Ingersoll Cutting Tools 7041147 Insert Screw

Product Description

The INGERSOLL CUTTING TOOLS 7041147 is an insert screw designed to secure indexable cutting inserts in milling, turning, and boring toolholders. Insert screws are a consumable hardware component used to clamp replaceable carbide or cermet inserts firmly against the toolholder pocket seat. A properly torqued insert screw maintains insert positioning under cutting loads and prevents micro-movement that leads to premature edge failure or poor surface finish. This screw is classified under UNSPSC code 31161500 and is sold individually.

Insert screws are used in CNC and manual machining environments wherever indexable toolholders are in service. Typical applications include face milling heads, turning tool blocks, boring bars, and grooving holders that accept mechanically clamped inserts. Machinists and toolroom technicians replace these screws as part of routine toolholder maintenance, particularly when thread damage or screw failure is found during an insert change.

Key Features

• Designed specifically for clamping indexable inserts in compatible toolholders
• Sold as a single unit, allowing replacement without purchasing a full hardware kit
• Classified as an insert screw type within the indexable tooling hardware category
• UNSPSC code 31161500 for industrial procurement and catalog alignment

Compatibility

Designed for use with indexable insert toolholders that accept insert screws as the clamping method. Verify the thread size, head style, and drive type against your specific toolholder specifications before ordering, as insert screws are not universal across all toolholder brands or styles.

Installation Notes

Insert screw replacement should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before servicing any toolholder. Use the correct Torx or hex key driver specified by the toolholder manufacturer to avoid stripping the screw head, and never exceed the torque specification listed in the toolholder documentation. Inspect the toolholder pocket threads before installing a new screw to confirm the seat is clean and undamaged.
