":"GIE7SG0.8L C2","price":250.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ad743de9b3bfb1aaf0af6f93cc1812b0.jpg?v=1791166363","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nikcole-mini-systems-gie7sg0-8l-c2-grooving-insert-c2","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
