Corner tool head T183-1TM — 50 mm diameter, internal coolant (Teknik Makina)

Corner tool head T183-1TM provides a compact cutting solution for turning operations using AP-- 1604 indexable inserts, optimised for controlled chip flow and short overhangs.

• 50 mm diameter for stable cutting
• Internal coolant for secure chip evacuation
• Compatible with AP-- 1604 indexable inserts
• Robust M4x10 Torx screw fixing

Consistent rigidity for repeatable surface quality

The compact construction of this tool head combines a 50 mm diameter body with a short overall length of 45 mm, delivering reduced overhang and improved stiffness during cutting. Lower deflection translates directly into more consistent part geometry and surface finish, which is especially relevant for serial production. The moderate mass of 0.401 kg keeps the assembly well balanced on standard tool posts while supporting stable feed rates.

Coolant-through routing extends insert life

A coolant-through design supplies cutting fluid directly to the cutting zone, reducing temperatures and facilitating chip control. This results in slower tool wear and fewer unplanned insert changes, improving uptime. For operations where coolant delivery matters—difficult-to-evacuate chips or higher cutting speeds—the internal routing supports longer service intervals and steadier process parameters.

Secure clamping for quick indexable changes

Mechanical retention relies on a proven M4x10 Torx screw with a T15 key interface, ensuring reliable clamp force and simple removal during insert changes. The 90° cutting angle provides a predictable cutting geometry that suits many finishing and profiling tasks. Five indexed cutting positions allow efficient rotation and balanced wear management without frequent tool swaps.

Broad compatibility with AP-- 1604 insert systems

Designed for AP-- 1604 indexable inserts and optimised for Korloy insert geometries, the head integrates smoothly into existing tooling families. Compatibility with widely used insert standards reduces setup complexity and inventory variety, enabling straightforward retrofitting in established turning cells or bench lathes.

Practical workshop integration and handling

The compact footprint and ergonomic fixing mean the head is quick to fit and set up; shorter overhangs shorten cycle times and simplify clamping checks. The labelled SKU T183-1TM supports easy reordering and stock management. The combination of compact design and internal coolant makes it a pragmatic choice for medium-duty turning where process stability and ease of maintenance matter.

Manufacturer quality and operational reliability

Produced by Teknik Makina, this tool head is engineered for consistent performance in industrial environments and routine machining tasks. The focus on robust fastenings, effective coolant delivery and standard insert compatibility helps maintain predictable operating costs and less downtime—key concerns for production planners and workshop managers.

FAQ

What insert type does this tool head accept?
This corner tool head accepts AP-- 1604 indexable inserts and is specified for insert geometries from Korloy.

Is the coolant delivered to the cutting edge?
Yes, the tool head features internal coolant routing that supplies fluid directly to the cutting zone to improve chip control and reduce insert wear.

Which fastener and key are required for insert clamping?
Clamping uses an M4x10 Torx screw and requires a T15 Torx key for reliable tightening and quick insert changes.

Does the head suit heavy overhang applications?
The compact 50 mm diameter and 45 mm overall length are optimised for minimal overhang; for very long reaches, a different tool geometry may be preferable.

Can this head be used on manual lathes and CNC machines?
The mechanical design and standard insert compatibility make it suitable for both manual lathes and CNC turning centres where AP-- 1604 inserts are used.
