Sumitomo 2G00153 Insert Screw 15IP Torx M4 Wavemill

Product Description

The SUMITOMO 2G00153 is a flat-head insert screw designed to secure indexable inserts in compatible end mill toolholders. The screw uses a Torx drive interface sized at 15IP and an M4 thread for positive clamping force with minimal risk of fastener cam-out during tool changes. Overall length is 8.00 millimeters, making it a compact, low-profile fastener suited to the tight clearances typical of indexable milling bodies. This screw is part of the WaveMill series and is installed by machinists and toolroom technicians during routine insert changes on CNC machining centers and manual mills.

This insert screw is used in indexable end mill applications where WaveMill series toolholders require periodic insert replacement. The M4 Torx drive design is common in high-production milling environments where quick insert indexing is critical to minimizing machine downtime. Sold individually per package, with a minimum order quantity of 10 units, making it practical to stock as a consumable alongside replacement inserts.

Key Features

• Torx drive size 15IP reduces cam-out risk during insert changes
• M4 thread provides consistent clamping torque for indexable inserts
• Flat head profile fits flush within the insert pocket
• 8.00 mm overall length suits compact indexable end mill bodies
• Part of the WaveMill series for consistent fitment across the toolholder family

Compatibility

Designed for use with WaveMill series indexable end mill toolholders requiring M4 Torx insert screws. Compatible with indexable inserts seated in WaveMill series tool bodies. Verify toolholder documentation to confirm 15IP Torx drive and M4 thread requirement before installation.

Installation Notes

Insert screw installation and replacement is performed by machinists or toolroom technicians. De-energize and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts or fasteners. Use the correct 15IP Torx key to seat the screw without overloading the drive socket. Do not exceed the toolholder manufacturer's recommended seating torque, and inspect the thread condition of the tool body pocket before installing a new screw.
