Sandvik Coromant 5737998 Grooving Insert Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5737998 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision external grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It carries grade 2135 carbide with a multilayer MT-CVD coating of TiCN, Al2O3, and TiN, which provides wear resistance and thermal stability during continuous and interrupted cuts. The insert has a neutral hand orientation, a 0.1181 inch (3.00 mm) cutting width, and an 11-degree rake angle. It belongs to the T-Max Q-Cut series and uses the 7G chip breaker geometry. Machinists and CNC turning specialists install this insert in compatible quick-change toolholders for grooving steel, stainless, and other ferrous workpiece materials.

This insert is suited for use in production turning environments, including job shops and manufacturing facilities running batch or high-volume grooving work. The 7G chip breaker supports controlled chip formation across a range of depths and feeds. With an insert size of 25 and ISO code N151.3-300-25-7G 2135, it fits into T-Max Q-Cut system toolholders designed around that seat size. It is a multi-use insert, meaning a single insert can be indexed or repositioned as the cutting edges wear. The minimum order quantity for this insert is 10 pieces per order.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key to seat and torque the clamping screw per toolholder manufacturer guidelines. Inspect the insert seat and clamp for debris or wear before seating a new insert to ensure proper support and edge security.
