HGAIR/L and HFAIR/L Face Grooving Adapters

January 01, 2014

ISCAR is further extending the application range of the current HGAIR/L and HFAIR/L face grooving adapters. This range applies to both diameters and grooving depths of 3 to 6mm inserts.

The new adapters were designed mainly to cover the larger diameters and deeper grooving range which was not covered by the currently available tools. They should be applied on larger parts such as pump hubs, hydraulic parts, turbine parts, engine pistons, etc.
