Kennametal 1023224 Modular Turning Profiling Head KM32

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1023224 is a modular turning profiling head designed for external turning and profiling operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Part of the Kenloc series, it features a KM32 modular interface for rigid, repeatable toolholder connections. The head projects 35 mm (1.378 inches) from the spindle face and positions the cutting edge 22 mm (0.866 inches) from center. It is configured for right-hand cutting direction and delivers through-coolant capability, directing coolant directly to the cutting zone for improved chip evacuation and tool life. Installation and setup are handled by machining professionals and CNC setup technicians.

This profiling head is suited for external turning, contouring, and profiling on small-to-medium diameter workpieces in production machining environments. The KM32 interface is commonly used on tooling platforms requiring compact, high-rigidity modular connections. The head accepts CN.. style inserts, including CN.. 120408 and CN.. 432 geometries, making it compatible with a range of insert grades and chipbreaker styles for ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It is appropriate for both job shop and high-volume production settings.
