Kennametal 1019940 Cap Screw Indexables 7/64 Hex Socket

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1019940 is a cap screw designed specifically for indexable tooling systems used in milling and turning applications. It features a hex socket drive with a 7/64 inch socket size, providing positive engagement and reliable torque transfer during tool setup and insert changes. The socket head profile allows access in tight toolholder geometries where a standard external-drive fastener would not seat properly. This screw is used to secure clamps that hold indexable inserts in place on the toolholder body. Machinists and toolroom technicians install these during routine insert indexing and replacement procedures on CNC and manual machine tools.

This cap screw is suited for use in production machining environments where indexable milling cutters and turning toolholders require frequent insert changes. It is compatible with clamp-style insert retention systems, making it a standard consumable hardware item for shops running high-volume turning or milling operations. The small package quantity supports individual replacement needs as well as bench-stock replenishment for toolroom inventory.

Key Features

• Hex socket drive with 7/64 inch socket size for positive wrench engagement
• Socket head type allows use in recessed or close-clearance clamping configurations
• Compatible with clamp-style insert retention hardware on indexable toolholders
• Applicable to both milling and turning indexable tool systems
• Lightweight at 0.05 pounds per unit, minimizing added mass to toolholder assemblies

Compatibility

Designed for use with clamp-style indexable toolholders in milling and turning applications. Specific toolholder model compatibility should be verified against KENNAMETAL toolholder documentation prior to ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of indexable clamp screws should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician using a calibrated hex key of the correct 7/64 inch size. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before servicing any indexable toolholder. Avoid using impact drivers or excessive torque, as overtightening can strip the socket head or damage the clamp seat. Follow the toolholder manufacturer's recommended torque procedure for clamp screw installation.
