Insert tooling replacement tips

[Gavlar]

I've got an Iscar parting tool that uses DGR 3102J 6D inserts. I'm down to my last couple of inserts and the price for new ones is circa £20 each! There are ebay sellers doing selling packs at way under that, (still £6 each) but I've no idea if these are legitimate Iscar tooling. Does anyone know if an equivelant exists and if so where to get it, please?

Is this for production use or home use ? Doubt that they would be OEM but at a third of the price got to be worth a shot even if they last half as long .

Ive got a lot of Iscar tooling running cheap inserts and had no issues so far but I cant justify 6x £20 inserts for one tool for home use , if I was doing it for profit i would factor that into the price of finished component

One of my favorite subjects. The ebay sellers are often selling bankrupt or closing down stock at much reduced prices, Iscar are one of my preferred makes as their stuff is always top quality and lasts. I have bought Iscar tips and tooling at one tenth of it's retail from ebay and it has always been genuine. The type of tip you are looking at though is common enough and if you just want a generic replacement you could do much worse than going here: https://www.shop-apt.co.uk give them a call as their technical helpdesk is manned by a guy who really knows his stuff OR drop Jenny a line at https://jbcuttingtools.com she has an encyclopedic knowledge of inserts and tooling all at realistic prices, I often buy from her as she buys up massive stocks.

Thank you. Those generic ones look to be the same but if no-one has had issues with fakes ones on ebay, I'll get some from there.
