Sandvik Coromant 5755724 Turning Insert VBMT332-KM 3210

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5755724 is a VBMT-style turning insert engineered for precision lathe and turning center operations. Manufactured from solid carbide with a multilayer TiCN, Al2O3, and TiN coating, this insert delivers wear resistance and thermal stability across a wide range of workpiece materials. The 35-degree diamond shape (Insert Shape Code V) provides a sharp, narrow cutting angle suited to finishing and profiling passes. The KM chip breaker geometry and grade 3210 carbide substrate are matched for controlled chip formation and consistent surface finish. Machining professionals install this insert in compatible VBMT toolholders as part of a standard screw-clamp mounting system.

This insert is appropriate for turning operations on CNC lathes and manual turning centers in both job shop and production environments. The 35-degree included angle and 0.0313-inch corner radius make it well suited to finishing cuts, contour turning, and reach into tight shoulders. The multilayer coating supports use on steel, stainless, and similar workpiece materials where heat generation and built-up edge are primary concerns. Machinists and CNC operators handling medium-to-light-depth finishing passes will find the KM chip breaker geometry effective for chip control at moderate feed rates.

Key Features

• VBMT insert style with 35-degree diamond shape for precise, low-force finishing cuts
• Multilayer TiCN, Al2O3, and TiN coating for wear resistance and thermal protection
• Grade 3210 solid carbide substrate paired with KM chip breaker geometry
• 0.0313-inch (1/32 inch) corner radius for fine surface finish on profiling operations
• Screw-clamp (hole) insert holding method with 0.1732-inch hole diameter
• ISO Code VBMT 16 04 08-KM 3210 for cross-reference and toolholder matching

Compatibility

Designed for use in VBMT-style screw-clamp turning toolholders accepting a 3/8-inch inscribed circle insert. Verify toolholder pocket geometry and ISO code VBMT 16 04 08-KM 3210 before installation to confirm fit.

Installation Notes

This insert is installed by a machinist or CNC operator using the screw-clamp method standard to VBMT toolholders. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the correct torx or insert-clamp wrench specified by the toolholder manufacturer to seat the insert; do not overtighten the clamp screw. Inspect the toolholder pocket seating surface for chips or wear before installing a fresh insert to avoid rocking or premature edge failure.
