Kennametal 1096067 Mcln Indexable Turning Toolholder

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1096067 is a right-hand MCLN-style indexable turning toolholder designed for negative-rake machining operations on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. Built on the Kenloc series platform, it features a 3/4 inch x 3/4 inch steel shank and accepts CN..43. series inserts secured by a clamp and screw holding method. At 4.5 inches overall length with a head length of 1.2 inches, this toolholder is suited for external turning applications where a 5-degree lead angle and rigid insert retention are required. Machinists and toolroom technicians specify this holder for medium to heavy-duty turning passes where insert stability and consistent edge presentation are critical.

This toolholder is intended for external turning operations in production and job-shop environments. It fits turning centers and engine lathes configured for 3/4 inch square shank tooling. The 5-degree lead angle geometry promotes chip flow and reduces radial cutting forces during straight turning and facing operations. The Kenloc clamping system provides secure insert lockdown under interrupted cuts and continuous turning cycles. This holder is installed by machinists and CNC setup technicians working with steel, cast iron, and similar workpiece materials where CN..432 insert geometries are standard.

Key Features

• Right-hand MCLN toolholder style with 5-degree lead angle for controlled chip direction
• Negative rake configuration suited for heavy stock removal and interrupted cutting
• Kenloc clamp and screw insert holding method for rigid, repeatable insert seating
• Accepts CN..43. series inserts with a 1/2 inch inscribed circle
• Steel shank construction for durability under high cutting loads
• No coolant-through — external coolant supply required for wet machining

Compatibility

Designed to accept CN..432 series indexable inserts with a 1/2 inch inscribed circle. Compatible with turning center and engine lathe tool posts configured for 3/4 inch square shank external turning toolholders.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC toolroom technicians. Ensure the machine spindle is locked and all axes are at a safe position before mounting or removing the toolholder from the tool post or turret. Verify insert seating and clamp screw engagement before initiating a cut. Follow the machine manufacturer's torque specifications for turret clamping hardware, and confirm tool centerline height before taking the first pass.
