Sandvik Coromant 5922160 Milling Insert Series 490 Carbide

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5922160 is a solid carbide milling insert in the Series 490 platform, designed for high-performance face and shoulder milling operations. It carries a CVD-applied multilayer coating of TiCrN, Al2O3, and TiN under manufacturer grade 2040, targeting long tool life and thermal resistance at the cutting edge. The insert has a square shape with a positive rake angle of 26 degrees and four cutting edges, making it a cost-effective option for production environments. It measures 3.90 mm thick with an inscribed circle of 13.80 mm and a corner radius of 0.80 mm. Installation is via screw-hold method into compatible 490-series cutter bodies.

This insert is suited for machining steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium, corresponding to ISO material grades P45, M40, and S30. It is appropriate for both roughing and semi-finishing passes where controlled chip formation is required. The MM chip breaker geometry supports positive cutting action and chip evacuation in these demanding materials. Typical applications include CNC machining centers in aerospace, general manufacturing, and energy sector shops where stainless and titanium workpieces are common. The right-hand configuration and 90-degree included angle make it compatible with standard square-shoulder 490-series tooling setups. Maximum depth of cut is 10.00 mm.

Key Features

• CVD multilayer coating: TiCrN, Al2O3, TiN for thermal and wear resistance
• Four cutting edges on a single-sided square insert for extended tool economy
• Positive rake angle of 26 degrees reduces cutting forces on difficult materials
• MM chip breaker geometry optimized for steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium
• Screw-lock insert holding for secure, repeatable positioning in the cutter body
• Corner radius of 0.80 mm reduces stress concentration at the cutting edge

Compatibility

Designed for use with Sandvik Coromant 490-series cutter bodies. ANSI and ISO code: 490R-140408M-MM 2040. Insert size code: 140408. Compatible cutter series: 490.

Installation Notes

Installation and indexing should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Power down and lock out the spindle before handling or replacing inserts. Use the correct torx or hex key to the cutter body manufacturers specified torque when securing the clamping screw - do not overtighten. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surface for chips or debris before seating a new insert to ensure proper contact and runout.
