Iscar 5606038 Milling Insert T290 Lnmt 100405TR IC830

Product Description

The ISCAR 5606038 is a solid carbide milling insert designed for high-performance metal cutting in demanding machining applications. It carries the ANSI designation T290 LNMT 100405TR IC830 and belongs to the SUMOMILL series. The insert features an AlTiN and TiN dual coating applied via PVD process under the Sumotec classification, which improves wear resistance and thermal stability at the cutting edge. Geometry is negative rake with a T-Land cutting edge style and a 90-degree included angle. The corner radius measures 0.0197 inches (0.50 mm). This is a double-sided insert with 2 cutting edges per insert, making it suitable for extended service intervals in production milling environments. Installation is performed by machinists and CNC tooling specialists.

This insert is intended for milling steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium workpieces, corresponding to ISO material codes P, M, and S. The TR chip breaker geometry supports effective chip control across these material groups. It is compatible with T290 series milling cutter bodies and is held in place by a screw. Typical applications include face milling, shoulder milling, and high-feed operations on CNC machining centers where consistent edge performance across difficult-to-machine alloys is required. The right-hand insert orientation suits standard toolholder configurations for these cutter bodies.

Installation Notes

This insert is installed and replaced by machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Use the correct torx or hex key to the cutter body manufacturer torque specification for the screw-held pocket. Inspect the insert pocket seat and clamping screw for damage before seating a new insert to ensure proper edge registration and prevent premature failure.
