Kennametal 2504012 Dvvn Indexable Turning Toolholder

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 2504012 is a DVVN-style indexable turning toolholder designed for use with VN..33. series inserts in general-purpose CNC and manual lathe turning operations. Built on a 0.75 x 0.75 inch steel shank with a 5-inch overall length, this toolholder is configured for neutral hand orientation and operates with a negative 14-degree rake angle. The Kenclamp insert holding method provides secure clamping during interrupted and continuous cuts. It weighs 0.93 pounds and is suited to shops and toolrooms running standard insert-based turning setups.

This toolholder fits into typical OD turning stations on turret lathes and CNC turning centers where a 3/4 inch square shank is the standard interface. The neutral hand configuration allows mounting on either side of a turret or in straight-ahead turning positions. It accepts VN..33. inserts with a 3/8 inch inscribed circle, making it compatible with the VN.. 332 insert designation. Machinists and toolroom technicians installing this holder will find it suits both production and job-shop turning applications where negative-rake tooling is specified for harder workpiece materials or heavier chip loads.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Ensure the lathe or turning center is fully powered down and the turret is locked before mounting or removing the toolholder. Secure the shank in the tool block to the machine manufacturer's specified clamping torque using appropriate hex keys. Verify insert seating and clamp integrity before resuming cutting operations.
