Sandvik Coromant 5736701 Grooving Insert 6mm Corocut 1-2

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5736701 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision external and internal grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Carrying grade 1125 with a PVD-applied TiAlN coating, this insert delivers a neutral rake angle of 7 degrees and a 6 mm cutting width. It belongs to the CoroCut 1-2 series and is engineered for consistent chip control in demanding grooving applications. The GM chip breaker geometry manages chip evacuation effectively across a wide range of materials. Machinists and toolroom technicians working in production turning environments install this insert as a direct OEM-style replacement within compatible CoroCut 1-2 toolholders.

This insert is suited for grooving operations requiring a maximum depth of cut up to 22.70 mm on metalworking lathes. The neutral hand orientation makes it applicable in both right-hand and left-hand toolholder configurations. A corner radius of 0.40 mm reduces stress concentrations at the groove root and supports surface finish quality. The ISO code for this insert is N123K2-0600-0004-GM 1125. It is appropriate for job shop and production environments handling steel, stainless steel, and similar workpiece materials where a reliable, repeatable grooving geometry is required.

Compatibility

Designed for use with SANDVIK COROMANT CoroCut 1-2 series toolholders accepting insert seat size K. ISO code N123K2-0600-0004-GM 1125 identifies the exact insert geometry for toolholder and catalog cross-reference.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing inserts. Use the manufacturer-specified torx or clamp screw to secure the insert in the toolholder pocket — do not overtighten with non-rated tooling. Inspect the insert seat and clamping surfaces for debris or damage before installation to ensure correct seating and prevent premature edge failure.
