Full title and description

ISO 5611-7:2015 — Cartridges, type A, for indexable inserts — Part 7: Style R. This international standard specifies the form and key dimensional characteristics of type A cartridges with fastening hole(s) designated as Style R (cutting edge angle κr = 75°) intended for use with indexable inserts for primarily internal turning operations.

Abstract

ISO 5611-7:2015 applies to cartridges, type A, with hole(s) for fastening screw(s) of style R, i.e. with cutting edge angle κr = 75° for side cutting. Cartridges covered are intended to be used with indexable inserts made of hard metal, ceramic or other cutting materials and are primarily mounted for internal turning operations.

Scope

This part of ISO 5611 specifies the style R form for cartridges type A that have hole(s) for fastening screw(s). It defines the principal dimensions, form features and designation elements relevant to cartridges intended for indexable inserts used in internal turning; in particular it identifies Style R by a cutting edge angle κr = 75° and addresses geometrical and mounting interfaces to ensure interchangeability.

Key topics and requirements

• Definition of Style R cartridges (cutting edge angle κr = 75°) and their intended use for side cutting operations.
• Principal external and mounting dimensions for type A cartridges to ensure interchangeability with indexable inserts.
• Specification of hole(s) for fastening screw(s) including location and basic tolerances relevant to secure mounting.
• Designation and coding conventions consistent with the ISO 5611 series for clear identification.
• Compatibility guidance for use with inserts made of hard metal, ceramics or other cutting materials for internal turning.
• Reference to general survey and dimensional correlation given in ISO 5611-1 (series coordination).

Typical use and users

Used by toolholder and cartridge manufacturers, cutting-tool designers, machine-tool builders, production and tooling engineers, purchasing and quality departments specifying interchangeable cartridges for internal turning, and standards committees. It is also used by technical libraries and organizations that maintain tool catalogs or product data sheets.

Related standards

Part of the ISO 5611 series (ISO 5611-1 through ISO 5611-12) which together define cartridge styles, dimensions and designation rules. ISO 5611-1 (general survey and correlation/determination of dimensions) is the coordinating part for the series; designation rules are linked to ISO 5608 conventions. The standard was prepared by ISO/TC 29/SC 9 (cutting tools).

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO 5611-7:2015 defines the form and key dimensions for cartridges type A designated Style R (used with indexable inserts) primarily intended for internal turning operations.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers geometry and principal dimensions for Style R cartridges (κr = 75°), placement of fastening hole(s), designation elements and compatibility requirements so cartridges and inserts are interchangeable within the ISO 5611 series framework.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Tool and cartridge manufacturers, tooling designers, machine-tool builders, production engineers, quality and procurement teams, and standards committees involved in cutting-tool specification and interchangeability.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: ISO 5611-7:2015 was published on 18 November 2015 and is the current published part for Style R; it replaced earlier consolidated ISO 5611 material from the 1995 edition as the ISO 5611 series was reissued in parts in 2015. Users should check national standard bodies or ISO for any review or amendment status before procurement.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes — ISO 5611 is a multipart standard (parts 1 to 12) covering different cartridge styles and the general survey/dimensional correlation. ISO 5611-1 provides the general rules and correlation for the whole series.

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: Cartridge, type A, indexable insert, Style R, cutting edge angle 75°, internal turning, toolholder, interchangeability, ISO 5611.
