Tool-flo 562662RJ5R Grooving Insert GP3 Solid Carbide

Product Description

The TOOL-FLO 562662RJ5R is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision grooving and parting operations on CNC turning centers and lathes. Built to FLG insert style in size 2062, it features a 1.57 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 2.79 mm. The insert carries a GP3 manufacturer grade with a micrograin carbide substrate and a PVD-applied TiN coating for improved wear resistance and edge retention. It is a right-hand insert with a positive rake angle of 55 degrees, making it suited for efficient chip evacuation on a range of workpiece materials. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals use this insert in production and job-shop turning environments.

The 562662RJ5R is part of the Flo-Lock series, engineered for secure, repeatable seating in compatible Flo-Lock grooving toolholders. It is applied in external grooving, face grooving, and parting operations on bar stock, turned components, and similar workpieces. The insert is not designed as a multi-use tool and is intended for dedicated grooving applications. Typical installation scenarios include high-volume CNC turning operations where consistent groove width and depth accuracy are required across production runs.

Key Features

• Solid carbide micrograin substrate for rigidity and edge integrity under interrupted and continuous cuts
• PVD TiN coating applied for surface hardness and reduced built-up edge
• 1.57 mm cutting width with a maximum depth of cut of 2.79 mm
• Positive rake geometry at 55 degrees promotes free cutting and chip flow
• Corner radius range of 0.005 to 0.010 inches provides a controlled blend at groove walls
• Right-hand orientation with a 3-degree lead angle for accurate entry into the workpiece

Compatibility

Designed for use with Flo-Lock series grooving toolholders accepting FLG-2062 style inserts. ISO code FLG-2062R applies. Cross-reference: FLG-2062R/L per manufacturer documentation.

Installation Notes

Installation and indexing of grooving inserts should be performed by qualified machinists with machine power off and all motion axes at a full stop. Use the appropriate torx or hex key to seat the insert per the toolholder manufacturer torque guidance. Inspect the insert pocket for chips or debris before seating to ensure proper contact and repeatability. Confirm insert orientation and hand designation match the toolholder before engaging the cut.
