Description

The Carmex Small Indexable Carbide Grooving Insert (T8) is designed for precise groove cutting in demanding metals. With a 9.4 mm minimum bore and a 1.7 mm width, it combines a tough carbide substrate with a BLU PVD triple-layer coating for reliable wear resistance across stainless steels, cast iron, titanium, non-ferrous metals, and most high-temperature alloys.

  • Insert Type: Small indexable carbide grooving insert (T8 seating) engineered for groove-cutting operations.
  • Min Bore Diameter: 9.4 mm (0.37 in) to ensure secure mounting on compatible tools.
  • Width: 1.7 mm thick profile for precise groove spacing and stable cutting.
  • Material & Coating: Carbide substrate with BLU PVD triple-layer coating for enhanced wear resistance and heat protection.
  • Material Compatibility: Suitable for stainless steels, cast iron, titanium, non-ferrous metals, and most high-temperature alloys (M10–M20, K05–K20, N10–N20, S10–S20).

The insert’s robust design and BLU PVD coating deliver durable edge retention and consistent groove geometry, even under demanding cutting conditions. Its compact 1.7 mm width enables precise groove width control, while the indexable format allows swift reindexing to minimize downtime and maintain high-quality finishes across diverse metal workpieces.
