• Ø63 mm head with 22 mm mounting shank
• Torx M3x7 screw; T8 key size

Precise corner turning without compromise

A 90° cutting geometry delivers consistent, repeatable corner profiles while keeping the machining setup compact. The combination of a 90° cutting angle and support for XNKT 0604 indexable inserts provides a predictable cutting edge orientation, which simplifies programming and process planning. The head’s Ø63 mm diameter helps maintain rigidity during interrupted cuts, reducing chatter and improving surface finish. For users less familiar with insert codes: XNKT 0604 denotes a small, rectangular/triangular indexable insert format commonly used for fine external turning and profiling.

Secure fastening and straightforward insert replacement

Fast, reliable clamping is provided via the specified M3x7 Torx screw and the corresponding T8 key size, ensuring repeatable seating of the insert seat. The holder’s 22 mm mounting shank is intended for stable attachment to compatible tool posts or modular adaptors, reducing deflection under load and helping to extend insert life. Because the cutting edge is supplied by indexable inserts rather than a brazed tip, routine maintenance is limited to insert changes and a quick screw torque check, which keeps downtime and overall tooling costs low.

Compatibility that eases tooling logistics

This turning head is adapted to work with inserts from established manufacturers such as Korloy, making it straightforward to source replacement edges and standardise tooling across machine fleets. Standard insert formats reduce procurement complexity and allow workshops to consolidate stock. The head’s compatibility with XNKT 0604 inserts supports a range of external turning and profiling tasks while maintaining interchangeability between holders and cutters.

Compact design that supports shopfloor flexibility

With an overall length of 40 mm and a mass of 0.527 kg, the unit is compact enough for constrained setups while offering the mass required to dampen vibration in many turning operations. The modest footprint and standardised mounting diameter enable installation on smaller lathes or multi-axis turning centres where space and accessibility are limited. This balance of rigidity and compactness helps achieve consistent parts quality in high-mix, low-volume production and in specialised machining cells.
