Seco 00018590 Lock Pin Indexable Turning Tools

Product Description

The SECO 00018590 is a lock pin designed for use with indexable turning tools in metal-cutting and machining operations. This pin secures cutting inserts and clamps in place on indexable tool bodies, maintaining precise positioning during turning operations. Proper seating of the lock pin is critical to preventing insert movement under cutting loads, which directly affects dimensional accuracy and tool life. Machinists and toolroom technicians working with CNC lathes and manual turning centers rely on replacement lock pins like the 00018590 to keep tooling assemblies operating correctly.

This lock pin is suited for indexable turning tool setups where insert retention hardware requires replacement due to wear, loss, or damage. It is compatible with clamp and insert assemblies used in standard turning applications. The industry standard number 18590 identifies this pin across tooling catalogs, making cross-referencing straightforward when sourcing replacement hardware for existing tool bodies.

Installation Notes

Lock pin replacement should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician with the spindle stopped and the machine fully powered down. Inspect the tool body seat and clamp for wear before installing the replacement pin. Do not force the pin into position; ensure the tool body bore is clean and free of chips or debris before seating the new pin.
