Hertel 1000032 Lh Scac Indexable Turning Toolholder

Product Description

The HERTEL 1000032 is a left-hand SCAC-style indexable turning toolholder designed for external turning operations on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. Built with a neutral rake geometry at 0 degrees, it delivers consistent chip control and stable cutting performance across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The toolholder features a screw-type insert clamping method, providing secure insert retention during interrupted cuts and continuous turning. With a 5/8 inch square shank and an overall length of 4.5 inches, it fits standard toolpost and turret configurations common in production and job-shop environments. Installation and setup are handled by machinists and toolroom technicians.

This toolholder is suited for use in production turning applications where left-hand cutting direction is required. The 10-degree lead angle and 3/8 inch insert inscribed circle sizing make it appropriate for medium-duty roughing and finishing passes. It accepts CC..32.5. style inserts, offering broad insert availability from multiple suppliers. Typical applications include facing, turning, and light profiling on lathes running steel, cast iron, and similar workpiece materials.

Key Features

• Left-hand cutting orientation for specific toolpath and setup requirements
• Neutral rake at 0 degrees for versatile material compatibility
• Screw-type insert clamping for positive, repeatable insert location
• 5/8 inch square shank fits standard turret and toolpost bores
• Accepts CC..32.5. inserts with a 3/8 inch inscribed circle
• Steel toolholder construction for rigidity and long service life

Compatibility

Designed to accept CC..32.5. indexable inserts. Compatible insert inscribed circle is 3/8 inch. Verify turret or toolpost bore size matches the 5/8 inch shank before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom personnel. Ensure the lathe is fully powered down and the spindle is locked before seating or changing inserts. Use the appropriate Torx or hex key for the insert clamping screw as specified by the insert manufacturer. Confirm shank seating depth and overhang per shop standards to minimize vibration and deflection during cuts.
