Kennametal 1096363 Mwln Turning Toolholder 1x1 Shank

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1096363 is a right-hand MWLN-style indexable turning toolholder engineered for negative rake external turning operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Built on the Kenloc series platform, it features a steel shank measuring 1 inch wide by 1 inch tall and an overall length of 5 inches. The holder accepts WN..33. inserts, specifically the WN.. 332 insert style, held in place by a combination clamp and screw system. A negative 5-degree rake angle suits heavy interrupted cuts and general-purpose turning where edge strength is the priority. Installed by CNC machinists and toolroom operators, this holder is a direct drop-in for standard MWLNR-style tooling blocks.

This toolholder is designed for use on manual and CNC lathes where a right-hand cutting direction is required. The 1 inch by 1 inch square shank fits a wide range of standard tool posts and turrets. The back-of-bar to cutting edge dimension of 1.25 inches and a head length of 1 inch keep the insert positioned predictably in the cut. The 3/8 inch insert inscribed circle size makes it compatible with a common and widely stocked insert family, reducing insert procurement complexity for production and job-shop environments alike.
