Sandvik Coromant 8194354 Grooving Insert C2I Carbide

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 8194354 is a carbide grooving insert designed for precision grooving and face grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It features a C2I insert style with a neutral hand orientation and a 3.000 mm (0.1181 inch) cutting width. The insert carries Manufacturer Grade 1225 with a PVD-applied TiAlN/TiAlSiN/TiSiN multilayer coating for extended tool life in steel and stainless steel applications. Two cutting edges are available per insert, and the TF chip breaker geometry promotes efficient chip control during interrupted and continuous grooving cuts. CNC machinists and toolroom technicians handling precision turning work are the primary users.

This insert is suited for external, internal, and face grooving operations on workpieces made from steel and stainless steel. It fits indexable grooving toolholders designed for the C2I insert series and G2 insert seat size. The neutral rake and zero lead angle make it applicable across a range of groove profiles where a square-shoulder entry is required. It is cataloged under ANSI/ISO code C2I-G2N-0300-0003-TF1225 and is sold individually.

Compatibility

Designed for use with indexable grooving toolholders that accept C2I-series inserts with a G2 insert seat size. Primary workpiece materials are steel (ISO P) and stainless steel (ISO M).

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by CNC machinists or tool-crib technicians using a torx or hex key wrench as specified by the toolholder manufacturer for clamp-style insert holding. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Inspect the insert pocket and clamp for wear or debris before seating the insert. Do not exceed the manufacturer-rated depth of cut for this insert size.
