Machining Recommendations

  • Excellent tool stability
  • 4 indexing options when using the SHREDMILL insert
  • Chips split into small pieces and 8 indexing options when using the round one
  • Optimal chip flow with easy evacuation,
  • Available are several chipformers and rake configurations,

even from deep cavities designed for a large variety of workpiece materials

  • High tooth load capability, up to 8 mm depth-of-cut, which will significantly reduce machining time
  • Small cutting forces, therefore the required machining power is low 12˚ RCMT 1607-FW
