Seco 03181493 Insert Screw T15P Torx Plus M4 Thread

Product Description

The SECO 03181493 is an insert screw designed to secure indexable inserts in turning toolholders. It uses a Torx Plus T15P drive for precise torque application and mates with M4 thread inserts. At 11.00 mm in overall length and weighing approximately 0.012 pounds, this screw is engineered to the industry standard C04011B-T15P, ensuring dimensional consistency across compatible tooling systems. Licensed machinists and CNC setup technicians rely on this type of fastener to maintain insert clamping force and repeatability during turning operations.

This insert screw is used in indexable turning applications where M4-threaded insert pockets require a Torx Plus drive screw. It is a single-piece replacement component intended for maintenance of indexable toolholders in production turning environments, including both light finishing and general-purpose turning setups. Keeping a supply of correctly specified insert screws on hand reduces downtime during insert changes.

Key Features

• Torx Plus T15P drive for precise, slip-resistant torque application
• M4 thread size compatible with standard indexable insert pockets
• 11.00 mm overall length per industry standard C04011B-T15P
• Designed for indexable turning toolholder applications
• Lightweight at 0.012 pounds for minimal toolholder mass impact

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement insert screw for M4-threaded indexable turning toolholders conforming to industry standard C04011B-T15P. Verify thread size and drive type against your specific toolholder documentation before ordering.

Installation Notes

Insert screw replacement is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Always ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing inserts or insert screws. Use a calibrated Torx Plus T15P driver or torque wrench to seat the screw to the toolholder manufacturer's specified torque — do not overtighten, as this can damage the insert pocket threads. Inspect the screw and pocket threads for wear or contamination before installation.
