Sandvik Coromant 5755731 Turning Insert VBMT332-MF 1105

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5755731 is a VBMT332-MF 1105 solid carbide turning insert designed for precision CNC lathe and turning center operations. Coated with TiAlN for extended tool life in high-temperature cutting environments, it features a 35-degree diamond insert shape (V), a 3/8-inch inscribed circle (0.3750 inches), and a 1/32-inch corner radius (0.0313 inches). The insert measures 0.6223 inches in length and 3/16 inches in thickness. The MF chip breaker geometry promotes efficient chip control during light to medium finishing passes. Installation is performed by toolroom machinists and CNC operators using standard screw-type insert holders.

This insert is suited for finishing and light turning applications on steel, stainless, and similar workpiece materials where tight tolerances and fine surface finishes are required. The TiAlN coating provides thermal resistance during dry or semi-dry cutting conditions, making it appropriate for high-speed operations in production turning environments. The VBMT style with a B clearance code and M tolerance code fits standard VBMT-compatible screw-lock toolholders used in both manual and CNC turning setups. The ISO code for this insert is VBMT 16 04 08-MF 1105.

Installation Notes

Insert replacement is performed by qualified machinists or CNC toolroom personnel. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key to seat the clamping screw to the toolholder manufacturer's specified method without over-torquing the insert pocket. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surface for chips or debris before installing a new insert to ensure accurate seating and tool-life performance.
