Part of the Kenloc series, it uses a clamp-and-screw insert holding method to secure DN..43. style inserts with a 1\/2-inch inscribed circle. The shank measures 1 inch wide by 1 inch tall, with an overall length of 6 inches and a head length of 1.24 inches. Constructed from steel, this toolholder is built for stable, repeatable turning operations in production and job shop environments. Licensed machinists and CNC operators are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis toolholder is suited for external turning applications where a left-hand cutting direction is required, such as turning toward the tailstock or specific facing operations. The 3-degree lead angle and negative rake configuration work well with harder workpiece materials where insert strength and edge stability are priorities. It is a single-use toolholder — not a multi-use tool — and does not include coolant-through capability. Typical applications include general-purpose OD turning on steel, cast iron, and similar materials in both prototype and production runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLeft-hand MDJN toolholder style with 3-degree lead angle for defined cutting geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAccepts DN..43. inserts (1\/2-inch inscribed circle) secured by clamp and screw method\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNegative rake configuration for increased insert strength on demanding materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKenloc series steel construction for rigidity and dimensional consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 x 1 inch square shank fits standard lathe tool posts and turrets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-inch overall length with 1.25-inch back-of-bar to cutting edge dimension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned to accept DN..43. inserts with a complete insert compatibility designation of DN.. 432.
