Iscar 5505715 Ccmt 432-SM IC907 Turning Insert 80 Diamond

Product Description

The ISCAR 5505715 is a CCMT 432-SM turning insert designed for precision lathe and turning center operations. It is manufactured from solid carbide with a TiAlN and TiN coating applied via a PVD coating process, delivering a wear-resistant cutting edge suited for interrupted and continuous cuts. The insert measures 12.9 mm in length with a 0.5-inch inscribed circle and a 1/32-inch corner radius. The 80-degree diamond shape and positive rake geometry promote efficient chip evacuation. An SM chip breaker is integrated into the geometry to control chip flow across a range of depths of cut up to 0.1378 inches. Licensed HVAC, machinist, and CNC technician personnel install this type of insert in screw-lock toolholders across production and job-shop environments.

This insert is suited for turning applications across a broad range of workpiece materials including steel, stainless steel, high-temperature alloys, and cast iron, corresponding to ISO material groups H, K, M, N, P, and S. The CCMT style and Isoturn series designation make it a direct fit for compatible screw-lock CCMT toolholders used in both roughing and finishing passes. It is particularly applicable in aerospace, energy, and general machining where consistent surface finish and dimensional accuracy are required on difficult-to-machine alloys.

Key Features

• Solid carbide substrate with PVD-applied TiAlN and TiN multilayer coating for extended tool life
• 80-degree diamond insert shape with positive rake for reduced cutting forces
• SM chip breaker geometry supports controlled chip formation across variable feed rates
• Screw-lock holding method provides secure, repeatable insert indexing
• Maximum depth of cut of 3.50 mm supports both finishing and light roughing passes
• Compliant with ISO 13399 for direct integration with tooling management software

Compatibility

Designed for use in CCMT-style screw-lock turning toolholders compatible with the ISCAR Isoturn series. Suitable for workpiece material groups H, K, M, N, P, and S per ISO classification. Material grades C7 and C8 apply.

Installation Notes

Insert installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician with the machine fully stopped and in a safe, locked-out state. Use the appropriate torx or hex key for the insert clamping screw, following the toolholder manufacturer torque guidance rather than improvising. Inspect the insert pocket and screw threads for damage or debris before seating the insert. Never run a cracked, chipped, or improperly seated insert, as insert failure at speed presents a serious safety hazard.
