Sandvik Coromant 5737448 Grooving Insert T-max Q-cut

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5737448 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 neutral-hand insert features a 4 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 1.70 mm, making it well-suited for shallow grooving and parting applications where tight dimensional control is required. The insert carries a TiAlN coating applied by PVD process, which provides thermal resistance and wear protection during high-speed cuts. A 2.00 mm corner radius and a positive rake geometry help reduce cutting forces and promote smooth chip flow. Machinists and CNC operators working in production environments will find this insert compatible with the N151.2 toolholder system.

This insert is intended for grooving and parting applications in industrial machining environments, including aerospace, automotive, and general metalworking shops. Its neutral hand orientation allows flexible mounting configurations. The ISO code N151.2-400-40-4P 1125 and chip breaker designation 4P identify this as a purpose-built insert for controlled chip management in moderate-depth groove profiles. It is sold individually (package quantity of 1) but carries a minimum order quantity of 10 units per order.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction with PVD-applied TiAlN coating for wear and heat resistance
• 4 mm cutting width with a maximum depth of cut of 1.70 mm
• 2.00 mm corner radius for contour blending and reduced edge chipping
• Positive rake geometry reduces cutting forces and aids chip evacuation
• 4P chip breaker promotes reliable chip control in shallow grooving passes
• Multi-use capable insert within the T-Max Q-Cut N151.2 system

Compatibility

Designed for use with SANDVIK COROMANT T-Max Q-Cut toolholders and blade systems accepting insert seat size 40 and the N151.2 insert style. ISO code N151.2-400-40-4P 1125 identifies the correct toolholder pairing. Verify seat size and insert style against your toolholder documentation before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified CNC machinists or tool-room technicians. The machine spindle must be stopped and all motion arrested before seating or removing the insert. Use the appropriate torx or hex key as specified by the toolholder manufacturer to secure the insert clamp to the correct torque range listed in the toolholder documentation. Inspect the insert pocket for chips or debris before seating to ensure proper contact and runout performance.
