Hertel 1000160 Indexable Turning Toolholder 1 in Shank

Product Description

The HERTEL 1000160 is an indexable turning toolholder designed for use on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. Built to the MTENNS163 style, it features a neutral hand orientation and secures the insert with a clamp screw and screw holding method. The shank measures 1 inch wide by 1 inch tall, and the overall length is 5 inches. The toolholder is machined from steel and applies a negative rake angle of -10 degrees, making it well suited for use with negative-geometry TN-style inserts. Machinists and toolroom technicians install this holder for general-purpose external turning operations.

This toolholder is applicable to external turning applications on production and job-shop lathes where a neutral-hand, clamp-screw holder is required. The 1 inch square shank fits standard tool blocks and turrets sized for that cross-section. With a head length of 1.16 inches and a back-of-bar to cutting edge distance of 0.5 inches, it positions the cutting edge accurately relative to center height. No coolant-through capability is present, so it is best suited for flood or dry cutting setups. It belongs to the Multi-Option series and is sold individually.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the lathe or turning center before mounting or removing the toolholder from the turret.
