Carmex 10100002 Anvil Indexable Threading 0.375 Inch

Product Description

The CARMEX 10100002 is a precision-ground anvil designed for use with indexable threading toolholders. It supports the insert during cutting operations, providing a rigid seating surface that maintains insert position under threading loads. The 10100002 features a 0.375 inch insert inscribed circle (IC) and is machined to a -1.5 degree helix angle, making it suited for right-hand external and left-hand internal threading applications. Installation is straightforward and the part weighs 0.05 pounds, making it a compact component within a threading tool assembly. Machinists and toolroom technicians working with indexable threading systems rely on correctly matched anvils to protect insert pockets and maintain repeatable thread quality.

This anvil is intended for use in indexable threading tool assemblies where the insert inscribed circle is 0.375 inch. The -1.5 degree helix angle matches toolholder geometries configured for external right-hand and internal left-hand threading. Typical applications include threading operations on CNC lathes and turning centers in production or job-shop environments. The industry standard designation for this anvil is AE16 -1.5, which can be cross-referenced when sourcing compatible toolholders or replacement inserts.

Key Features

• 0.375 inch insert inscribed circle (IC) for positive insert seating
• -1.5 degree helix angle matched to AE16 -1.5 industry standard geometry
• Supports external right-hand and internal left-hand threading orientations
• 16.00 mm body length for compact toolholder integration
• Lightweight at 0.05 pounds for easy handling during tool assembly

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or spare anvil for indexable threading toolholders requiring a 0.375 inch IC anvil with AE16 -1.5 geometry, accommodating external right-hand and internal left-hand thread cutting configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician during indexable toolholder assembly or insert change. Ensure the machine spindle is stopped and all motion is locked out before servicing a toolholder. The anvil must be seated fully and flat in the insert pocket before the insert and clamping screw are installed. Do not reuse a damaged or deformed anvil, as an improperly seated anvil will compromise insert stability and thread accuracy.
