Eckmesserkopf T177TM — Corner tool head with 90° cutting angle for APKT 1003 indexable inserts (Teknik Makina)
Eckmesserkopf T177TM is a compact corner cutting head designed for shoulder and face-turning operations with indexable inserts, offering a sturdy 22 mm shank and secure Torx clamping for industrial turning applications.
- 90° cutting angle for precise shoulder turning
- Compatible with APKT 1003 indexable inserts
- 22 mm toolholder shank diameter, robust fit
- Torx M2.5×5.5 screw with T8 key for secure clamping
Consistent square shoulders and reliable cycle times
The head’s defining geometry provides a 90° cutting angle, which produces exact right-angled shoulders without additional setup work; this reduces secondary operations and shortens cycle times. Thanks to the rigid 22 mm shank and a compact overall length, the toolholder delivers improved stability in the bore of a turret or live tool, so vibrations are minimised and insert life is extended. Such mechanical stability translates into fewer interruptions and a more predictable production rhythm.
Simple integration with industry-standard inserts and holders
Designed for use with APKT 1003 indexable inserts from mainstream manufacturers such as Korloy, the tool head fits established insert routines and inventory lists. The unit’s retention system is built around a Torx M2.5×5.5 screw operated with a T8 driver, enabling fast, repeatable insert changes and secure clamping without exotic tooling. For workshops seeking to harmonise tooling across multiple lathes, this compatibility reduces the need for specialised inserts and simplifies procurement and logistics.
Compact dimensions for versatile machining positions
With a 50 mm diameter, an overall length of 40 mm and a weight of 0.398 kg, the head is compact yet substantial enough for heavy engagement when indexable inserts are used for turning and facing. The relatively short projection supports close-in work and reduces overhang, which benefits finish quality and dimensional control. Fewer passes are required to reach tolerance, producing a net gain in throughput and a reduction in tool costs over time.

FAQ
Which inserts fit this corner tool head?
The corner tool head T177TM is specified for use with APKT 1003 indexable inserts; inserts from Korloy in that designation series are compatible.
What clamping hardware is required for insert changes?
Insert retention on the T177TM is secured with a Torx M2.5×5.5 screw and requires a T8 key for tightening and release.
Can this head be mounted in standard toolholders?
The head has a 22 mm shank diameter suitable for holders that accept a 22 mm mount; check turret or toolpost compatibility before installation.
Is the tool head suitable for close-in shoulder work?
Yes — the compact 50 mm diameter and 40 mm overall length make the unit well suited to close-in shoulder and face turning with reduced overhang.
How does the geometry affect cutting stability?
The 90° cutting angle produces square shoulders and, combined with the robust shank and secure clamping, reduces vibration for improved finish and extended insert life.
