Sandvik Coromant 5736757 Grooving Insert Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5736757 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It belongs to the T-Max Q-Cut series, insert style N151.2, and carries manufacturer grade 1125 with a PVD-applied TiAlN coating for extended tool life in demanding cutting conditions. The cutting width measures 0.1575 inches (4.00 mm) with a corner radius of 0.0157 inches (0.40 mm). The neutral hand orientation and 7-degree rake angle make it suitable for a wide range of workpiece materials and grooving geometries. The 5T chip breaker geometry promotes reliable chip control during interrupted and continuous cuts.

This insert is used in external grooving, parting, and profiling applications on turning machines in both production and job-shop environments. It fits toolholders compatible with insert seat size 40 and matches the ISO catalog designation N151.2-4004-40-5T 1125. Typical users include CNC machinists and toolroom technicians working with steel, stainless, and similar materials where a PVD TiAlN-coated carbide grade is appropriate. The multi-use designation indicates the insert is suitable across multiple grooving applications without requiring a dedicated single-purpose holder setup.

Installation Notes

Insert installation and indexing should be performed by a qualified CNC machinist or toolroom technician. Power down the machine and lock out all motion axes before handling inserts or adjusting the toolholder. Use the appropriate insert-clamping key or torx driver specified by the toolholder manufacturer - do not substitute hardware. Verify insert seating and clamp torque visually before resuming cutting operations.
