Seco 00018201 Indexable Screw Port Compatible

Product Description

The SECO 00018201 is an indexable screw designed for use with port-style tooling systems. Indexable screws serve as the mechanical fasteners that clamp and secure replaceable cutting inserts within indexable toolholders and cutting tool bodies. This screw corresponds to industry standard number 18201 and is intended for installation and servicing by machinists, toolroom technicians, and CNC setup professionals working with indexable cutting tool assemblies. Proper clamping torque and screw condition are critical to insert retention and cutting performance.

This screw is suited for indexable tooling applications where port-type insert clamping is used. Port-style clamping systems are common in turning, milling, and boring tool bodies that require secure, repeatable insert seating. The 00018201 is a direct-replacement screw for field servicing of toolholders when existing screws are worn, stripped, or lost during insert changes. It is sold individually per package.

Key Features

• Conforms to industry standard number 18201 for consistent fitment
• Compatible with port-style indexable toolholders
• Direct replacement for worn or damaged clamping screws
• Individual package quantity allows single-unit replacement

Compatibility

Designed for use with port-style indexable tooling per industry standard 18201. Verify compatibility with your specific toolholder model before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the cutting tool is fully removed from the machine spindle and all motion has stopped before servicing insert clamping screws. Use the correct Torx or hex key driver specified by the toolholder manufacturer to avoid stripping the screw head. Do not overtighten, as improper torque can damage the insert pocket or screw threads.
