Sandvik Coromant 5736840 Grooving Insert Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5736840 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, this insert carries manufacturer grade 1125 with a PVD-applied TiAlN coating that supports extended tool life in demanding cutting conditions. It delivers a cutting width of 0.1181 inches (3.00 mm) and a cutting height of 0.2672 inches (6.78 mm). The neutral hand orientation and 7-degree rake angle make it suitable for a broad range of workpiece materials. Machinists and CNC operators in production turning environments are the primary installers.

This insert is suited for grooving and parting-off operations in both high-volume production and job-shop environments. The 5G chip breaker geometry promotes controlled chip formation during shallow to medium-depth grooves. The ISO code N151.2-300-30-5G 1125 identifies the exact insert style and seat size for toolholder matching. It is a multi-use insert, making it applicable across various groove profiles where a 0.1181-inch cutting width is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. The machine spindle must be stopped and locked out before changing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key as specified by the toolholder manufacturer to seat and torque the insert clamp. Inspect the insert pocket for debris or damage before seating the new insert to ensure proper clamping and runout.
