F3P Chipformer Double-sided insert with 1.7 a positive rack angle to
0.1 6° 12.5° reduce cutting forces for
finish machining on steel.
F3M Chipformer Double-sided insert with a positive rake angle for finish machining 0.15 15° on stainless steel. Its unique deflector geometry with a wavy surface prevents chip hammering.
| SF Chipformer | 1.5 A unique super-finishing | |
| chipformer that controls chip | ||
| 0.6 | flow at very low feeds and | |
| cutting depths. Designed | ||
| 18˚ | to reduce crater wear. | |
| NF Chipformer | Double-sided for semi-finishing | |
| and finishing applications. Low | ||
| 1.42 | cutting forces are due to a very | |
| 4º | sharp edge and positive rake. |
0.4
WF Chipformer 1.7 8˚ 0.1
Wiper geometry for high feed finishing on soft and gummy materials. Small depths of cut.
VL Chipformer High positive rake and a special edge preparation used 3.3 for rough and finish turning on high temperature alloys. 16° 0.47 Excellent performance on parts such as automotive valves.
| M3P Chipformer | Double-sided insert for |
| medium machining on steel | |
| .053 | |
| 0.1 with a reinforced cutting | |
| edge to increase tool life. | |
| 11° | |
| M3M Chipformer | Double-sided insert for medium |
| 11° machining on stainless steel with | |
| 0.2 | |
| a reinforced cutting edge that | |
| prevents notch wear at | |
| tight radii to increase tool life. | |
| TF Chipformer | Double-sided positive rake angles to |
prevent strain hardening. The rake angle varies along the edge to a negative angle which prevents chipping. Special design reduces cratering.
Used for carbon and alloy steel, stainless steel and high-temp alloys.
