Sandvik Coromant 5737111 Grooving Insert Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5737111 is a solid carbide grooving insert in the T-Max Q-Cut series, designed for precision parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Carrying ISO code N151.2-A250-60-6G 235 and chip breaker designation 6G, this insert features a 0.25 inch cutting width and a neutral hand orientation. The TiCN/TiN coating is applied via CVD process, delivering improved wear resistance and extended tool life in demanding turning applications. It suits machinists and tool-room professionals working in production environments where consistent groove geometry and surface finish are required.

This insert is suited for grooving and parting operations on a range of workpiece materials where a neutral rake and 7-degree rake angle provide balanced cutting action. The 6G chip breaker geometry supports chip control across varying feed rates and depths of cut. With an insert seat size of 60 and an insert size designation of 60, it is paired with compatible T-Max Q-Cut toolholders designed for that seat specification. The multi-use capability allows the insert to serve both grooving and related profiling tasks in a single setup, reducing tool change frequency in production turning.

Key Features

• Solid carbide substrate with CVD-applied TiCN/TiN coating for wear resistance
• 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) cutting width with 6G chip breaker geometry
• Neutral hand and neutral rake orientation for flexible setup
• Corner radius of 0.031 inch (0.79 mm) for controlled groove profile
• Manufacturer grade 235 optimized for consistent performance in the T-Max Q-Cut system
• Multi-use insert suitable for grooving and profiling in a single holder

Compatibility

Designed for use with SANDVIK COROMANT T-Max Q-Cut toolholders accepting insert seat size 60 and insert size 60. ISO code N151.2-A250-60-6G 235 and catalog number N151.2-A250-60-6G 235 identify the exact holder and seat pairing required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician with the machine spindle fully stopped and the machine control in an e-stop or locked-out state per your facility lockout/tagout procedure. Seat the insert fully against the pocket locating surfaces before torquing the clamping screw; refer to the toolholder manufacturer documentation for the correct torque specification. Inspect the insert seat and clamping components for chips or debris before seating a new insert to ensure accurate location and prevent premature edge failure.
