Sandvik Coromant 5755754 Turning Insert VBMT332-PM 5015

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5755754 is a solid carbide turning insert in the VBMT style, designed for precision external turning operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Part of the CoroTurn 107 series, this insert features a 35-degree diamond shape with a neutral hand orientation and a 0.0313-inch corner radius. The PM chip breaker geometry is engineered for efficient chip control during turning. With a 3/8-inch inscribed circle and an insert length of 0.6223 inches, this is a compact, high-precision indexable insert suited for finish and semi-finish turning applications. Installation is handled by licensed machinists and CNC operators working in production or job-shop environments.

This insert is primarily intended for turning steel workpieces, with secondary suitability for cast iron. The CoroTurn 107 series is a widely used platform for external turning, profiling, and light-duty roughing where a small-nose-radius, low-cutting-angle insert is required. The VBMT geometry and screw-held mounting method make it a standard choice for precision turning on both manual and automated turning centers. The 5015 grade is an uncoated carbide grade appropriate for the designated workpiece materials.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torque wrench and screw driver bit specified for the CoroTurn 107 toolholder to secure the clamping screw — do not overtighten. Inspect the insert seat and clamping screw for wear or debris before seating the new insert.
