Ingersoll Cutting Tools 7000461 Cap Screw T15 Torx M4x0.7

Product Description

The INGERSOLL CUTTING TOOLS 7000461 is a cap screw designed to secure indexable inserts in milling tool bodies. With an M4 x 0.7 thread, a T15 Torx drive, and an overall length of 0.472 inches, this screw provides the precise clamping force needed to hold cutting inserts firmly during milling operations. The Torx drive design reduces cam-out risk compared to hex socket styles, making it a reliable choice for high-cycle insert changes in production environments. Licensed machinists and toolroom technicians working with indexable milling cutters rely on this type of hardware to maintain consistent insert seating and cutting performance.

This cap screw is suited for indexable milling applications where M4 x 0.7 insert screws are specified. It is a direct match for the SM40-120-20 insert screw position. Typical use cases include face mills, shoulder mills, and other indexable milling tool bodies that accept M4-threaded insert clamping hardware. It is sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 10 pieces per transaction.

Key Features

• M4 x 0.7 thread for precise insert clamping in compatible milling tool bodies
• T15 Torx drive reduces cam-out and fastener wear during insert changes
• 0.472-inch overall length matched to standard indexable insert pocket depth
• Corresponds to insert screw reference SM40-120-20
• Lightweight at 0.05 pounds, minimizing tool body imbalance in high-speed applications

Compatibility

Compatible with indexable milling tool bodies requiring M4 x 0.7 insert clamping screws. Matches insert screw designation SM40-120-20 as specified by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians familiar with indexable tooling systems. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before replacing insert screws. Use a calibrated T15 Torx driver or torque wrench bit to seat the screw - do not overtighten, as this can damage the insert or thread the tool body pocket. Inspect threads on both the screw and the tool body pocket at each insert change to catch early signs of wear.
