Sandvik Coromant 5723743 Turning Insert CCMT21.51-WF 5015

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5723743 is a solid carbide, uncoated turning insert in the CCMT21.51-WF 5015 designation, part of the CoroTurn 107 series. It features an 80-degree diamond insert shape with a neutral hand orientation and a wiper edge for improved surface finish on finish-turning applications. The insert holds a 1/64-inch corner radius (0.0156 inches) and a 1/4-inch inscribed circle (0.2500 inches). With 2 cutting edges and a screw-holding method, this insert is designed for CNC lathe and turning center operations performed by machinists and toolroom technicians working in production or job-shop environments.

This insert is suited for turning steel as its primary workpiece material, with cast iron as the secondary application. The WF chip breaker geometry is engineered for finishing and light finishing passes where controlled chip formation and a quality surface finish are the priority. It fits toolholders designed for the CCMT insert style within the CoroTurn 107 series. The ISO code for this insert is CCMT 06 02 04-WF 5015, which can be used to cross-reference compatible toolholder bores and clamping systems.

Key Features

• 80-degree diamond insert shape (Shape Code C) for versatile turning profiles
• WF chip breaker geometry optimized for finish turning on steel and cast iron
• Wiper edge for enhanced surface finish without reducing feed rate
• Solid carbide substrate, bright/uncoated finish - suited for applications where coating is not preferred
• Neutral hand orientation allows use in both left- and right-hand toolholders
• 2 cutting edges for cost-effective edge utilization per insert

Compatibility

Designed for use in CoroTurn 107 series toolholders accepting CCMT-style inserts with a screw-clamp holding method, compatible with toolholders specifying a 1/4-inch inscribed circle and CCMT insert geometry. ISO designation CCMT 06 02 04-WF 5015 should be used to verify toolholder compatibility.

Installation Notes

Insert installation and indexing should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician with the machine powered down and the spindle locked. Use the appropriate Torx or hex key to seat the clamping screw to the toolholder manufacturer's specification - do not overtighten. Inspect the insert pocket for wear or debris before seating the insert. Always verify insert orientation and hand before resuming machining operations.
