Iscar 7001923 Indexable Insert Extractor Key Drive

Product Description

The ISCAR 7001923 is a key-drive extractor designed for removing and seating indexable inserts in grooving and parting toolholders. This small, purpose-built tool applies controlled force through a key-drive interface to eject inserts from their pockets without damaging the seat or the cutting edge. It is used by machinists and toolroom technicians working with ISCAR DGAMM-style toolholders. The extractor weighs 0.05 pounds and is sold as a single unit. Having the correct extractor on hand reduces insert handling time and prevents seat damage caused by improvised removal tools.

This extractor is intended for use in metalworking environments where grooving and parting operations are performed on CNC lathes, turning centers, and manual lathes. It is compatible with DGAMM-style toolholder bodies and is used during insert changes to properly dislodge indexable inserts from the clamping pocket. The tool is particularly useful in high-volume production settings where quick, repeatable insert changes are critical to maintaining consistent tool geometry and minimizing downtime.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by machinists during routine insert indexing or replacement — no electrical lockout is required, but machine spindle rotation must be stopped and the turret or toolpost must be stationary before performing any insert change. Use only the correct key-drive extractor specified for the toolholder to avoid damaging the insert pocket seat. Do not use pliers, screwdrivers, or other improvised tools as substitutes.
