Kennametal 1310705 Turning Insert DPGT32505LF KC5010

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1310705 is a solid carbide turning insert with ANSI designation DPGT32505LF and manufacturer grade KC5010. It carries a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process, delivering high wear resistance across a range of workpiece materials. The insert features a 55-degree diamond (rhombic) shape, a positive rake angle of 5 degrees, and an 11-degree relief angle. The corner radius measures 0.0079 inches and the inscribed circle diameter is 0.375 inches. The LF chip breaker geometry is optimized for finishing and light machining operations. This insert is installed by machinists and CNC turning specialists in production and job-shop environments.

This insert is suited for turning, facing, boring, back turning, and back boring operations on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium workpieces. The KC5010 grade targets applications demanding high to moderate wear resistance with adequate toughness, making it a productive choice for both continuous and mildly interrupted cuts in P, M, K, N, and S material groups. It is packaged individually and sold in multiples of 5.

Compatibility

Designed for use in screw-on style toolholders accepting DPGT-geometry inserts per ANSI designation DPGT32505 and ISO designation DPGT11T302. Compatible with toolholders specified for P, M, K, N, and S primary workpiece material codes.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC setup technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key to torque the clamping screw; refer to the toolholder manufacturer's specification for the correct fastener torque. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surface for chips or debris before seating the new insert to ensure accurate positioning and prevent premature edge failure.
