Hertel 1002808 Mcln Negative Rake Turning Toolholder

Product Description

The HERTEL 1002808 is a right-hand MCLN-style negative rake indexable turning toolholder designed for precision metal-turning operations on the lathe. The holder accepts CN..543 series inserts and features a 1.25 x 1.25 inch square shank with an overall length of 6 inches. Negative rake geometry provides added edge strength and is well-suited for harder workpiece materials and interrupted cuts. This toolholder is intended for installation by machinists and toolroom professionals working with indexable insert turning setups.

This toolholder is used in external turning applications on CNC and manual lathes in job shops, production machining environments, and toolroom settings. The MCLN style is a standard configuration for general-purpose turning and profiling. The right-hand designation means the cutter feeds from right to left along the workpiece. It is part of the HERTEL Multi-Option series, making it compatible with a broad range of insert grades and coatings available in the CN..543 form factor.
