T-nut cutter TKC174TM – 17 mm diameter, for RD-- 0702 indexable inserts (Teknik Makina)

The T-nut cutter TKC174TM is a precision tool designed for machining T-slots with RD-- 0702 indexable inserts, optimised for both workshop and CNC environments.

• 17 mm cutting diameter
• Compatible with RD-- 0702 inserts
• 16 mm shank for stable clamping
• Two cutting edges for consistent finish

Consistent compatibility with industry-standard inserts

The cutter is engineered around the RD-- 0702 indexable inserts, ensuring straightforward integration with commonly stocked inserts for T-slot applications. This compatibility reduces spare-part complexity and shortens downtime during tool changes, as the insert type is widely available. The focus on established insert geometry guarantees repeatable results in series machining and supports efficient inventory management for production and maintenance teams.

Stable clamping and accurate slot profiles

With a 17 mm diameter and a 16 mm shank, the tool delivers concentricity and rigidity required for precise slot profiles. The two cutting edges provide balanced cutting forces and a consistent surface finish, helping to minimise vibration and tool deflection during operation. These characteristics translate into improved dimensional accuracy for T-slots and reduced secondary finishing work, which supports higher first-pass yield and lower processing costs.

Designed for efficient handling and quick insert changes

The cutter’s geometry and assembly use a retaining screw (M2.5x5.5) that is driven with a Torx T8 key, enabling rapid and secure insert replacement with common workshop tools. With an overall length of 120 mm and a shank cutting length of 20 mm, the design offers convenient access for maintenance while maintaining the reach needed for deeper T-slot operations. The modest weight of 0.172 kg makes the tool easy to handle during setup and reduces inertial loading on smaller spindles.

FAQ

Which inserts are compatible with this cutter?
The cutter accepts RD-- 0702 indexable inserts; the TKC174TM is built around that insert geometry for reliable seating and predictable cutting results.

What clamping size is required for the shank?
The shank diameter is 16 mm, so a 16 mm collet or holder is appropriate for secure clamping and concentric operation.

How are the inserts secured?
Inserts are fixed with a M2.5x5.5 screw driven by a Torx T8 key, enabling quick insert changes and secure retention during machining.

Is the tool suitable for CNC milling and manual machines?
Yes, the cutter’s 16 mm shank and balanced two-edge design make it suitable for both CNC milling machines and workshop machining centres, depending on the machine’s spindle and clamping system.

What are the key dimensions and weight for planning set-up?
The cutter has a 17 mm cutting diameter, overall length of 120 mm, shank cutting length of 20 mm and weighs 0.172 kg, information useful for fixture design and spindle load calculations.
