Tool-flo 593062RJ5R Grooving Insert GP3 Solid Carbide Tin

Product Description

The TOOL-FLO 593062RJ5R is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Manufactured in the GP3 micrograin grade with a PVD-applied TiN coating, this right-hand insert delivers consistent cutting performance and extended tool life. The full-radius geometry provides a 3.18 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 4.57 mm, making it well suited for medium-depth grooving applications. It belongs to the Flo-Lock series and is installed by machinists and tool-and-die professionals in production turning environments.

This insert is intended for right-hand grooving operations on turning centers running steel, stainless steel, and similar materials. The positive rake angle and 55-degree rake geometry support efficient chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces. With a gage diameter of 0.375 inches and an insert size code of 3062, this insert fits Flo-Lock series toolholders configured for FLR-style inserts. It is a single-use, non-multi-use insert intended for precision repetitive grooving in production or job-shop environments.

• 3.18 mm cutting width with maximum depth of cut range of 4.00 to 5.00 mm
• Positive rake at 55-degree rake angle reduces cutting forces on the workpiece
• Right-hand orientation for standard OD grooving on conventional turning setups

Compatibility

Designed for use with Flo-Lock series toolholders accepting FLR-style inserts with an insert size code of 3062. ISO code FLR-3062R. Compatible with secondary workpiece material stainless steel as noted in manufacturer specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation and indexing should be performed by a qualified machinist with the machine in a full stop and all power isolated. Use the correct torque wrench and seating tool specified for Flo-Lock insert pockets to avoid damaging the carbide or seating surface. Verify insert orientation matches the toolholder hand before engaging the clamping screw. Inspect the insert pocket for chips or debris before seating a new insert.
