Sandvik Coromant ISO S Insert Program

Effective October 1, 2010, Sandvik Coromant launched more than 300 inserts in a new series of optimized ISO S turning geometries with easy-to-choose guidelines for every machining requirement.

Used for turning HRSA and titanium alloys, the ISO S turning geometries can provide roughing to finishing for continuous to interrupted cuts. These new geometries ensure easy optimization, improved productivity, increased process security and high surface quality.

The six different geometries are designed to handle depths of cuts from 0.008” to 0.393” with excellent chip control and low tool pressure. Four of the geometries are designed for moderate to small depths of cut in light roughing to finishing applications. The other two geometries are stronger and optimize performance in larger depths of cut in roughing or light roughing.
