Sandvik Coromant 5753458 Grooving Insert Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5753458 is a solid carbide grooving insert designed for precision parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Built to the TLR3LTLR insert style within the Top Lok series, this uncoated, left-hand insert delivers a cutting width of 1.57 mm (0.062 inches) and a maximum depth of cut of 2.39 mm (0.094 inches). The positive rake geometry and TLR chip breaker design support controlled chip evacuation during groove turning on a range of workpiece materials. Machinists and tool room professionals working with precision turning applications will find this insert sized for tight-tolerance groove profiles.

This insert is suited for grooving and parting operations on small to medium-diameter workpieces in production turning environments. The Top Lok series is a common platform used in job shops and production facilities running CNC lathes where repeatable insert seating is critical. The uncoated solid carbide construction makes this insert appropriate for materials where coating adhesion or thermal conductivity requirements favor uncoated tooling. The left-hand orientation determines its directional application within the toolholder setup.

Compatibility

Designed for use with Top Lok series toolholders accepting insert seat size 3L. ISO code TLR-3031L H13A and manufacturers catalog number TLR-3031L H13A apply to this insert. Verify toolholder insert seat size and hand orientation before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation of grooving inserts should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician with the machine in a locked-out, de-energized state per LOTO procedures. Seat the insert fully into the Top Lok toolholder pocket and confirm positive seating before securing the clamping mechanism. Inspect the insert seat for chips or debris that could affect seating accuracy or cutting geometry. Do not exceed the manufacturer-specified depth of cut range for this insert style.
