Accupro 75560508 DCGT070201 Carbide Turning Insert

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 75560508 is a DCGT-style carbide turning insert designed for precision metal cutting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Carrying the ISO designation DCGT070201, this insert features a diamond (rhombic) 55-degree included angle with a 7-degree relief angle and a 0.10 mm (0.0039 inch) corner radius. The substrate is solid carbide with a PVD coating in the ACM15S grade, optimized for high wear-resistance to moderate wear-resistance and toughness. It is installed using a screw-type holding method and provides two cutting edges per insert. Machinists and CNC tooling specialists working on close-tolerance finishing and semi-finishing applications rely on this insert geometry.

This insert is suited for turning stainless steel (ISO material group M) and special and super alloys (ISO material group S). The LMF+ chip breaker geometry supports light to medium finishing cuts, making it a practical choice for components requiring tight surface finish tolerances. The positive side clearance and G tolerance code ensure accurate, repeatable seating in compatible DCGT toolholders. It is commonly used in aerospace, medical, and precision industrial machining environments where difficult-to-machine alloys are standard workpiece materials.

Key Features

• DCGT070201 ISO designation with 55-degree diamond insert shape for sharp, low-cutting-force geometry
• ACM15S PVD-coated carbide grade engineered for stainless steel and super alloy turning
• LMF+ chip breaker optimized for light to medium finishing cuts
• 7-degree relief angle with positive side clearance for reduced cutting forces
• 0.10 mm corner radius supports fine surface finish on tight-tolerance parts
• Two usable cutting edges per insert; neutral hand orientation

Compatibility

Designed for use in DCGT-style screw-clamp turning toolholders accepting a 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) inscribed circle insert with a 0.1126 inch hole diameter. Compatible workpiece materials include stainless steels (ISO group M) and special and super alloys (ISO group S).

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a CNC machinist or tooling setup technician using the appropriate Torx or hex key for the insert clamping screw. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Seat the insert fully into the pocket and verify there is no rocking before torquing the clamp screw. Do not exceed the maximum depth of cut of 1.35 mm (0.0531 inch) for this insert geometry.
