Sandvik Coromant 5752177 Turning Insert Carbide 5/32 Inch Ic

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5752177 is a solid carbide turning insert designed for precision metal cutting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Manufactured to ISO code TCEX 06 T1 00R-F 1125, this insert features a 60-degree triangular shape with a 7-degree relief angle and an extremely tight 0.02 mm corner radius, making it suited for fine finishing passes and detailed contour turning. The TiAlN and AlCr2O3 dual-layer coating delivers thermal and wear resistance in demanding cutting conditions. The grade 1125 designation indicates a coated carbide formulation appropriate for a range of ferrous and non-ferrous turning applications. Installation requires a screw-type insert holding method.

This insert fits turning toolholders designed for TCEX-style inserts with a 5/32-inch (0.1563-inch decimal) inscribed circle. The X chipbreaker geometry is optimized for light to medium depth-of-cut finishing work where tight tolerances and surface finish are priorities. Typical use cases include external turning of steel, stainless steel, and similar materials on CNC turning equipment in production or job-shop environments. Machinists and CNC operators running small-diameter finishing passes will find the 0.02 mm corner radius and TCEX geometry particularly well matched to those demands.

Key Features

• 60-degree triangular insert shape with 7-degree relief angle for clearance on finish passes
• TiAlN and AlCr2O3 dual-layer coating for elevated thermal resistance and extended tool life
• Grade 1125 solid carbide substrate for consistent cutting performance
• 0.02 mm corner radius suited to fine finishing and tight-tolerance turning
• Screw-type insert holding method for secure, repeatable seating in compatible toolholders
• X chipbreaker geometry for effective chip control at lighter depths of cut

Compatibility

Designed for use in TCEX-style screw-on turning toolholders accepting a 5/32-inch inscribed circle insert with a 2.20 mm hole diameter. Verify toolholder insert pocket specifications against the ISO code TCEX 06 T1 00R-F before installation.

Installation Notes

Insert replacement should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician with the machine fully powered down and spindle motion confirmed stopped. Use the appropriate torque wrench and insert screw specified by the toolholder manufacturer — do not overtighten or substitute hardware. Ensure the insert pocket is clean and free of chips or debris before seating the insert to avoid micro-fracture from uneven clamping. Follow the toolholder manufacturer's clamping procedure and confirm runout after indexing or replacement.
