Sandvik Coromant 5736825 Grooving Insert 3mm Carbide Tialn

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5736825 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It carries a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process, which provides wear resistance and thermal stability during interrupted and continuous cuts. The insert delivers a 3 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 1.3 mm, making it suited to shallow grooving and parting applications where dimensional accuracy is critical. It belongs to the T-Max Q-Cut series, a system recognized in metalworking for secure clamping and repeatable insert indexing. Machinists and CNC operators working in job shops, production turning cells, and toolroom environments are the primary users.

This insert is applied in turning operations involving grooving, parting, and profiling on metallic workpieces. The neutral hand orientation supports straight plunge cuts. The 5P chip breaker geometry is suited for a range of work materials where chip control and surface finish consistency are priorities. The insert seat size 30 and ISO code N151.2-300-30-5P 1125 govern toolholder compatibility. Applications span general machining, aerospace component turning, and precision part production where tight groove tolerances are required.

Key Features

• Solid carbide substrate with PVD TiAlN coating for extended tool life
• 3 mm cutting width with 1.3 mm maximum depth of cut for controlled shallow grooving
• 5P chip breaker geometry for effective chip control during plunge grooving
• Neutral hand orientation supports direct plunge and straight parting cuts
• 1.5 mm corner radius promotes smooth groove profiles and reduces stress concentrations
• Part of the T-Max Q-Cut series for secure, repeatable toolholder engagement

Compatibility

Compatible with T-Max Q-Cut toolholders accepting insert seat size 30 per ISO code N151.2-300-30-5P 1125. Designed as a replacement insert for SANDVIK COROMANT T-Max Q-Cut grooving and parting systems. Verify toolholder seat size and clamping style before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified CNC machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key at the torque recommended by the toolholder manufacturer for the specific clamping screw. Inspect the insert pocket seat for debris or wear before seating a new insert, as contamination in the pocket affects insert stability and groove accuracy.
