Kennametal 3094010 Cap Screw Indexable T7 Torx M2.5

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 3094010 is a cap screw designed for securing indexable cutting inserts on toolholders and boring bars used in metal-cutting operations. It features a T7 Torx drive and M2.5 thread, providing the precise clamping torque needed to hold inserts firmly during turning, milling, and boring applications. At 6.00 millimeters in overall length, the screw is sized to fit standard indexable insert pockets. Machining professionals and toolroom technicians rely on OEM-specification fasteners like this one to maintain insert seating accuracy and prevent insert movement under cutting loads. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 5 units.

This cap screw is intended for use in CNC turning centers, manual lathes, milling machines, and boring setups where indexable carbide or cermet inserts are mounted in compatible toolholders. It is a direct replacement or service spare for tooling that uses M2.5 Torx cap screws at the insert clamping pocket. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and CNC setup personnel routinely stock these screws as consumable hardware, since they are subject to wear, cross-threading, and loss during insert changes.

Key Features

• T7 Torx drive for precise torque application during insert clamping
• M2.5 thread size matches standard indexable insert pocket specifications
• 6.00 millimeter overall length for correct pocket depth engagement
• OEM-style replacement hardware for KENNAMETAL indexable tooling systems
• Lightweight at approximately 0.001 pounds per unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement cap screw for indexable toolholders and insert pockets requiring an M2.5 thread, T7 Torx drive fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician familiar with indexable tooling systems. Before replacing the insert screw, ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the toolholder is removed or secured. Use a calibrated T7 Torx driver or insert key and apply only the torque specified by the toolholder manufacturer for M2.5 clamping screws. Do not reuse visibly damaged or deformed screws, as compromised threads can cause insert movement during cutting.
