The Z-Grooving DV-Lock Insert is a precision cutting tool designed for grooving, parting-off, and profile turning operations. Utilizing advanced clamping technology, this insert ensures high rigidity and stability during machining, resulting in superior surface finishes and dimensional accuracy.

Integral PCBN (Polycrystalline Cubic Boron Nitride) standard inserts are one-piece solid PCBN cutting tools—the entire insert is made from PCBN rather than having only a brazed PCBN tip. This monolithic design delivers maximum hardness and thermal stability for continuous or interrupted machining of hardened steels, chilled cast iron, powder metals, and other wear-resistant alloys. Because there is no carbide substrate, the insert offers uniform PCBN properties throughout, making it ideal for aggressive cutting conditions, long production runs, and tight tolerance finishing.
