Kennametal 1022527 Indexable Screw Hex Socket 3/32 Inch

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1022527 is a replacement clamp screw designed for indexable cutting tools used in milling and turning applications. This hardware secures indexable inserts to their toolholders via a 3/32 inch hex socket drive, providing the clamping force needed to keep inserts seated and stable during machining operations. The small form factor and precise thread engagement make it a direct-fit consumable for maintaining indexable tooling systems. Machinists and toolroom technicians keep a supply of these screws on hand because clamp screws are subject to wear and damage during routine insert changes.

This screw is intended for use in indexable milling and turning toolholders that use clamp-style insert retention with a 3/32 inch hex socket drive. It is a maintenance and replacement item for production machine shops, job shops, and toolrooms running indexable insert tooling. Sold in packages of 10, it is suited for operations where frequent insert indexing or changeover is standard practice and having spare hardware on hand reduces downtime.

• Compatible with clamp-style indexable insert retention systems
• Suitable for both milling and turning indexable toolholder configurations
• Sold in a 10-piece package to support ongoing tooling maintenance

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement clamp screw for indexable milling and turning toolholders that use a 3/32 inch hex socket drive and clamp-style insert retention. Refer to your toolholder documentation or contact KENNAMETAL directly to confirm fitment for your specific toolholder model.

Installation Notes

Clamp screw replacement on indexable toolholders is a standard toolroom task performed by machinists or tooling technicians. Always power down and lock out the machine before servicing any toolholder mounted in a spindle or turret. Use a calibrated hex key of the correct 3/32 inch size and follow the toolholder manufacturer torque specifications for clamp screw seating. Do not reuse visibly damaged or stripped screws, as improper clamping can result in insert movement during cutting.
