Kennametal 3575847 Indexable Insert Clamping Screw

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 3575847 is a clamping screw designed to secure indexable inserts in place during cutting tool operation. These screws are a critical fastener component in indexable tooling assemblies, maintaining insert seating and position under the high mechanical forces generated during turning, milling, or boring operations. Replacement of worn or damaged clamping screws is a routine maintenance task performed by toolroom technicians and machining professionals. At 0.03 pounds, this is a compact, precision fastener built to Kennametal tooling specifications.

This clamping screw is used in indexable tooling systems found in metalworking environments including CNC turning centers, machining centers, and manual lathes. It is suited for shops running production or job-work applications where indexable insert holders are in regular use. Keeping spare clamping screws on hand reduces downtime when a screw is lost or damaged during an insert change.

Key Features

• Precision-machined fastener designed to Kennametal indexable tooling standards
• Lightweight at 0.03 pounds for easy handling during insert changes
• Designed for consistent insert clamping force and repeatable seating
• Direct OEM replacement minimizes fitment risk versus generic alternatives

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement clamping screw for Kennametal indexable insert tool holders requiring part number 3575847.

Installation Notes

Clamping screw replacement is performed by toolroom technicians or machining professionals. Before replacing the screw, ensure the machine spindle is stopped and the tool is secured or removed from the turret or spindle. Use the correct Torx or hex key driver specified for the tool holder to avoid fastener damage. Do not substitute screws of a different thread pitch or head geometry, as improper clamping can lead to insert ejection during a cut.
