Sandvik Coromant 5752604 Turning Insert TCMT32.52-PM 5015

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5752604 is a solid carbide turning insert in the TCMT style, part of the CoroTurn 107 series. It features a 60-degree triangular shape with a 3/8 inch inscribed circle, a 1/32 inch corner radius, and an uncoated (bright) finish in manufacturer grade 5015. The insert is designed for positive-rake, screw-clamped toolholders and delivers reliable performance in external turning operations. With three cutting edges per insert, it provides an economical service life. The neutral hand orientation and PM chip breaker geometry make it well suited for a range of turning conditions in steel and cast iron applications.

This insert is primarily rated for steel (ISO material group P) and secondarily for cast iron (ISO material group K). It is intended for use in CNC and manual lathes in toolholders compatible with TCMT-style inserts. Typical applications include external turning, facing, and light profiling. The CoroTurn 107 series is a common platform used in production and job-shop environments where consistent chip control and insert indexability are required. Installation is performed by machining professionals in turning and metalworking operations.

Installation Notes

Turning insert replacement is performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the lathe spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the correct Torx or hex key specified by the toolholder manufacturer to seat the clamping screw — do not overtighten, as carbide inserts are brittle and can crack under excess clamp force. Verify insert seating and edge condition before resuming cuts.
