Seco 00018575 Lock Pin Indexable Turning Tools

Product Description

The SECO 00018575 is a lock pin designed to secure inserts and clamps in indexable turning tool assemblies. Lock pins maintain precise insert positioning during cutting operations, preventing movement that could compromise tool geometry or surface finish. This fastener is a small but critical component in indexable tooling systems, ensuring that carbide inserts remain seated correctly under cutting loads. It is installed and serviced by machinists and toolroom technicians as part of routine insert indexing and replacement procedures.

The 00018575 lock pin is used in indexable turning tool holders where clamp-style or pin-lock insert retention is specified. It is suited for production turning environments in both job shop and manufacturing floor settings. This pin is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 10 pieces, making it appropriate for stocking as a consumable replacement fastener alongside inserts and clamps.
