Tool-flo 593062LN4C Grooving Insert GP50 Left Hand Carbide

Product Description

The TOOL-FLO 593062LN4C is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Manufactured to the FLR-3062L ISO code and offered in the GP50 grade, this insert features a 0.125 inch (3.18 mm) cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 0.1799 inch (4.57 mm). A PVD-applied TiN coating improves surface hardness and wear resistance. The left-hand configuration and positive rake geometry support clean chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces. Machinists and toolroom specialists install these inserts in compatible Flo-Lock toolholders for grooving and parting applications on steel and similar workpiece materials.

This insert is suited for external grooving operations in production and job-shop turning environments. Its full-radius nose geometry at 0.062 inch corner radius produces a consistent, radiused groove floor without secondary operations. The GP50 carbide grade with TiN finish performs on steel workpiece materials, making it appropriate for general-purpose turning and grooving tasks. The Flo-Lock series is designed for secure insert seating and repeatable indexing, reducing setup time between insert changes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician with the machine powered down and all axes locked before insert indexing or replacement. Verify torque on the clamping screw per the toolholder manufacturer specification before resuming cuts. Inspect the toolholder pocket and locating surfaces for chips or wear prior to seating the insert. Follow the toolholder manufacturer guidelines for coolant line positioning when operating with through-coolant setups.
