Pafana NNGD 2020 S20 NOZ TOK.ISO 13 R — cutting insert ISO13R, right-hand

Pafana NNGD 2020 S20 NOZ TOK.ISO 13 R is a right-hand cutting insert in ISO13R format designed for turning and grooving operations. The insert fits S20-style seats in compatible toolholders and is intended for machining tasks where precise chip control and reliable repeatability of insert positioning are required. It is suitable for use in production and maintenance environments that demand consistent performance on a range of metal materials.

Advantages

The insert provides stable cutting geometry and repeatable seating to maintain dimensional accuracy across multiple tool changes. Its right-hand ISO13R format ensures correct orientation for right-hand turning and grooving applications, and the design supports controlled chip evacuation to reduce built-up edge and improve surface finish. The construction is intended for compatibility with standard S20-style toolholders, enabling quick replacement and minimizing downtime.

Suitable for

• Right-hand turning on lathes and turning centers
• Grooving operations with ISO13R-style inserts
• Production machining where repeatable insert positioning is required
• Maintenance and repair tasks involving metal components

Key specifications

• Insert form: ISO13R (right-hand)
• Seat style compatibility: S20-style toolholder seats
• Primary use: turning and grooving
• Chip control: designed for precise chip formation and evacuation
• Mounting: indexable insert for repeatable positioning in compatible holders

How to use

Install the Pafana ISO13R insert into a compatible S20-style toolholder, ensuring the insert is seated firmly and oriented for right-hand operations. Tighten the clamping mechanism according to the toolholder manufacturer's torque recommendations to secure repeatable positioning. Select appropriate cutting parameters — spindle speed, feed, and depth of cut — based on the workpiece material and toolholder rigidity. Monitor chip formation and surface finish during initial passes and adjust speeds or feeds as needed to optimize tool life and machining quality.

Usage recommendations

Use coolant or appropriate cutting fluid for materials that benefit from lubrication and cooling to extend insert life. Inspect seat and clamping surfaces before installation to ensure clean, undamaged contact for accurate repeatability. Replace the insert at the first signs of excessive wear, chipping, or loss of dimensional control to maintain machining accuracy.
