Walter 7316620 Indexable Insert Clamp PK265R

Product Description

The WALTER 7316620 is a PK-style clamp designed to secure indexable inserts in compatible cutting tool holders. Indexable clamps like this one hold carbide or cermet inserts firmly in the pocket seat during turning, milling, or boring operations, preventing insert movement under cutting forces. The 7316620 conforms to the PK265R industry standard, making it a direct-fit component for toolholders built to that specification. At 0.04 pounds, it is a lightweight precision component intended for installation and replacement by machinists and toolroom technicians.

This clamp is suited for use in metalworking environments where indexable tooling systems are standard. It is typically found in CNC turning centers, manual lathes, and milling setups that use PK265R-series toolholders. When an insert is indexed or replaced, the clamp is removed, the insert is repositioned or swapped, and the clamp is reinstalled to the specified seating. Shops running high-volume production benefit from keeping spare clamps on hand to minimize changeover time during insert indexing.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Always power down and lock out the machine before accessing the toolholder pocket. Use the correct torx or hex key as required by the toolholder design, and ensure the insert is fully seated in the pocket before tightening the clamp. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the clamp or the insert seating surface.
