Kennametal 5956542 Indexable Cutoff Toolholder Right Hand

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 5956542 is a right-hand indexable cutoff toolholder designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Built in the Beyond Evolution series, it accepts EG0200M02P02 inserts secured by a clamp-style holding method. The toolholder features a 3/4 x 3/4 inch square shank measuring 4.5 inches in overall length. Maximum depth of cut is 16 mm (0.63 inches) and maximum workpiece diameter is 32 mm (1.26 inches). The EVSM-style head delivers rigid insert support for consistent cut quality. Machinists and CNC setup technicians working in job shops or production environments are the primary installers.

This toolholder is suited for light to medium parting and cutoff work on bar stock up to 32 mm in diameter. The compact head geometry makes it appropriate for close-clearance turning applications where overhanging tool mass must be kept low. The 3/4-inch square shank fits standard lathe tool blocks and quick-change turret stations sized for that shank dimension. Coolant-through capability is not included, so external coolant delivery should be planned accordingly for heat-sensitive workpiece materials.

Key Features

• Right-hand orientation for standard OD turning and cutoff passes
• Clamp-style insert holding for secure, repeatable insert indexing
• Compatible with EG0200M02P02 inserts (Beyond Evolution series)
• 3/4 x 3/4 inch square shank fits common lathe tool blocks

Installation Notes

A licensed machinist or qualified CNC setup technician should install this toolholder following the machine tool manufacturer's torque and clamping specifications for the turret or tool block in use. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or indexing inserts. Confirm shank seating depth and overhang per the machine's tool offset procedure before taking a cut. Never exceed the 32 mm maximum workpiece diameter or 16 mm maximum depth of cut stated for this holder.
