Accupro 75367490 DCMT32.52 Cvd Carbide Turning Insert

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 75367490 is a DCMT-style carbide turning insert designed for precision external and internal turning operations on CNC and manual lathes. It carries ANSI code DCMT32.52 and ISO code DCMT11T308, making it a direct match for tool holders specifying either standard. The insert is manufactured from cemented carbide with a CVD coating in grade ACP15K, providing high to moderate wear resistance combined with toughness across a range of workpiece materials. The 55-degree diamond (rhombic) insert shape delivers a sharp, well-supported cutting edge suited to finishing and semi-finishing passes. The chip breaker designation is WM+ and the insert has a neutral hand orientation with positive side clearance.

This insert is appropriate for turning steel, stainless steel, and cast iron in both production and job-shop environments. The ACP15K grade is rated for ISO material groups P (steel), M (stainless steel), and K (cast iron), covering high wear-resistance to moderate wear-resistance and toughness requirements in each group. It is typically installed on CNC turning centers and engine lathes by machinists and tool-and-die professionals. The maximum depth of cut is 3.00 mm (0.1181 inches), making it well suited for light to medium material removal. Two cutting edges are available per insert, extending usable tool life between changeovers.

Key Features

• ANSI code DCMT32.52 and ISO code DCMT11T308 for direct holder cross-reference
• CVD-coated carbide grade ACP15K for wear resistance across steel, stainless steel, and cast iron
• 55-degree diamond insert shape with 0.80 mm (0.0315 inch) corner radius for finishing and semi-finishing
• WM+ chip breaker geometry for controlled chip evacuation
• Two usable cutting edges per insert
• Screw-type insert holding method for positive clamping in compatible tool holders

Compatibility

Designed as a screw-clamped replacement turning insert for DCMT-style tool holders accepting ANSI code DCMT32.52 or ISO code DCMT11T308 inserts. Suited for machining steel (ISO P), stainless steel (ISO M), and cast iron (ISO K) workpieces.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate Torx or hex key as specified by the tool holder manufacturer when seating the clamping screw — do not overtighten, as this can fracture the carbide insert. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surface for chips or debris before seating a new edge.
