Tool-flo 593062RAC3R Grooving Insert Flr 3062 AC3 Carbide

Product Description

The TOOL-FLO 593062RAC3R is a carbide grooving insert in the Flo-Lock series, designed for precision grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It features an AlTiN coating applied via PVD process, which extends tool life when cutting abrasive workpiece materials. The insert is right-hand oriented with a neutral rake geometry, a 0.125-inch cutting width, and a full radius corner measuring 0.0620 inches. Maximum depth of cut reaches 0.1800 inches, making it well suited for moderate-depth grooving passes. Machinists and tool room technicians working in production or job shop environments are the primary installers of this insert.

This insert is intended for use on cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and stainless steel workpieces. The AlTiN PVD coating provides heat resistance and oxidation resistance, which is particularly useful when machining stainless steel and other work-hardening alloys without flood coolant. It fits Flo-Lock compatible grooving toolholders designed for the FLR-3062 insert style and seat geometry. It is a single-use, non-multi-use insert that should be indexed or replaced when cutting edge wear is detected.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tool room technicians on CNC or manual turning equipment. Power down and lock out the spindle before seating or removing inserts. Use the appropriate torque wrench and manufacturer-specified clamping hardware to secure the insert in the Flo-Lock toolholder seat. Inspect the seat pocket for chips or debris before installing a new insert to ensure proper seating and prevent premature edge failure.
