Kennametal 5956449 Indexable Cutoff Toolholder Right Hand

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 5956449 is an indexable cutoff toolholder designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Built to the Beyond Evolution series standard, it accepts EG0200M02P02 inserts secured by a clamp-style insert holding method. The toolholder features a 1 x 1 inch square shank and delivers a maximum depth of cut of 1.024 inches (26 mm), making it well suited for moderate-diameter bar stock and tubing. Overall length is 6 inches (152.4 mm). Right-hand orientation means the cutting action runs toward the spindle on standard setups. Machinists and tool crib personnel working with CNC turning applications will find this a direct-fit holder for Beyond Evolution insert inventory.

This toolholder is intended for use on CNC lathes handling workpiece diameters up to 2.048 inches (52 mm). The EVSM toolholder style positions the blade close to the centerline for stable cutoff performance on small to mid-range bar diameters. Typical install scenarios include production turning shops running high-volume cutoff cycles on steel, stainless, and similar materials where insert indexability reduces downtime. It is installed by machinists or tooling setup technicians as part of a turret or gang tooling configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or tooling technician. Power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the toolholder from the turret. Confirm shank seating and turret clamp torque per the machine tool builder specifications before running. Inspect the insert clamp and seating pocket for chips or debris before indexing or replacing inserts to prevent seating errors that can affect part accuracy or damage the holder.
