Sandvik Coromant 5753311 Grooving Insert TLGP3 2135 Carbide

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5753311 is a solid carbide grooving insert in the Top Lok series, designed for external grooving and parting operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It carries a multi-layer MT-CVD coating of TiCN, Al2O3, and TiN, which provides wear resistance and thermal stability during interrupted cuts and continuous grooving passes. The insert is right-hand oriented with a neutral rake angle of 10 degrees and a cutting width of 0.125 inches (3.17 mm). Maximum depth of cut reaches 0.150 inches (3.81 mm). This insert is installed by machinists and CNC operators in precision turning applications where consistent groove geometry and tool life are critical.

This insert is suited for grooving applications in both production and job-shop environments on CNC lathes equipped with Top Lok compatible toolholders. The TLGP-3 insert size and right-hand configuration make it appropriate for external grooving, recessing, and undercutting in ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials. The multi-layer coating supports use across a range of workpiece hardness levels and cutting conditions. The insert style is TLGP with ISO code TLGP-3125R 2135 and is listed as multi-use capable, allowing application across varied grooving tasks on a single setup.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed for use with Top Lok series toolholders accepting TLGP-3 insert style. ISO code TLGP-3125R 2135 identifies the exact seat geometry and grade. Verify toolholder insert seat size 3 compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC operators. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing the insert. Use the appropriate torx or clamping key specified for the Top Lok toolholder to secure the insert — do not overtighten by hand estimate alone; follow the toolholder manufacturer clamping procedure. Inspect the insert seat for chips or debris before seating to ensure proper contact and prevent premature insert failure.
