Seco 00086326 Grooving Cutoff Toolholder Cftr Right Hand

Product Description

The SECO 00086326 is an indexable grooving and cutoff toolholder in the Multi-Directional Turning (MDT) series, designed for external turning operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. The CFTR-style holder accepts LC..1603.. inserts secured by a clamp-style holding method, delivering rigid, repeatable insert positioning during cutoff and grooving passes. Key dimensional parameters include a minimum groove width of 3 mm (0.1181 inches) and a maximum depth of cut of 0.43 inches. The 1 x 1 inch square shank measures 4.35 inches in length and a 6.00-inch overall length. This holder is installed and set up by machinists and CNC toolroom technicians working in production or job-shop environments.

This toolholder is suited for external grooving and cutoff applications on conventional and CNC turning equipment. The MDT series is built for shops requiring versatile tooling that can handle both standard grooving profiles and straight cutoff operations without changing the entire tool assembly. The 1-inch square shank fits standard OD turning tool blocks and quick-change turret positions common in production turning cells. The right-hand designation indicates cutting direction and must be matched to the spindle rotation and turret orientation of the target machine.
