Iscar 7000216 Cap Screw T15 Torx M4 Indexable Toolholder

Product Description

The ISCAR 7000216 is a countersunk-head cap screw designed to secure indexable inserts in compatible toolholders used in face and shell milling applications. Featuring an M4 thread size and a T15 Torx drive, this screw provides reliable clamping torque without the risk of cam-out associated with hex drives. The countersunk head profile seats flush with the toolholder pocket, keeping the cutting geometry unobstructed. At 12.00 millimeters in overall length, it is sized specifically for the H490 F90AX-12 toolholder family and H490 ANKX 12 insert series. Licensed machinists and toolroom technicians working in production or job-shop environments stock these screws as consumable hardware alongside their indexable insert inventory.

This cap screw is intended for use in face mill and shell mill toolholders that accept indexable carbide inserts. The primary application is the H490 F90AX-12 toolholder paired with H490 ANKX 12 inserts, making it a direct fit for ISCAR H490 platform tooling commonly found in horizontal and vertical machining centers. Shops running high-feed or shoulder milling operations with this insert family should keep an adequate quantity of these screws on hand, as insert changes and screw wear are routine in production environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by toolroom technicians or machinists using a calibrated T15 Torx driver or torque wrench with a T15 bit. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts or replacing clamping screws. Always inspect the screw threads and toolholder pocket threads for wear or damage before re-use, and replace screws that show any signs of thread deformation or head damage. Do not substitute screws of a different thread pitch, length, or drive type, as improper hardware can result in insert movement or ejection during cutting.
