Tool-flo 563662RJ5R Grooving Insert GP3 Flo-lock

Product Description

The TOOL-FLO 563662RJ5R is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision external grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Manufactured to GP3 grade from micrograin carbide stock, it features a PVD-applied TiN coating for improved wear resistance and edge retention at elevated cutting speeds. The insert is configured for right-hand cutting with a positive rake angle of 55 degrees, a cutting width of 1.57 mm (0.0618 inches), and a maximum depth of cut of 3.05 mm (0.1201 inches). It belongs to the Flo-Lock series and is intended for use by machinists and toolroom professionals working to tight dimensional tolerances.

This insert fits applications requiring controlled narrow-groove geometry in materials suited to TiN-coated micrograin carbide tooling. The Flo-Lock series is engineered for secure insert clamping and repeatable positioning in compatible FLG-style grooving tool holders. The ISO designation is FLG-3062R, and the insert size code is 3062. With a corner radius range of 0.0050 to 0.0100 inches and a lead angle of 3 degrees, it is well suited for grooving operations where precise groove width and floor finish are required. It is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

Compatibility

Designed for use in compatible FLG-style Flo-Lock series grooving tool holders accepting size 3062 inserts with ISO designation FLG-3062R. Cross-reference manufacturer number FLG-3062R/L for compatible holder confirmation.

Installation Notes

Insert seating and clamping should be performed by a qualified machinist with the machine powered down and all axes at rest. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw threads for debris or wear before seating the insert. Use the tool holder manufacturer's recommended torque driver for the clamping screw - do not overtighten. Confirm insert orientation and ISO designation match the holder specification before resuming cutting operations.
