Sandvik Coromant 5736016 Grooving Insert Cbn Corocut 1-2

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5736016 is a cubic boron nitride (CBN) grooving insert designed for precision grooving operations in demanding machining environments. Running under the CoroCut 1-2 series platform, this insert carries manufacturer grade 7015 and features a neutral hand orientation for straight-in grooving applications. The cutting width measures 0.1181 inches (3.00 mm) with a cutting height of 0.1693 inches (4.30 mm). The uncoated, bright finish CBN substrate is produced via PVD coating process and delivers the hardness and thermal stability required when machining hardened steels, cast iron, and similar difficult-to-cut materials. Machinists and tooling specialists working in production turning environments are the primary installers of this insert.

This insert is suited for grooving operations on CNC turning centers and lathes where tight tolerances and consistent chip control are critical. The S-style chip breaker geometry assists in managing chip formation during interrupted or continuous grooving cuts. The insert size designation is G, with an ISO code of N123G1-030004S01025 7015 and a manufacturer catalog number matching the same designation. It is applicable in both roughing and finishing grooving scenarios where CBN grade tooling is specified. The neutral rake angle of 7 degrees supports stable cutting across a range of feed and depth-of-cut parameters.

Key Features

• 0.1181 inch (3.00 mm) cutting width for precise groove sizing
• Neutral hand orientation compatible with straight-in grooving tool holders
• S-style chip breaker for controlled chip formation
• Corner radius of 0.0157 inches (0.40 mm) for accurate groove corner geometry
• Multi-use capable insert within the CoroCut 1-2 platform

Compatibility

Designed for use with SANDVIK COROMANT CoroCut 1-2 series tool holders that accept insert seat size G. Verify holder compatibility using ISO code N123G1-030004S01025 7015 when selecting mating components.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician familiar with indexable insert tooling systems. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool holder is secured in the turret before seating or indexing the insert. Use the appropriate torx or clamping key specified by the tool holder manufacturer to achieve correct clamping force — do not overtighten or under-torque the clamping screw. Inspect the insert seat for chips or debris before installation to ensure proper seating and runout performance.
