Tool-flo 9HTF74 Flo-lock Tf Clamp Indexable Toolholders

Product Description

The TOOL-FLO 9HTF74 is a TF-style Flo-Lock clamp designed to secure indexable inserts in compatible toolholders used in turning and boring operations. Part of the Flo-Lock series, this clamp provides positive insert retention through a lever-style clamping mechanism that keeps the cutting insert seated under load. It supports both left-hand and right-hand cutting directions, making it a versatile service part for shops running mixed toolholder configurations. Machinists and tool crib technicians handling indexable tooling replacement will find this a direct-fit component for the supported holder families. Weighing 0.01 pounds, it ships as a single-piece unit.

The 9HTF74 is suited for use in CNC turning centers and manual lathes where Flo-Lock-style toolholders are in service. It is compatible with shank-style and flanged toolholder configurations across the FLEL, FLRL, and FLSR series, covering common OD turning and boring applications in both production and job-shop environments. The clamp is interchangeable across left-hand and right-hand holder variants within the supported families, reducing the number of unique spare parts required on hand.

Installation Notes

This clamp is installed and serviced by machinists or toolroom technicians familiar with indexable tooling systems. Before replacing a clamp, ensure the toolholder is removed from the machine and the spindle is fully stopped and locked out per shop lockout/tagout procedures. Use the manufacturer-specified torx or hex key appropriate for the clamp screw - do not overtighten, as clamp screw torque directly affects insert seating and surface finish. Inspect the clamp seat and insert pocket for wear or debris before installing the replacement clamp.
