Sandvik Coromant 5738352 Cutoff Insert Solid Carbide 5mm

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5738352 is a solid carbide cutoff insert designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It carries the manufacturer designation N151.2-500-4E H13A and belongs to the T-Max Q-Cut series. The insert features a 5.00 mm cutting width, a neutral lead angle, a 7-degree relief angle, and a 0.40 mm corner radius. The H13A grade is an uncoated, bright-finish carbide suited for machining a range of workpiece materials where a sharp, uncoated edge is preferred. This insert is installed by machinists and CNC operators working in production and job-shop turning environments.

This insert is applied in parting and grooving applications on turning machines equipped with T-Max Q-Cut compatible toolholders. The N151.2 insert style with a 50 seat size is used in both light and medium-duty cutoff work. The 4E chipbreaker geometry supports chip control during cutoff operations. Typical users include machinists running production turning cells and tool-and-die shops requiring precise, repeatable parting cuts. The insert is secured by a clamp-style holding method, which is standard for this toolholder series.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction, H13A grade, uncoated bright finish for sharp cutting performance

Compatibility

Designed for use with T-Max Q-Cut series toolholders that accept the N151.2 insert style with a 50 insert seat size and clamp-style holding. Verify toolholder seat size and clamping method before ordering.

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 torque wrench on the clamping screw to avoid seat damage — follow the toolholder manufacturer torque specification printed on the holder body or its documentation. Inspect the insert pocket and clamp for wear or damage before seating a new insert.
