Built on the Kenloc series platform, it accepts TN..332 triangular inserts held in place by a combination clamp and screw insert-holding method. The shank measures 0.75 inches wide by 0.75 inches tall with an overall length of 4.5 inches, making it a compact, rigid choice for medium-duty turning applications. The steel body provides durability under continuous cutting loads, and the -10 degree rake angle is suited for machining harder workpiece materials where negative-geometry inserts deliver better edge strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis toolholder is used in production and job-shop environments where consistent, repeatable indexable-insert turning is required. Its neutral hand orientation allows it to be positioned on either side of the centerline, offering flexibility in tool post or turret arrangements. The 0.375-inch insert inscribed circle matches standard 3\/8-inch TN..332 triangular inserts, which are widely available in coated and uncoated carbide grades. Licensed machinists and CNC lathe operators typically fit this holder in a square shank tool post or a turret block station for facing, straight turning, or light profiling passes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeutral hand orientation provides setup flexibility on most lathe configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNegative rake angle of -10 degrees increases insert edge strength for harder materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClamp and screw insert-holding method ensures rigid, repeatable insert seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.75 x 0.75 inch square shank fits standard tool post and turret blocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccepts TN..332 triangular inserts with a 0.375-inch inscribed circle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel construction withstands continuous cutting forces and interrupted cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with TN..332 triangular indexable inserts. Insert compatibility is confirmed for the TN..332 insert family as specified by the manufacturer.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before mounting or repositioning any toolholder. Torque the clamp screw according to the insert manufacturer's standard procedure for the insert size in use. Confirm tool centerline height and overhang before taking a test cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eToolholder Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: MTEN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHand of Holder\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: -10 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack of Bar to Cutting Edge\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Inscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: TN..332\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp and Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Kenloc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eToolholder Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6958 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: KENNAMETAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1096352\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51733009793330,"sku":"1096352","price":155.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a4615d5ef39647e10e466a46136b8506.jpg?v=1788750387","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-1096352-neutral-mten-turning-toolholder","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
