Benefits

• Provides less chatter than carbide tipped tools.
• Provides better tool life and a better surface finish.

Applications

• Use for applications where long production runs or heavy duty machining is involved. It is also much easier to re-sharpen.
• Recommended for adverse machining conditions including low surface speeds, interrupted cuts, problem workpiece material and the use of machines with low horsepower capacity or an unstable spindle.
• Have a cutting edge that stands up better than carbide to the low surface speed of small diameter screw-machine jobs.

Features

• Their basic design incorporates a tapered body diameter between the mounting shank and the cutting end, permitting bars to have considerable strength and rigidity while minimizing vibration, throughout a range of speeds and feeds.
• Standard sizes to suit standard tool holders and boring heads.

Technical Data

• Manufactured from cobalt steel.
• Single ended tools.
• Bright and black oxide finishes.
