Pafana NNBE 1616 S20 NOZ TOK.ISO 6 R turning toolholder ISO6R1616P20

Pafana NNBE 1616 S20 NOZ TOK.ISO 6 R turning toolholder ISO6R1616P20 is a lathe external turning toolholder designed to accept ISO6 indexable inserts. The toolholder secures inserts with a reliable clamping mechanism and provides the correct geometry for finishing and profiling operations on shafts and turned parts. Intended for workshop and production environments, this turning toolholder supports repeatable tool positioning and stable cutting performance when paired with compatible inserts.

Advantages

The Pafana NNBE 1616 S20 NOZ TOK.ISO 6 R offers precise insert seating and robust clamping to minimise insert movement during cutting. Its standard shank size and orientation are suitable for conventional lathe toolposts and turrets, ensuring straightforward mounting and alignment. The toolholder is manufactured to maintain consistent geometrical relationships between the insert edge and the workpiece, which helps achieve uniform surface finishes and dimensional accuracy in external turning operations.

Suitable for

• External finishing and profiling on turned shafts
• Small to medium batch production on lathes
• Workshop repair and maintenance turning tasks
• Operations requiring indexable ISO6 inserts for predictable tool life

Key specifications

• Tool type: external turning toolholder for indexable inserts
• Compatible insert system: ISO6 indexable inserts
• Shank size and form: 16 x 16 mm square shank (metric nominal size)
• Insert seat orientation: right-hand turning configuration
• Clamping method: mechanical clamp securing the insert for stable cutting
• Application: finishing and profiling on lathe external faces and diameters

How to use

Mount the Pafana turning toolholder securely in the lathe toolpost or turret appropriate for a 16 x 16 mm shank, ensuring correct axial and radial alignment. Fit a compatible ISO6 indexable insert into the seat so the cutting edge aligns with the intended cutting plane, then tighten the clamp to the manufacturer-recommended torque. Set cutting parameters (speed, feed, depth of cut) according to the insert grade and workpiece material, and perform a test cut to verify geometry and clearance before proceeding with production cuts.

Usage recommendations

Use inserts specified for finishing or profiling and select grades suited to the workpiece material to optimise surface finish and tool life. Regularly inspect the clamping surfaces and replace inserts when wear or chipping affects accuracy. Maintain correct torque on the clamp fastener and check toolholder seating in the toolpost before critical operations.
