Sandvik Coromant 7101048 Milling Insert Grade 1130 Carbide

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 7101048 is a solid carbide milling insert in the R331.1A series, designed for shoulder and slot milling operations on a wide range of workpiece materials. This single-sided, right-hand insert carries an AlTiCrN coating applied via PVD process, paired with a WL chip breaker geometry for controlled chip formation. The manufacturer grade is 1130, placing it in the P30, M15, and N15 material application categories. It measures 0.3740 inches wide (9.50 mm) and 0.1772 inches thick (4.45 mm), with a corner radius of 0.0598 inches. Two cutting edges are available per insert. Installation is performed by screw-clamping into compatible toolholders.

This insert is suited for milling steel, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, titanium, and hard materials in both roughing and semi-finishing passes. It carries a 90-degree included angle with a positive rake and corner-rounded cutting edge style, making it well-matched to shoulder milling applications where clean wall profiles and chip control are priorities. The insert size code is 084515, and the ANSI and ISO designation is R331.1A-08 45 15H-WL1130. Typical use cases include general-purpose CNC machining centers in production and job-shop environments.

Key Features

• Solid carbide substrate with AlTiCrN PVD coating for wear resistance across multiple material grades
• WL chip breaker geometry supports controlled chip evacuation during shoulder milling
• Positive rake and corner-rounded cutting edge style reduces cutting forces and edge chipping
• Two cutting edges per insert for extended tool life per unit
• Right-hand orientation, screw-mounted, single-sided configuration
• Rated for steel, stainless steel, non-ferrous, superalloys, titanium, and hard materials (P, M, N, S, H codes)

Compatibility

Compatible with the N331.32 cutter series as specified by the manufacturer. The insert follows ANSI and ISO standards under designation R331.1A-08 45 15H-WL1130 and is held by screw clamping in toolholders designed for the R331.1A insert style.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician using a torx or hex key to secure the clamping screw per toolholder manufacturer specifications. Ensure the toolholder pocket and seating surface are clean and free of chips before seating the insert. Verify insert orientation matches the right-hand designation of the holder before engaging the clamp screw. Never exceed the maximum depth of cut listed in the applicable toolholder documentation.
