Seco 00096174 Cfmr Indexable Turning Toolholder 1in Shank

Product Description

The SECO 00096174 is a right-hand CFMR-style indexable turning toolholder designed for cut-off and grooving operations on a CNC lathe or manual turning center. It features a 1 inch by 1 inch steel shank and an overall length of 6 inches. The toolholder accepts LC..1603.. series inserts and uses a clamp-style insert holding method for secure, repeatable seating under cutting loads. Built as part of the Multi-Directional Turning (MDT) series, it is rated for universal primary workpiece materials, making it suitable across a wide range of metals and non-metals. Licensed machinists and CNC setup technicians are the primary installers.

This toolholder is suited for both production and job-shop environments where cut-off and grooving work is performed on a right-hand turning setup. The 90-degree lead angle and right-hand cutting direction make it compatible with standard turret and gang-tool configurations. Coolant-through capability supports extended tool life when machining harder or heat-sensitive materials. The multi-use designation allows this holder to accept compatible insert geometries for varied grooving profiles within the LC..1603.. family. Typical applications include external grooving, parting, and related turning operations on bar stock and chucked workpieces.
