Sandvik Coromant 5737618 Grooving Insert 5mm Tialn Carbide

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5737618 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, it features a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process, delivering hardness and heat resistance suited to high-speed cutting conditions. The insert carries manufacturer grade 1125 and is configured in a neutral hand orientation with a 5 mm cutting width and a maximum depth of cut of 2.3 mm. Machinists and CNC operators working in production environments install this insert into compatible T-Max Q-Cut toolholders for grooving, parting, and turn-grooving applications on a range of workpiece materials.

This insert is used in metalworking applications where controlled groove width and clean sidewall finish are required. The 5T chip breaker geometry and 7-degree rake angle are suited to moderate feed rates and general-purpose grooving on steel and similar materials. It fits production shops, job shops, and maintenance facilities running turning operations that demand repeatable insert performance. The neutral hand configuration makes it usable in standard radial grooving setups without orientation-specific tooling constraints.

Key Features

• 5 mm cutting width with maximum depth of cut of 2.3 mm for controlled groove profiling
• TiAlN coating via PVD process for elevated heat resistance and extended tool life
• Manufacturer grade 1125 solid carbide substrate for rigidity and wear resistance
• 5T chip breaker with 7-degree rake angle for chip control at moderate feeds
• Neutral hand orientation compatible with standard radial grooving setups
• ISO code N151.2-5004-50-5T 1125 for cross-reference with SANDVIK COROMANT tooling systems

Compatibility

Designed for use with SANDVIK COROMANT T-Max Q-Cut series toolholders that accept the N151.2 insert style and 5 mm cutting width. ISO designation N151.2-5004-50-5T 1125 can be used to confirm holder compatibility in SANDVIK COROMANT tooling catalogs.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. The machine spindle must be fully stopped and the turret locked out before seating or removing inserts. Use the correct insert seating torque for the specific T-Max Q-Cut toolholder per the toolholder manufacturer documentation. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for debris or wear before installing a new insert to ensure proper seating and prevent premature edge failure.
