16mm Screw-In Face Mill For APXT 1003 Indexable Inserts With Internal Coolant, M08 Thread - Teknik Makina

A compact, high-performance screw-in milling head combining a 16 mm cutting diameter with internal coolant provides improved chip control and prolonged insert life. With a secure M08 thread and compatibility for APXT 1003 indexable inserts from Korloy, machining setups benefit from fast changeovers and consistent results — order directly via Metav Werkzeuge or contact their specialist team for integration support.

VT136-1TM screw-in milling cutter — 16 mm, internal coolant, for APXT 1003 inserts (Teknik Makina)

The VT136-1TM screw-in milling cutter is designed for indexable-insert milling applications using APXT 1003 inserts, offering a compact 41 mm overall length and integrated coolant for improved process stability.

• 16 mm cutting diameter
• Internal coolant for better chip evacuation
• Compatible with APXT 1003 Korloy inserts
• M08 thread for secure screw-in mounting

Stable chip control for consistent surface quality

The integrated internal coolant channel supplies lubricant and coolant directly to the cutting zone, reducing heat at the edge and aiding chip evacuation. This results in fewer built-up edges and a more reliable surface finish during serial production. The compact 41 mm overall length reduces overhang, which helps to limit vibration and maintain dimensional accuracy across a run. For applications where repeatability matters, the combination of coolant-fed cutting and a short tool projection supports stable machining and predictable cycle times.

Secure mounting and fast insert changes to reduce downtime

A robust M08 screw-in connection with a defined thread height of 16 mm ensures positive seating and repeatable concentricity. The head accepts APXT 1003 indexable inserts, supplied by Korloy, enabling rapid index changes and minimal tool change time. The assembly uses a Torx fixing system (Torx T8) with the specified screw M2.5x5.5, so maintenance routines are straightforward and repeatable. These design choices focus on economic operation: shorter tool-change intervals and reliable clamping reduce unproductive time on the shop floor.

Balanced cutter geometry for efficient material removal

Equipped with two cutting edges, the milling head balances removal rate and surface quality for general-purpose milling tasks. The specified cutting-edge height of 25 mm delivers adequate edge exposure for stable cutting engagement without excessive overhang. The 16 mm diameter suits medium-finish operations where compact tooling provides better access and control. In production contexts, fewer oscillations and steady chip formation contribute to longer insert life and lower frequency of rework.

Practical serviceability and integration into existing toolchains

The tool’s light weight (0.05 kg) and standardised interface make it a straightforward addition to existing holders and tool magazines. Internal coolant and standard insert compatibility simplify stock handling, while the clear specification of fastening components supports predictable maintenance. Documentation of the key assembly parts — Torx T8, screw M2.5x5.5 and the M08 thread — ensures spare parts are easily identified and ordering routines remain efficient. The result is a milling solution geared towards consistent throughput and low process variability.

FAQ

Which inserts fit this milling head?
The VT136-1TM is specified for APXT 1003 indexable inserts; Korloy inserts in this designation are directly compatible.

Does the tool support coolant-through operation?
Yes — the tool features internal coolant, supplying coolant close to the cutting edge to assist chip evacuation and thermal management.

What is the mounting thread and how is it fastened?
The head uses an M08 screw-in thread with a thread height of 16 mm and is secured with the Torx system (Torx T8) using screw M2.5x5.5.

How many cutting edges does the head have and what is the edge height?
The cutter provides two cutting edges with a cutting-edge height of 25 mm for balanced material removal and finish.

Is the VT136-1TM suitable for reduced overhang setups?
Yes — the compact overall length of 41 mm is intended to minimise overhang, improving rigidity and reducing vibration during milling.
