Ingersoll Cutting Tools 5523017 Turning Insert CCMT32.51MT

Product Description

The INGERSOLL CUTTING TOOLS 5523017 is a solid carbide turning insert designed for precision metalcutting on CNC lathes and turning centers. Cataloged under ANSI code CCMT32.51MT TT5080 and ISO code CCMT09T304MT TT5080, this insert features an 80-degree diamond shape with a 7-degree relief angle and a positive rake geometry. The TT5080 grade uses a PVD-applied AlTiN and TiN dual coating optimized for high-temperature cutting environments. With a 0.016-inch corner radius and a maximum depth of cut of 0.138 inches, it is suited for finishing and semi-finishing passes where tight tolerances and surface finish quality matter. Installation is performed by licensed machinists and CNC operators.

This insert is primarily targeted at applications involving stainless steel, super-alloys, and titanium workpiece materials, where heat resistance and edge toughness are critical. The MT chip breaker geometry controls chip flow effectively in these difficult-to-machine materials. The screw-held mounting method suits standard CCMT-style toolholders. Typical use cases include aerospace component turning, medical device machining, and industrial pump or valve component production where stainless and nickel-based alloys are common.

Key Features

• Solid carbide substrate with PVD-applied AlTiN and TiN coating for heat and wear resistance
• 80-degree diamond insert shape with 7-degree relief angle and positive rake for reduced cutting forces
• MT chip breaker geometry optimized for stainless steel, super-alloys, and titanium
• 0.016-inch corner radius for controlled surface finish on finishing and semi-finishing cuts
• Two cutting edges per insert for extended tooling economy
• Screw-held design compatible with standard CCMT-style toolholders

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for CCMT-series screw-on turning insert toolholders accepting a 3/8-inch inscribed circle insert in CCMT32.51 size code.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torque wrench and manufacturer-specified insert screw to seat the insert firmly in the pocket - do not overtighten by hand. Confirm insert seating and edge condition visually before resuming cutting operations.
