Boring Bar KA206TM for VBMT 1103 Indexable Inserts — 20 mm, internal coolant (Teknik Makina)

The Boring Bar KA206TM is a purpose-built tool for internal turning with VBMT 1103 indexable inserts, designed to deliver consistent chip control and extended insert life in CNC and manual lathe applications

• 20 mm body diameter with internal coolant
• Compatible with VBMT 1103 indexable inserts
• A16Q shank, 16 mm shank diameter
• 180 mm total length, right-hand cutting

Reliable coolant-to-edge design for improved tool life

The internal coolant channel ensures coolant reaches the cutting edge directly, promoting efficient chip evacuation and reducing thermal stress on the insert. For operations that demand repeatable surface quality, this geometry helps to maintain cutting-edge integrity and reduces the frequency of insert changes. The combination of coolant delivery and diameter stability supports consistent machining cycles and lower overall tooling costs through extended component life.

Secure seating and ISO-compliant shank for vibration reduction

A standard A16Q shank and 16 mm shank diameter provide compatibility with a range of ISO toolholders and clamping systems. The robust shank interface and 11 mm clamping head width minimise micro-movement during cuts, which in turn reduces chatter and improves dimensional stability. This makes the bar particularly suitable where concentricity and repeatability are required across longer production runs.

Serviceable fastening and optimised cutting geometry

Assembly and indexable-insert retention are achieved with a M2.5x6.5 Torx screw and a T8 key, enabling fast, tool-assisted insert changes. The tool features a 93° cutting angle and a 30 mm cutting height that position the insert for effective material engagement while maintaining clearance to the bore. The right-hand cutting orientation is matched to standard lathe rotation for conventional internal turning tasks and predictable chip flow.

Reach and compatibility for diverse internal turning tasks

A total length of 180 mm gives the bar sufficient reach for many internal operations without excessive overhang, while the lightweight construction supports high-speed indexing and minimal spindle load. The KA206TM is compatible with VBMT 1103 indexable inserts, allowing familiar insert geometries to be applied where a compact, coolant-fed boring solution is required. This combination supports efficient set-up, reduced tool inventory and consistent production throughput.

FAQ

Is this boring bar compatible with VBMT 1103 inserts?
Yes. The KA206TM is designed specifically for use with VBMT 1103 indexable inserts and provides the appropriate seat and geometry for stable insert retention.

Does the bar provide internal coolant to the cutting edge?
Yes. Internal coolant is integrated into the design so coolant reaches the insert area directly, which improves chip evacuation and helps to prolong insert life.

What shank standard does the bar use and what holder is required?
The bar uses an A16Q shank with a 16 mm diameter; it is intended for holders that accept the A16Q interface for secure clamping and reduced vibration.

Which tools are required for insert changes on this bar?
Insert retention is secured by a M2.5x6.5 Torx screw and requires a T8 Torx key for assembly and disassembly.

For what applications is this boring bar intended?
The bar is intended for internal turning operations where VBMT 1103 indexable inserts are used, offering a coolant-fed solution for improved surface finish and tool life in general turning tasks.
