Iscar 7060160 Cap Screw Indexables T6 Torx M2 X 0.4

Product Description

The ISCAR 7060160 is a countersunk cap screw designed to secure indexable inserts in threading toolholders. It uses a T6 Torx drive and an M2 x 0.4 thread, making it a precision fastener for the IscarThread series of SI-style toolholders. At 0.2087 inches (5.30 mm) overall length, it is purpose-built for compact insert pockets where standard fasteners will not fit. Licensed HVAC and industrial tooling technicians, machinists, and CNC setup personnel rely on this type of hardware to maintain proper insert clamping force and repeatability during threading operations. It is sold individually but requires a minimum order of 5 units.

This cap screw is used in threading applications on CNC lathes and manual turning centers equipped with SI-style toolholders in the IscarThread series. It is compatible with a wide range of ISCAR indexable threading inserts, including both internal and external thread profiles. Typical install scenarios include routine insert changes, toolholder refurbishment, and replacement of stripped or damaged clamping screws on the shop floor or in the tool crib.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or tooling technicians during indexable insert changes or toolholder servicing. Use only the specified T-6/5 Torx key driver to seat the screw — do not substitute a non-matched driver, as this can strip the Torx socket. Ensure the insert pocket and screw threads are clean and free of chips before reinstalling. Follow the toolholder manufacturer's recommended seating procedure for insert clamping.
