Sandvik Coromant 5730602 Turning Insert 55 Diamond 3/8 Ic

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5730602 is a DCGT-style solid carbide turning insert designed for precision external turning operations. It features a 55-degree diamond shape with a 7-degree relief angle and a 1/32 inch (0.0313 inch) corner radius. The insert carries a TiAlN and AlCr2O3 PVD coating in grade 1125, engineered for wear resistance and thermal stability at the cutting edge. Part of the CoroTurn 107 series, this insert uses a screw-holding method and delivers two cutting edges per insert. It is used by machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop turning environments.

This insert is suited for turning steel as its primary workpiece material, with additional capability across stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium. The UM chip breaker geometry is designed for finishing and light roughing passes where chip control and surface finish are priorities. The neutral hand orientation makes it compatible with standard DCGT toolholders. ISO designation for this insert is DCGT 11 T3 08-UM 1125, which can be used for cross-referencing with compatible toolholder systems.

Compatibility

Designed for use in CoroTurn 107 series DCGT screw-clamp toolholders. Compatible workpiece materials include steel, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium. ISO insert designation DCGT 11 T3 08-UM 1125 may be used to verify toolholder compatibility.

Installation Notes

Insert replacement should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC technician with the machine powered down and the spindle locked. Use the appropriate Torx or hex key as specified by the toolholder manufacturer when seating the clamping screw. Inspect the insert pocket and screw for wear or debris before indexing to a fresh cutting edge. Do not exceed the toolholder's rated cutting parameters for this insert geometry.
