Neither description of the insert or the tool on CTC’s website gives the spec for the correct screw. The insert description gives a screw part # that isn’t found anywhere… CTC doesn’t list it, nor does the insert manufacturer. "
The insert manufacturer, Lamina, doesn't show screw info on their page either. I have e-mailed CTC, Lamina, and Fastenal, but no replies yet. I will probably end up re-tapping the tool holder to a more common size thread, and custom turning a SHCS screw to fit the insert.

The difficult takes me a while, the impossible takes a little longer.
