Sandvik Coromant 5756005 Ceramic Turning Insert VNGA331S0625

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5756005 is a ceramic turning insert designed for high-speed metal cutting on hard workpiece materials. Manufactured to VNGA insert style specifications, it features a 35-degree diamond shape, a titanium nitride (TiN) coating applied via PVD process, and a neutral hand orientation. The insert measures 0.638 inches in length with a 3/8-inch inscribed circle and a 1/64-inch corner radius. With four cutting edges and a clamp-and-pin holding method, this insert is built for production turning applications where tool life and surface finish on hard materials are critical priorities.

This insert is intended for use in the Sandvik Coromant T-Max P turning system and is suited for external and internal turning of hard materials in both production and job-shop environments. The primary workpiece material category is hard material (ISO code H), making it appropriate for hardened steels and similar difficult-to-cut alloys. Licensed machinists and CNC lathe operators will typically spec this insert when surface integrity and dimensional consistency on hard-turning jobs are required. ISO code VNGA160404S01525 6050 applies.

Key Features

• Ceramic substrate with TiN coating via PVD process for wear resistance on hard materials
• 35-degree diamond insert shape (shape code V) provides a sharp, low-contact cutting geometry
• Four usable cutting edges per insert for extended economy in production environments
• 1/64-inch (0.0156 inch) corner radius with A-style chip breaker geometry
• Neutral hand orientation compatible with both left- and right-hand toolholders
• Clamp and pin holding method for rigid, repeatable insert seating

Compatibility

Designed for use in the Sandvik Coromant T-Max P turning system. Insert style VNGA with ISO code VNGA160404S01525 6050. Compatible toolholders must accommodate the clamp-and-pin holding method with a 0.150-inch (3.81 mm) hole diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC setup technicians. Power down and lock out the machine before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or clamping key specified for the T-Max P toolholder to ensure proper seating force without over-torquing the clamp. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surfaces for chips or debris before installing a new edge.
