S16Q SDQCL Boring Bar by Teknik Makina — Left‑hand holder for DC-- 11T3 inserts

S16Q SDQCL is a left‑hand boring bar for indexable insert turning, designed for secure clamping and extended reach in external machining tasks

• Left‑hand cutting orientation
• Compatible with DC-- 11T3 inserts
• 16 mm shank for secure clamping

Precision left‑hand cutting that supports predictable machining results

The S16Q SDQCL was developed for repeatable, left‑hand external turning where consistent chip flow and tool engagement are essential. Its compatibility with DC-- 11T3 indexable inserts enables quick insert replacement without regrinding, reducing downtime and keeping setup time to a minimum. The specified 107.5° cutting angle promotes a stable cutting geometry that translates into predictable tool forces and consistent surface finish. For purchasers assessing system fitment, the term indexable insert denotes a replaceable cutting tip mounted by screw or clamp; this approach separates the cutting edge from the holder and simplifies maintenance and inventory management.

Secure clamping and reduced vibration for cleaner cuts

A 16 mm shank combined with a cutting height of 30 mm gives the holder a compact but rigid profile, helping to reduce deflection during heavy cuts. The modest mass of 0.285 kg lowers inertia for faster response on tool changers and reduces spindle load during positioning. Reduced tool deflection improves dimensional accuracy and prolongs insert life, which is particularly beneficial in production runs that demand repeatable tolerances. The nominal 180 mm overall length balances reach with stiffness, making the holder suitable for many external turning setups where both accessibility and stability are required.

Practical workshop integration and insert selection made straightforward

The design is optimised for the SDQC clamping style and is intended specifically for DC-- 11T3 inserts; this standardisation eases stocking and tool planning. Left‑hand orientation is advantageous for back‑facing operations or when machining directions require a counter‑rotational approach. The compact dimensions mean the holder integrates smoothly with conventional tool posts and clamping systems marked for an 11 clamping designation. For buyers considering retrofit or new setups, matching insert geometry and seat height to the holder ensures correct rake and clearance angles, preserving cutting performance and surface integrity.

FAQ

Which inserts fit this boring bar?
The S16Q SDQCL boring bar accepts DC-- 11T3 indexable inserts; the SDQC clamping style is specified for secure seating and repeatable positioning.

Is the holder suitable for back‑facing or reversing operations?
Yes, the left‑hand cutting orientation is intended for operations where the tool must cut counter‑directionally or perform back‑facing cuts.

What does the 16 mm shank mean for setup?
A 16 mm shank provides a compact clamping footprint that is compatible with tool posts and holders engineered for that shank size, offering a good balance between rigidity and reach.

How does the cutting angle affect machining?
The 107.5° cutting angle controls chip flow and cutting forces; it favours stable engagement for external turning and helps maintain surface finish consistency with the correct insert geometry.
