Seco 00096165 Indexable Turning Toolholder 1x1 Shank

Product Description

The SECO 00096165 is an indexable turning toolholder designed for cut-off and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Built to the CGIR100 style with a right-hand cutting direction and 0-degree lead angle, this toolholder accepts LC-style inserts in the 1606 size family, secured by a clamp-style insert holding method. The square shank measures 1 inch wide by 1 inch tall with an overall length of 6 inches. The holder is constructed from steel and is part of SECOs Multi-Directional Turning (MDT) series, making it suitable for multi-use setups across a wide range of workpiece materials.

This toolholder is suited for both roughing and finishing passes in cut-off and grooving applications. Its universal primary workpiece material classification covers steel, cast iron, stainless, non-ferrous, and superalloy workpieces. The 0-degree lead angle and right-hand cutting direction make it a straightforward fit for standard right-hand turning setups on conventional or CNC lathes. A maximum depth of cut of 0.8 inches supports moderate to heavy grooving passes. No coolant-through capability is present, so external coolant delivery should be planned accordingly.
