Dimple breaker Indexable inserts l A positive rake angle encourages good chip
TME type for external control and reduces cutting resistance. threading l Two tier dimple-style chip breakers evacuate chip smoothly and easily.
l M-class tolerance reduces insert cost. New sintered threading insert with special dimple shaped chip breaker l Four available grades cover a wider range of applications.
