Sandvik Coromant 5736648 Grooving Insert Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5736648 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Part of the T-Max Q-Cut series, it carries insert style designation N151.2 and manufacturer grade 1125 with a PVD-applied TiAlN coating for heat and wear resistance. The cutting width is 0.185 inches (4.70 mm), the corner radius is 0.0224 inches (0.57 mm), and the insert features a neutral hand orientation with a 7-degree rake angle. It is suited for machinists and CNC operators working in metalworking, job shop, and production turning environments.

This insert is applied in external grooving, parting-off, and profiling operations on turning machines. The 4G chip breaker geometry helps manage chip flow during grooving cuts. The insert size designation is 40 with an ISO code of N151.2-A185-40-4G 1125, also listed in the manufacturer catalog as N151.2-A185-40-4G 1125. It is suited for both light and medium-duty grooving applications and is noted as a multi-use tool, allowing it to perform grooving and turning in a single setup where the toolholder permits.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or CNC operator. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing any insert. Use the correct torx or clamping key specified by the toolholder manufacturer to secure the insert at the recommended clamp torque listed in the toolholder documentation. Inspect the insert seat for chips or debris before installation to ensure proper seating and avoid premature insert failure.
