Sandvik Coromant 5737038 Grooving Insert Corocut 1-2

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5737038 is a solid carbide grooving insert in the CoroCut 1-2 series, designed for external and internal grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It carries a multi-layer MT-CVD coating of TiCN, Al2O3, and TiN, which delivers wear resistance and thermal stability during continuous or interrupted cuts. The insert has a cutting width of 0.2362 inches (6.00 mm), a maximum depth of cut of 0.9055 inches, and a neutral hand orientation. Grade 2135 is optimized for steel and stainless steel applications where consistent tool life and surface finish are required. Machinists and CNC operators in production shops are the primary users.

This insert is suited for grooving, parting, and profiling operations in both light finishing and moderate material-removal passes. The TM chip breaker geometry promotes reliable chip control in medium-depth groove applications. With a cutting height of 0.1713 inches and a corner radius of 0.0315 inches (0.80 mm), it fits precision grooving work where accurate groove geometry and corner definition are critical. It is a multi-use insert compatible with CoroCut 1-2 toolholders that accept the K insert seat size.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified CNC machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the turret is de-energized before seating or removing inserts. Use the appropriate Torx or insert-clamping wrench specified for the CoroCut 1-2 holder to secure the insert without overtightening the clamping screw. Inspect the insert seat and clamping surfaces for chips or contamination before seating a new insert.
