Seco 03334922 Cutoff Insert Carbide 3.1mm TGS2050

Product Description

The SECO 03334922 is a carbide cutoff insert designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Manufactured to the Series 150.10 standard, this insert features a 3.1 mm (0.122 inch) cutting width with a neutral lead angle and zero relief angle. The TGS2050 manufacturer grade incorporates a PVD-applied TiAlN and TiSiN coating, providing thermal resistance and edge toughness suited to a wide range of workpiece materials. Clamping-style holding keeps the insert secured under interrupted cuts and consistent feed conditions. Machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop environments install this insert as part of tooled-up parting assemblies.

This insert is appropriate for use in Series 150.10 cutoff and grooving toolholders configured for clamp-style insert retention. It suits applications where a neutral lead angle and consistent 3.1 mm groove width are required, including part-off operations on bar stock, shaft turning, and groove profiling. The PVD TiAlN and TiSiN coating makes it well suited to dry or semi-dry cutting of steel and stainless materials at moderate to high surface speeds. Minimum order quantity is 10 units; package quantity is 1.

Key Features

• 3.1 mm (0.122 inch) cutting width for precise parting and grooving
• Neutral lead angle and zero relief angle for stable, repeatable cuts
• Clamp-style insert holding method for secure seating under load
• Chipbreaker designation 16 for controlled chip formation
• Series 150.10 geometry for compatibility with matching toolholder seats

Compatibility

Designed for use with Series 150.10 clamp-style cutoff and grooving toolholders that accept insert seat size 3. Confirm toolholder series and seat size before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician with the machine in a locked-out, de-energized state. Seat the insert fully into the pocket and verify clamp engagement before cycling the spindle. Inspect the insert seat for chips or debris that could cause improper seating or premature edge failure. Follow the toolholder manufacturer's clamping torque guidance and applicable shop safety procedures.
