Value Collection ICT35710D Grooving Insert TNMC32 I55 Carbide

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION ICT35710D is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision turning and grooving operations on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. Carrying the TNMC32 insert style with an I55 manufacturer grade, this right-hand insert delivers a 0.0625 inch cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 0.151 inches. Carbide construction provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for consistent performance across a range of workpiece materials. This insert is sold individually and is subject to a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

This grooving insert is suited for external and internal grooving applications where tight width tolerances are required. The TNMC32 geometry is commonly used in production turning environments where repeatability and insert indexability matter. With a material grade rating of C5 and C6, it is appropriate for machining cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and general-purpose steel at moderate cutting parameters. Machinists and CNC operators in job shops and production facilities will find this insert applicable to a range of light-to-medium grooving tasks.

Compatibility

Designed for use in toolholders compatible with TNMC32-style grooving inserts. Verify toolholder seat geometry, insert size 32, and right-hand orientation before installation.

Installation Notes

Grooving inserts are installed and replaced by machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Always power down and lock out the machine before changing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key to secure the insert clamp to the manufacturer-specified seating torque noted in the toolholder documentation. Inspect the insert seat and clamp for wear or debris before seating a new insert to ensure proper contact and edge presentation.
