Sandvik Coromant 5737985 Grooving Insert Solid Carbide Tialn

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5737985 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, which provides wear resistance and thermal stability at elevated cutting speeds. The insert carries a neutral hand orientation and a 4G chip breaker geometry, with a cutting width of 0.11 inches and a corner radius of 0.013 inches. Machinists and tool crib technicians working in metal removal operations will find this insert suited to demanding production environments where consistent chip control is required.

This insert is intended for grooving and cutoff applications on metal workpieces using compatible T-Max Q-Cut toolholders. The N151.3 insert style and insert seat size 25 designation determine holder compatibility. It is applicable in both production shop and job shop settings where tight tolerances on groove width and depth are required. The neutral rake and 4G chip breaker geometry support stable cutting across a range of workpiece materials. ISO code N151.3-A110-25-4G 1125 and catalog number N151.3-A110-25-4G 1125 can be used to cross-reference compatible tooling systems.

Key Features

• Solid carbide substrate with grade 1125 for wear resistance in demanding cuts
• TiAlN PVD coating for thermal stability and extended tool life
• 4G chip breaker geometry promotes controlled chip evacuation
• Neutral insert hand suits a wide range of grooving setups
• 0.11 inch cutting width with 0.013 inch corner radius for tight-tolerance grooves
• Multi-use tool designation supports both grooving and parting applications

Compatibility

Compatible with T-Max Q-Cut toolholders accepting insert style N151.3 with insert seat size 25. ISO code N151.3-A110-25-4G 1125 identifies the exact toolholder interface. Verify holder seat size and clamping system before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine before seating or replacing the insert. Use the appropriate torque wrench for the clamping screw and follow the toolholder manufacturer's seating procedure to ensure proper insert location. Inspect the insert seat for chips or debris before installation, as contamination can affect insert position and cutting geometry.
