Hertel 1000093 Lh Ctgp Indexable Turning Toolholder

Product Description

The HERTEL 1000093 is a left-hand CTGP-style positive rake indexable turning toolholder designed for use on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. It features a 1 inch by 1 inch shank and accepts TP..43 series indexable inserts. The positive rake geometry reduces cutting forces, which supports cleaner chip formation and longer insert life during external turning operations. The back-of-bar to cutting edge measurement is 1.25 inches, providing a defined tool offset reference for setup. Machinists and tool room technicians install this holder as part of a standard turning tool assembly on production and job-shop lathes.

This toolholder is suited for external turning operations on a variety of workpiece materials where positive rake insert geometry is preferred. The left-hand orientation positions the cutting edge for specific feed directions and spindle configurations. It is commonly used in production turning environments where indexable insert tooling is standard practice, allowing quick insert changes without removing the holder from the turret or tool post.

Key Features

• Left-hand CTGP positive rake tool style for reduced cutting forces during external turning
• 1 inch by 1 inch shank for secure mounting in standard tool blocks and turrets
• Back-of-bar to cutting edge distance of 1.25 inches for consistent tool offset setup
• Accepts TP..43 series indexable inserts for fast, repeatable insert changes
• Positive rake geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduced heat generation

Compatibility

Designed to accept TP..43 series indexable turning inserts. Compatible with tool posts and turret stations sized for a 1 inch by 1 inch shank toolholder. Verify turret bore and clamping system specifications before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the lathe spindle before mounting or adjusting any toolholder. Seat the shank fully in the tool block or turret station and secure all clamping fasteners to the machine manufacturer's recommended torque using appropriate hex or torque wrenches. Confirm tool centerline height and offset values with a dial indicator or presetter before taking a cut.
