Value Collection TCN35410A Grooving Insert TCN55 Carbide

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION TCN35410A is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision external and internal grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. This insert carries a TNMA32 style profile with a TCN55 manufacturer grade and a neutral rake geometry. The cutting width measures 0.0625 inches (1/16 inch), and the maximum depth of cut reaches 0.151 inches. Material grade is C5, positioning it for general-purpose steel and cast iron turning applications. Each insert is sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 10 units. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install this insert into compatible TNMA-style grooving toolholders.

This insert is suited for grooving, parting, and profiling operations on lathes and turning centers in both production and jobshop environments. The right-hand orientation and TNMA32 insert size fit standard TNMA-compatible toolholding systems. It is appropriate for use on ferrous materials within the C5 material grade range, including carbon steels and alloy steels. The inscribed circle measures 3/8 inch. This insert is a single-use, non-multi-use tooling component intended for replacement upon wear rather than regrinding.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction with TCN55 manufacturer grade for wear resistance
• 0.0625 inch (1/16 inch) cutting width for precise groove dimensioning
• Maximum depth of cut of 0.151 inches, within a range of 0.150 to 0.200 inches
• Neutral rake geometry for balanced cutting forces
• Right-hand insert orientation for standard lathe setups
• C5 material grade suitable for general-purpose ferrous machining

Compatibility

Designed for use in TNMA32-style grooving toolholders compatible with inserts of the TNMA profile and 3/8 inch inscribed circle diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or CNC operator following standard insert-change procedures. The machine spindle must be fully stopped and the toolholder secured before seating or removing the insert. Use the appropriate insert-seating tool or torque wrench per the toolholder manufacturer specifications. Inspect the insert pocket for chips or debris before installation to ensure proper seating and accurate cutting geometry.
