Hertel 1002792 Mdpn Neutral Turning Toolholder

Product Description

The HERTEL 1002792 is an MDPN-style indexable turning toolholder designed for negative rake cutting operations on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. Built around a 1 inch by 1 inch square shank and a 6 inch overall length, this neutral-hand toolholder accepts DN..432 series inserts, making it a direct-fit choice for shops running standard negative rake turning applications. Weighing 0.77 pounds, it is a rigid, compact holder suited for general-purpose OD turning where consistent insert indexing and repeatable tool position are required. Machinists and toolroom technicians are the primary installers.

This toolholder fits into standard 1 inch square tool block stations on turret-style CNC lathes and engine lathes equipped with appropriate toolpost systems. The neutral hand orientation means it can be positioned for straight turning passes without favoring a left- or right-hand approach, giving setup flexibility on multi-tool turrets. It is part of the HERTEL Multi-Option series and is well suited to production turning environments where operators need consistent insert seating and predictable chip geometry across multiple passes.
