Sandvik Coromant 5722999 Turning Insert Carbide Coroturn 107

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5722999 is a solid carbide turning insert designed for precision metal cutting in CNC lathe and turning center applications. Manufactured to CCGT insert style with an 80-degree diamond shape, this uncoated (bright finish) insert features a 3/8-inch inscribed circle, a 1/64-inch corner radius, and a UM chip breaker geometry. It operates with a 7-degree relief angle and a neutral hand orientation, making it suitable for both OD turning and light finishing passes. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install this insert as part of the CoroTurn 107 series tooling system, which uses a screw-clamping holding method for secure, repeatable seating.

This insert is rated for primary use on steel workpieces (ISO material code P) and secondary use on cast iron (ISO material code K). It is well suited for finishing operations where tight tolerances and a quality surface finish are required. The UM chip breaker geometry is optimized for light to medium cuts, making this insert a practical choice for production turning of ferrous materials in both job shop and high-volume manufacturing environments.

Installation Notes

Insert installation and indexing should be performed by a qualified CNC machinist or toolroom technician. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Use the appropriate Torx or hex key as specified by the toolholder manufacturer to seat the clamping screw to the correct retention without over-torquing. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or debris before seating a new insert.
