Iscar’s Deca IQ Thread is a 5/8" round insert with five double-sided corners, providing 10 functional cutting edges. The line is designed to boost production, raise quality and reduce costs.

The insert features a positive, free-cutting geometry and is designed to promote accurate edge location and repeatability after corner indexing. The IC908-grade insert can be used in a variety of materials. The toolholders feature coolant channels designed for use with conventional and high-pressure coolant ability.

The coolant channels of the tools feature outlets that are close to the cutting edge, enabling shorter machining time, longer tool life, improved chip control, effective cooling-down of the cutting edge and a more stable process, the company says.

Toolholders are available in a variety of sizes ranging from 0.5" to 1" (12 to 25 mm) to accommodate standard CNC machines as well as the Swiss industry. The front edge of the insert is parallel to the front edge of the toolholder, making it well suited for Swiss machining. According to the company, this enables the threading operation to get closer to the guide bushing, resulting in less vibration and better finishes. The smaller toolholders are also ported in three different locations to accommodate various coolant connections.
