Kennametal 1020579 Ckm Kenloc Clamp Indexable Neutral

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1020579 is a CKM-style Kenloc clamping component designed to secure indexable inserts in compatible modular toolholders. Part of the Kenloc series, it provides a reliable, repeatable clamping force for neutral-cut turning and boring applications. The clamp is engineered to work with STCM9T9 clamp screws, ensuring proper seating and insert retention during machining operations. Its compact form factor and low weight make it well-suited for modular quick-change setups where consistent insert positioning is critical. Licensed machinists and toolroom technicians working in turning centers and CNC lathes will find this clamp a direct OEM-compatible solution for maintaining insert integrity at the cutting interface.

This clamp is intended for use in modular Kenloc toolholder assemblies running indexable inserts in neutral-cut orientations. It is compatible with KM25MDJNR1130, KM25MDPNN1130, KM25MRGNL0930, and KM25MRGNR0930 complete toolholders, making it a fit for KM25 modular tooling platforms commonly used in production turning operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. The minimum order quantity is 5 units, sold individually per package.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician familiar with modular indexable tooling systems. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before servicing or replacing clamping components. Verify clamp screw compatibility and confirm the insert is properly seated before resuming cutting operations. Do not exceed the recommended torque range specified in the toolholder manufacturer documentation for the STCM9T9 clamp screw.
