Kennametal 1097560 Threading Toolholder 1x1 Inch Shank

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1097560 is an indexable threading toolholder from the Top Notch series, designed for both internal and external threading operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. The right-hand holder accepts N.2L inserts secured by a clamp-style holding method, providing stable, repeatable insert positioning under cutting loads. The shank measures 1 inch wide by 1 inch tall, with an overall length of 5 inches. A maximum depth of cut of 0.138 inches and a head length of 0.5 inches make this holder well suited for precision threading work. Licensed machinists and CNC turning operators are the primary users of this toolholder.

The 1097560 is built for threading applications in production and job-shop turning environments. It handles both internal and external thread profiles with a single holder, reducing the number of tools required in the turret. The back-of-bar to cutting edge dimension is 1.25 inches, which is an important setup reference when boring bars or turret clearance is a factor. Typical applications include threading on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces where consistent thread form and insert indexability are required.

Compatibility

Designed for use with N.2L series Top Notch indexable threading inserts. Verify turret pocket size and orientation before installation to confirm fitment with your specific machine setup.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Power down and lock out the machine before seating or removing the toolholder from the turret. Confirm shank clearance and turret pocket tolerance before torquing the clamping screws. Follow the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for tool projection and overhang limits to prevent chatter during threading passes.
