Iscar 5504735 Wnmg 431-TF IC507 Carbide Turning Insert

Product Description

The ISCAR 5504735 is a WNMG 431-TF solid carbide turning insert in the IC507 manufacturer grade, designed for external and internal turning operations on a wide range of workpiece materials. The insert features a trigon (80-degree included angle) shape with a positive rake geometry and a TF chip breaker, making it well suited for finishing and light turning passes. Applied with a TiCN/TiN multilayer PVD coating, it delivers wear resistance and thermal stability at the cutting edge. Licensed machining professionals and CNC lathe operators install this insert into compatible WNMG-style toolholders as part of the ISCAR Isoturn series.

This insert is rated for universal primary workpiece material compatibility, covering ISO material groups H, M, P, and S — spanning cast iron, general steel, stainless, and high-temperature alloys. With an inscribed circle of 0.5 inches, an insert length of 8.70 mm (0.3425 inches), a thickness of 3/16 inches (0.1874 inches), and a corner radius of 1/64 inches (0.0157 inches), it fits standard WNMG 431 seat geometry. It is retained by clamp and pin holding methods and conforms to ISO 13399 tooling data standards.

Key Features

• Trigon insert shape (80-degree included angle, W shape code) for strong cutting edge geometry
• TiCN/TiN multilayer PVD coating for enhanced wear and edge line integrity
• TF chip breaker optimized for finishing and light turning applications
• Positive rake geometry reduces cutting forces on universal workpiece materials
• Submicron carbide grade substrate (IC507) for consistent edge sharpness
• Conforms to ISO 13399 tooling data standards for digital tool management

Compatibility

Designed for use in WNMG 431-style toolholders that accept clamp and pin insert retention, within the ISCAR Isoturn series. Compatible with ISO material groups H, M, P, and S workpiece materials.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Always index or replace inserts with the machine fully stopped and the spindle locked. Use the correct torque driver for the clamping screw to avoid seat damage — refer to the toolholder manufacturer's specification for fastener torque. Inspect the insert seat and chip pocket for debris before seating the insert to ensure proper contact and repeatable tool nose position.
