Kennedy® Brazed Tip Turning and Boring Tools

Manufactured in three standard grades. (All sizes are nominal). Manufactured to ISO DIN BHMA Standards.
P40:
Roughing to heavy roughing of steel and steel castings using heavy feeds and low to medium cutting speeds. Also used under unfavourable conditions, particularly where intermittent cutting is involved. This grade is also suitable for planing operations and for machining manganese steel.
P30:
Carbide tipped tools are suitable for heavy duty turning and boring on all classes of steel. Suitable also for interrupted cutting and machining at low speeds and heavy feeds.
K20:
General-purpose tools for most applications. Ideal for machining cast iron, non-ferrous metals, bakelite etc. Combines wear resistance with toughness when rough turning at moderate cutting speeds. Suitable for high feed rates.

For all dimensional and technical specifications please refer to our catalogue.

Cranked Round Nosed Turning Tools

Right Hand. Available in Grades P30 and K20.

Dormer Stub Drills

The A120 HSS stub drill from Dormer has a standard helix right hand spiral. The rigidity of these Dormer stub drill bits allow them to be used in portable drills, turret and automatic lathes.

Indexa-Seiki? Threading Toolholders

An "On Edge" three cornered vertical threading system for use in circumstances where other threading systems would foul the component or lathe centre. Toolholders have a helix angle incorporated into the pocket which satisfies the majority of applications. The relationship between diameter and pitch is shown at the foot of the page and illustrates the parameters within which this threading system will be applicable.

Vertical Threading

Kennedy® Thredfloer Fluteless Taps

Form rather than cut the thread in almost any ductile material. These include aluminium, brass, copper, carbon steels, zinc and magnesium alloys and even some stainless steels. The material is "cold formed" into the relevant thread and has the advantage of being a full form thread unlike normal cut tapped holes. This make the thread stronger. The forming operation does not create chips so swarf contamination and blockage is illiminated and tap breakage reduced. Because there is no consideration for chip evacuation, Thredfloer taps can be run at higher cutting speeds and reduced cycle times. Lubrication grooves are a feature of all Thredfloer taps of M3.0 and over. These allow lubrication to reach the end of the tap to maintain tool life and to prevent damage from "Hydraulic Blow Out".

Metric Coarse

HSS - EV. Oxide Finish. Tolerance 6H. Manufactured to DIN 371.

Starrett Bi-Metal Holesaws Constant Pitch HSS

Bi-Metal Constant Pitch Holesaws have 6 teeth per 25mm/inch with an aggressive cutting action, featuring a HSS cutting edge welded to a tough alloy steel body. The Constant Pitch provides a smooth cut on thinner gauge materials, with minimal tendency to bite or snag on contact with irregular surfaces. Cutting depth 41mm (1 5/8").

Holesaw and Arbor sizes:
14-25mm - use Arbor A4 or K4.
30-210mm - use Arbor A10 or K10.

Kennedy Endmills

Kennedy KC3 throwaway 3* flute endmills are manufactured HSS-Co 5% making them much tougher than HSS. This means that Kennedy endmills can be used at higher speeds and feeds which in turn gives greater productivity.

Kennedy KC3 endmills are available uncoated, TiN coated and TiCN coated.

TiN (Titanium nitride) provides a surface hardness in the region of 2300HV which offers improved wear resistance, tool life and productivity.

TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride) gives a surface hardness in the region of 3000-3500 HV, excellent wear resistance and good heat resistance. This coating is used for the same things as TiN but also for hard steels, stainless, cast iron, brass & bronze.

*Except: 1mm cutters, 2mm and 1/16" ball nose cutters, all of which have two flutes.
