Iscar 5560575 DNMG331M3M IC6025 Turning Insert

Product Description

The ISCAR 5560575 is a DNMG331M3M turning insert in grade IC6025, designed for external and internal turning operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It is manufactured from solid carbide and coated via a CVD process with a TiCN, Al2O3, and TiN multilayer stack, which provides wear resistance and thermal stability at elevated cutting speeds. The insert features a 55-degree diamond shape, a positive rake geometry, and the M3M chip breaker, which is optimized for controlled chip formation in moderate to interrupted cutting conditions. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install these inserts as part of a standard indexable tooling setup.

This insert is part of the ISCAR Isoturn series and is suited for turning stainless steel and other ISO M-group workpiece materials. The M3M chip breaker geometry handles moderate feed rates and medium depths of cut, making it appropriate for general-purpose finishing and semi-finishing passes. It is used in production and job-shop environments where consistent tool life and chip control are priorities on difficult-to-machine alloys.

Key Features

• IC6025 grade solid carbide with CVD-applied TiCN, Al2O3, and TiN multilayer coating for extended tool life
• 55-degree diamond insert shape (DNMG) with positive rake for reduced cutting forces
• M3M chip breaker optimized for ISO M-group stainless and austenitic materials
• Maximum depth of cut of 3.50 mm (0.1378 inches) supports medium-duty turning passes
• Compatible with clamp and pin insert holding methods for secure seating in the toolholder
• Meets ISO 13399 tooling data standards for interoperability with CAM and tool management systems

Compatibility

Designed for use in DNMG-style indexable turning toolholders that accept a 3/8-inch inscribed circle insert with a clamp or pin holding method. Consult toolholder documentation to confirm seat geometry and clamping configuration before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC setup technicians. Power down and lock out the machine before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torque wrench and clamping screw specified by the toolholder manufacturer - do not overtighten the clamp screw, as this can fracture the insert or damage the seat. Inspect the toolholder pocket and seating surfaces for chips or debris before seating a new insert.
