Sandvik Coromant 5752495 Turning Insert 3/8 Ic Carbide

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5752495 is a solid carbide, uncoated turning insert in the TCGX style, part of the CoroTurn 107 series. It features a 60-degree triangular shape with a 3/8 inch inscribed circle and a 1/64 inch (0.0156 inch) corner radius. The insert is designed for precision external turning operations and delivers consistent performance on non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium. With a neutral hand orientation and a bright uncoated finish (grade H10), it is suited for light finishing cuts where edge sharpness and low cutting forces are critical. Licensed machinists and CNC lathe operators are the primary installers of this insert type.

This insert is primarily intended for machining non-ferrous metals such as aluminum and copper alloys, with secondary application in superalloy and titanium workpieces. The CoroTurn 107 series is optimized for light to medium finishing passes in external turning operations. The AL chip breaker geometry supports efficient chip control in soft, gummy materials that tend to produce long, stringy chips. This insert is well suited for CNC turning centers in both production and job-shop environments where surface finish and dimensional accuracy are priorities.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction with bright uncoated finish, grade H10, for sharp edge retention on non-ferrous materials
• TCGX insert style with 7-degree relief angle and clearance code C for positive rake cutting geometry
• 60-degree triangular shape provides 3 usable cutting edges per insert
• AL chip breaker geometry engineered for non-ferrous and superalloy workpiece materials
• Screw-held insert design ensures repeatable seating and secure clamping in compatible toolholders
• Neutral hand orientation fits left-hand, right-hand, and straight toolholder configurations

Compatibility

Designed for use in CoroTurn 107 series toolholders that accept TCGX-style inserts with a 3/8 inch inscribed circle. ISO code designation is TCGX 16 T3 04-AL H10. Verify toolholder seat and screw size before installation.

Installation Notes

Insert replacement is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Seat the insert fully against the toolholder pocket and tighten the clamping screw to the toolholder manufacturer's specified torque. Inspect the insert pocket for wear or debris before each insert change to maintain consistent tool runout and surface finish quality.
