Eckmesserkopf T498TM – 90° indexable insert holder for VCGT 1604, Ø 40 mm (Teknik Makina)

The Eckmesserkopf T498TM is a 90° insert holder engineered for precision external turning and square-shoulder operations with VCGT 1604 indexable inserts.

• 90° cutting angle for square shoulder turning
• Designed for VCGT 1604 indexable inserts
• 40 mm head diameter, robust construction
• Torx M4x10 fastening, T15 key required

Higher process reliability through defined geometry and build

The 90° corner geometry delivers consistent shoulder profiles and predictable chip flow even in repeat production. Manufactured for CNC turning applications, this tool head combines a 40 mm head diameter with a compact overall length of 52 mm to provide stability in tight setups. The result is reduced vibration and improved surface finish, which shortens downstream rework and keeps cycle times steady.

Fast, secure clamping for efficient insert changes

Clamping is handled by a Torx screw M4x10 with a T15 key, enabling quick insert replacement and consistent seating without elaborate adjustments. The shank Ø 16 mm ensures a solid connection to common tool holders in small-to-medium turning stations. These features promote predictable tool life and minimise downtime during shift changes, supporting continuous production in busy workshops.

Clear compatibility and application scope for planners

Designed specifically for VCGT 1604 indexable inserts, the head offers a straightforward solution for profiling, shoulder turning and parting-related face work where a defined 90° edge is required. The component’s modest mass (approx. 0.277 kg) and standardised fastening mean effortless integration into existing tool portfolios and easy inventory management for maintenance teams and purchasing agents alike.

Built for workshop endurance and straightforward logistics

The construction emphasises robustness and repeatability rather than novelty: straightforward fastening geometry, standard Torx hardware and an industry-standard insert size help to keep spare-part lists short. For production planners this translates into predictable stocking, fewer special tools and quicker turnarounds when replacing worn components—factors that support stable throughput and lower total cost of ownership over time.
