Allied Machine 8IP-20 TP20 Torx Plus Indexable Driver

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 8IP-20 is a TP20 Torx Plus driver designed for indexable tooling systems used in drilling applications. This driver provides secure, positive engagement with clamp screws used to seat and retain indexable inserts in T-A series drill bodies. Weighing 1 pound, the 8IP-20 is a purpose-built tool for insert changes and maintenance on indexable drilling heads. It is used by machinists and toolroom technicians who regularly service or reconfigure indexable drilling assemblies in production or job-shop environments.

The 8IP-20 is intended for use with clamp screw hardware in T-A series indexable drill bodies. It is specifically compatible with screw part number 7514-IP20-10 and insert assembly T-ACRI-45-B-C5A. This driver belongs to the ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING T-A series product family and is used wherever T-A series indexable drills require insert seating, clamping screw installation, or routine insert replacement on the shop floor or at the machine tool.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation and insert changes on indexable drilling tools should be performed by qualified machinists or toolroom personnel with the spindle powered down and the machine in a safe, locked-out state. Use only the correct TP20 Torx Plus driver when seating or removing clamp screws — using an incorrect driver size can damage the screw socket and compromise clamping force. Follow the tool manufacturer's torque guidance for clamp screw installation; do not over-tighten or under-tighten insert clamp screws. Inspect the clamp screw and driver tip for wear before each use.
