Kennametal 1106668 Cap Screw Indexables T30 Torx M6x1

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1106668 is a cap screw designed for securing indexable inserts in milling and turning toolholders. It features a T30 Torx socket head drive and an M6 x 1 thread pitch, providing reliable clamping force to hold indexable carbide inserts firmly during cutting operations. The socket head configuration allows access in confined toolholder pockets where a standard hex or Phillips drive would not fit. Machinists and toolroom technicians install this screw as a direct replacement when insert clamping screws are worn, stripped, or lost during insert changeovers. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 20 units.

This cap screw is used in industrial machining environments where KENNAMETAL indexable milling cutters and turning toolholders require insert clamping hardware. It is appropriate for both CNC production shops and manual lathe and mill applications. The M6 x 1 thread size and T30 Torx drive are matched to KENNAMETAL toolholder clamp seats that call for this specification. It is a consumable maintenance item typically kept on hand in quantity to support fast insert changeovers on the shop floor.

Compatibility

Designed for use with KENNAMETAL indexable toolholders requiring an M6 x 1 cap screw with a T30 Torx drive for clamp-style insert retention in milling and turning applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians as part of routine insert maintenance. Before replacing the clamping screw, ensure the machine spindle is stopped and the toolholder is secured or removed from the turret or spindle. Use a calibrated T30 Torx driver or torx key and apply the torque value specified by KENNAMETAL for the toolholder model being serviced — do not estimate torque by feel, as under-torquing can allow insert movement and over-torquing can strip the thread or crack the insert. Inspect the toolholder pocket and clamp seat for chips or debris before seating the new screw.
