Sandvik Coromant 5740371 Square-shoulder Face Mill 1 in

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5740371 is an indexable square-shoulder face mill designed for precision milling operations requiring a 90-degree lead angle. With a maximum cutting diameter of 1 inch, this tool accepts replaceable inserts secured by a clamp and screw holding method, allowing fast insert changes without removing the body from the spindle. It is suited for machinists and tool-and-die professionals working on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills where true 90-degree shoulder profiles are required. The square-shoulder geometry produces clean vertical walls and flat floors in a single pass, reducing secondary operations.

This face mill is used in metalworking applications where a precise 90-degree shoulder is required on workpiece features such as steps, slots, and pockets. The 1-inch cutting diameter makes it appropriate for smaller spindle machines and tight-clearance fixturing setups common in precision job shops, aerospace component work, and mold-and-die environments. It is installed and operated by skilled machinists and CNC operators following standard tool-assembly procedures for indexable milling cutters.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer's spindle interface and torque procedures. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before mounting or removing the cutter body or changing inserts. Use the correct torque wrench and insert screw key supplied or specified by the manufacturer to seat clamp screws. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surfaces for chips or damage before each insert change.
