Product Features ●Suitable for stainless steels tending to work-harden and sticky, as well as chrome steels and molybdenum steels, through hole use. ●Recommended speed : 5~15m/min

  • In tapping SUS304, SU+SL has more than 3 times longer tool life than SU-PO. Even in 2000 tapping holes, the surface of thread finish is good and the shape of threads is clearly stable.

●Adopting left hand spiral flutes, compared with SU-PO, SU+SL improves the chip ejection and realizes longer tool life.
