Accupro 75542514 Turning Insert DCMT32.52 Carbide Pvd

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 75542514 is a DCMT-style carbide turning insert designed for precision external turning operations on CNC and manual lathes. It features a 55-degree diamond (rhombic) insert shape, a PVD coating applied over a carbide substrate, and the ACM25P manufacturer grade. The chip breaker designation is WSF+, which supports chip control across a range of feed rates and depths. The corner radius measures 0.80 mm (0.0315 inches), and the maximum depth of cut is 2.25 mm (0.0886 inches). This insert is installed by machinists and toolroom professionals working in production or job-shop environments.

This insert is suited for turning steel (ISO material group P), stainless steel (ISO material group M), and special or super alloys (ISO material group S). The PVD coating delivers high wear resistance for steel applications and moderate wear resistance with toughness for stainless and superalloy cuts. The neutral hand orientation makes it compatible with standard screw-clamping toolholders. It is appropriate for both roughing and finishing passes within its rated depth-of-cut range, and is commonly used in aerospace, oil and gas, and general precision machining applications.

Key Features

• DCMT insert style with 55-degree diamond shape for access in tight profiling situations
• ACM25P carbide grade with PVD coating for wear resistance across P, M, and S workpiece materials
• WSF+ chip breaker geometry for consistent chip control in steel and stainless turning
• Neutral hand orientation compatible with standard screw-lock DCMT toolholders
• Positive side clearance (clearance code C) reduces cutting forces and edge rubbing
• Two cutting edges per insert for extended tool life per unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement insert for screw-clamping DCMT-style turning toolholders accepting ANSI insert code DCMT32.52 or ISO insert code DCMT11T308.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Before indexing or replacing the insert, power down the machine and confirm the spindle is fully stopped. Use the appropriate Torx or hex key to release the clamping screw, seat the insert fully into the pocket, and torque the screw according to the toolholder manufacturer specification. Inspect the insert seat for chips or debris before seating a new edge, as contamination in the pocket affects edge height and surface finish.
