Built to the 9NR insert style in the Snap Tap series, it features a 0.068-inch cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 0.068 inches. The CP500 manufacturer grade uses a micrograin carbide substrate with a PVD-applied TiAlN and TiN multilayer coating, delivering thermal resistance and edge durability across a broad range of workpiece materials. This insert is installed by machinists and CNC lathe operators in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 00077956 is suited for grooving applications across universal workpiece material categories, covering ferrous, non-ferrous, exotic alloys, hardened materials, and plastics as indicated by material codes H, K, M, N, O, P, and S. The right-hand cutting geometry and FG chip breaker are optimized for tight-tolerance groove profiles. The insert seats into a size 9 insert seat and is held in place by a clamp-style holding method, consistent with standard Snap Tap toolholder configurations. Typical applications include O-ring grooves, snap-ring grooves, and parting-adjacent groove operations on turned components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.068-inch cutting width with matching 0.068-inch maximum depth of cut for precise groove dimensioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCP500 micrograin solid carbide grade with PVD TiAlN and TiN coating for extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFG chip breaker geometry supports controlled chip evacuation in grooving operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand insert orientation for standard external grooving setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISO-standard insert meets recognized dimensional and performance standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClamp-style holding method for secure, repeatable seating in compatible toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with Snap Tap series toolholders accepting a size 9 insert seat with a 0.25-inch inscribed circle.

Use the appropriate torque wrench and clamp screw per the toolholder manufacturer guidelines to secure the insert without overtightening. Inspect the insert seat and clamp for wear or debris before seating a new insert. Verify cutting direction, depth stop, and coolant alignment before resuming machine operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9NR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Snap Tap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: CP500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Micrograin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN and TiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.068 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.068 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0000 to 0.0750 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3543 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Seat Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: FG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Universal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material Codes\u003c\/strong\u003e: H, K, M, N, O, P, S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.12 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SECO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00077956\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51557730877746,"sku":"00077956","price":78.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/787d923569fe5cea142c945f1b4b41bf.jpg?v=1786393764","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-00077956-grooving-insert-0-068-in-cp500-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
