Eckmesserkopf T179TM — 90° corner turning head for APKT 1003 inserts by Teknik Makina
The Eckmesserkopf T179TM is a compact corner turning head designed for precision external turning and profiling using APKT 1003 indexable inserts, suitable for workshop and production environments
- 90° cutting angle for precise profiling
- Compatible with APKT 1003 indexable inserts
- Fits Korloy APKT 1003 insert geometry
- 27 mm shank with 80 mm head diameter
Engineered rigidity for consistent turning results
Built with a focus on stability, the head’s Ø 80 mm diameter and 27 mm shank deliver a rigid connection to the toolpost, reducing vibration and supporting repeatable part geometry. The 90° cutting angle provides predictable engagement for external profiling and square shoulder operations, enabling consistent surface finish and dimensional control. The stated weight of 1.205 kg contributes to mass damping without excessive tool overhang, which helps maintain concentricity and prolong insert life.
Fast, secure insert changes minimise downtime
Maintenance and index changes are simplified thanks to compatibility with APKT 1003 indexable inserts and a straightforward fastening system. The insert is secured with an M2.5x5.5 Torx screw operated by a T8 key, which allows quick tightening and reliable clamping force for repeatable seating. The Eckmesserkopf T179TM from Teknik Makina supports efficient shopfloor routines: reduced set‑up time and fast insert exchange mean less idle machine time and higher productivity per shift.
Practical dimensions and simplified inventory management
The head’s 50 mm overall length and compact profile make it suitable for confined setups and multi‑operation fixtures, while the availability for Korloy APKT 1003 inserts reduces the need for specialised spare stocks. With eight cutting edges the configuration supports indexed tool life extension when combined with multi‑edge inserts, and the standardised interface facilitates integration into existing toolholder systems. Clear, measurable data such as shank diameter and head Ø simplify purchasing decisions and ensure interchangeability across compatible toolholders.
