Angle Turning Head T558TM — 90° tool head for APKT 1705 indexable inserts (Teknik Cutting Tools)

The Angle Turning Head T558TM is a compact, right-angle tool head designed for external turning with APKT 1705 indexable inserts, offering straightforward compatibility for workshop lathes and tool-change systems.

• Secure M4x10 Torx clamping with T15 key
• Fits APKT 1705 indexable inserts by Taegutec
• 32 mm shank diameter for rigid mounting
• Ø100 mm head diameter with eight cutting edges

Stable machining through rigid design

The turning head is built around a 32 mm shank and a Ø100 mm head diameter to provide rigidity where it matters: at the cutting zone. This geometry reduces vibration during cuts, which promotes longer insert life and more consistent surface finish. The comparatively short overall length (52 mm) limits cantilever effect, helping maintain concentricity and repeatability across production batches while supporting reliable cycle times on medium-duty lathes.

Fast insert changes and standard clamping

Compatibility with APKT 1705 inserts simplifies stock management and insert procurement; the clamping system uses an M4x10 Torx screw tightened with a T15 key for secure, repeatable seating. The head accepts inserts from Taegutec, a widely available supplier, so replacement parts are easy to source. The 90° cutting angle gives a defined right-angle geometry that is beneficial for shoulder turning and face-off operations, while the indexed eight cutting edges enable quick rotation to fresh cutting faces without toolholder removal.

Workshop integration and handling benefits

Weighing 1.62 kg, the head combines solid mass with manageable handling for toolsetters and operators. The compact profile facilitates mounting in standard tool posts or turret stations without excessive overhang. Routine maintenance is limited to insert indexing and periodic torque checks on the Torx screw, keeping downtime low. When fitted with the correct inserts, the head supports consistent results across repeat jobs and lends itself to standardised fixture and process documentation in production environments.
