ExploreBefore choosing a configuration
Can I order using only the family name?
Accurate selection requires a compatible insert and holder, geometry, material and cutting conditions.
Why are there no universal cutting parameters?
Speed and feed depend on the specific tool grade, material, clamping and cooling. Check them against the catalogue for the selected version.
What helps when replacing the current tool?
Its designation, actual cutting parameters, tool life, wear photos and a drawing of the machined feature.
