Kennametal 1095983 Mwln Turning Toolholder 0.75in Shank

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1095983 is a right-hand MWLN-style indexable turning toolholder engineered for negative-rake external turning operations on CNC and manual lathes. It features a 3/4 inch by 3/4 inch square shank and an overall length of 4.5 inches, making it a compact, rigid platform for general-purpose turning. The holder accepts WN..43. series inserts secured by a clamp-and-screw holding method, which delivers consistent insert seating and repeatable cutting geometry. A -5 degree rake angle is built into the pocket design, optimizing cutting forces for harder workpiece materials. This toolholder is part of the Kenloc series and is constructed from steel for durability in production turning environments. Installation and setup are performed by machinists and CNC setup technicians.

The 1095983 is suited for external turning, facing, and profiling operations in both production shop and job-shop settings. Its 3/4 inch square shank fits standard tool blocks and quick-change toolpost systems designed for that shank size. The 5-degree lead angle and 1.13-inch head length provide adequate clearance for most straight and slight-taper turning passes. Coolant-through capability is not supported by this holder. It is intended for right-hand cutting direction only and should not be used in left-hand or neutral orientations.

Key Features

• Right-hand MWLN toolholder style with -5 degree negative rake angle for stable cutting on harder materials
• Accepts WN..43. series inserts (complete compatibility: WN.. 432) using clamp-and-screw retention
• 3/4 inch by 3/4 inch square shank for rigid setup in standard tool blocks
• 4.5 inch overall length with 1.13 inch head length for accessibility in typical turning setups
• Kenloc series steel construction for rigidity and long service life
• No coolant-through passages, simplifying setup where flood coolant is used externally

Compatibility

Designed to accept WN..43. series inserts, with complete insert compatibility noted as WN.. 432. This holder is intended for right-hand external turning applications using a 3/4 inch square shank tool block or quick-change toolpost of matching size.

Installation Notes

This toolholder is installed and indexed by machinists or CNC setup technicians. Before changing or seating an insert, shut down spindle rotation and confirm the machine is in a safe, locked-out state. Use the appropriate Torx or hex key specified by KENNAMETAL for the clamp screw to secure the WN-style insert without over-torquing the screw seat. Inspect the insert pocket and clamp contact surfaces for chips or debris before each insert change to maintain accurate seating and prevent premature holder wear.
