Hertel H00481580 Indexable Anvil 0.5 Inch Inscribed Circle

Product Description

The HERTEL H00481580 is an indexable anvil designed to seat and support inserts in indexable toolholders used for turning, boring, and threading operations. Anvils protect the toolholder pocket from insert-to-pocket contact wear and maintain precise insert seating geometry over repeated index cycles. This anvil accommodates a 0.5-inch insert inscribed circle and carries a 1.5-degree helix angle. It is suited for external right-hand and internal left-hand orientations, covering a range of common lathe and boring bar setups. At 0.12 pounds, the part is compact and engineered for consistent, repeatable insert positioning on the machine.

This anvil is intended for use in CNC turning centers, manual lathes, and boring applications where indexable carbide inserts require a hardened seating surface. The external right-hand orientation covers standard OD turning operations, while the internal left-hand orientation addresses ID boring and threading bars. The toolholder insert size code 22U provides a reference for matching the anvil to the correct pocket geometry. Machinists and tool-crib personnel working with indexable tooling systems will find this anvil a straightforward replacement component when pocket wear or damage requires service.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement indexable anvil for toolholders requiring a 0.5-inch inscribed circle insert seat with a 22U insert size code in external right-hand or internal left-hand configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Before replacing the anvil, ensure the machine is fully powered down and the spindle is locked. Remove the existing anvil screw and worn anvil, clean the pocket seating surface, and seat the new anvil flush before torquing the retaining screw to the toolholder manufacturer's specification. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping components for wear before returning the holder to service.
