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.

Straight Recessing Tools

Available in Grades P40, P30 and K20.

Guhring Jobber Drills Steam Tempered HSS

Suitable for drilling steel, cast steel, alloyed and unalloyed, grey cast iron, spheroidal iron, sintered powder metal, German silver and graphite. Manufactured to BS328/DIN338RN.

Black Finish (W-Finish)
This is the most common surface finish and is the result of a steam tempering operation in which steam is passed over the product during a controlled tempering cycle, producing a black oxide layer. Black tools are generally recommended for ferrous applications where the oxide layer aids chip flow, helps to dissipate heat by retaining some coolant on the tool surface and also helps to prevent the tool from staining.

Series 205

Guhring Production Jobber Drills HSS-Co 5%

Rigid, high heat resistant drill with large helix angle of 35. Suited for titanium and titanium alloys, stainless steels and heat resisting austenitic steels. TiN coated gives greater wear resistance and longer tool life. Limited suitability for special alloys such as Hastelloy, Inconel, Nimonic etc. Manufactured to DIN338.

ISCAR?s new Single-Ended Insert for Parting With an Improved Clamping Method

TAG Insert Features
* Very rigid clamping in a tangentially oriented pocket.
* Enables machining at very high feed rates and provides excellent straightness and surface finish.
* Recommended for parting large diameter parts and for * Offers a free, unobstructed chip flow, since there is no upper jaw as in the other clamping systems (very important in deep grooving and parting applications.
* The combination of tangential clamping and free chip flow results in improved tool and insert life time.
* Provides a solution to the problem of inserts being pulled out during retraction.

The TAG inserts are available with the familiar J- and C-Type chipformers, with neutral and angular frontal cutting edges. The new tools are equipped with a user-friendly clamping and extraction device. The TANG-GRIP family includes square shank tools, blades and inserts in 1.4 - 9.5mm widths in the most advanced IC830 and IC808 SUMO TEC grades. The blades are in standard siuzes which fit ISCAR's standard blocks.

Tang-Grip? TAG R/L-J/JS Parting & Grooving Inserts

First choice for soft materials, parting of tubes, small diameters and thin-walled parts. Cutting edge with positive rake. General applications on low carbon steel, alloy steel, austinitic stainless steel. Low-to-medium feed.

IC830 Grade Description:
(P20-P50/M20-M40/K15-K40/ S15-S40) PVD TiAlN coated tough grade followed by a special SUMO TEC surface treatment. Suitable for milling stainless steel, high temperature alloys and other alloy steels. Recommended for interrupted cut and heavy operations.

Guhring Machine Chucking Reamers Intermediate Diameter HSS-E

Available in diameters ranging from 2mm to 10mm in increments of 0.01mm. Made from HSS-E steel with a bright finish, left hand spiral flute. For all ferrous and non-ferrous metals and hard and soft plastics. For use on CNC machines, producing high quality reamed holes. Manufactured to DIN 212 and DIN 2172 section 1.

Shank diameter equals cutting diameter - 0.025mm.
dia 2.00 - dia 2.65 / dia 2.66 - dia 10.00 H9.

Diameter Tolerances (to H7)
Up to 5.5mm: plus 0.004mm minus 0.000mm
Above 5.5mm: plus 0.005mm minus 0.000mm.

Code numbers are determined by the nominal diameter. Delete the decimal point; create a four figure number by preceding the figures with a zero, if required. All codes finish with the letter A, i.e. 3.60 becomes 0360A.

Kennametal Indexable Turning Inserts

Grade Description: KC850 grade is equivalent to the following grades M25-M45, P25-P45. A tri-phase coating on an extra strong, cobalt-enriched substrate makes this Kennametal CNMG insert suitable for general purpose machining of many work piece materials. With the advent of higher machine tool spindle speeds, today it finds its best application in heavy cutting of low, medium, and high carbon steels, as well as medium hardness alloy and tool steels. Excellent thermal and mechanical shock resistance makes grade KC850 ideally suited for difficult applications with interruptions.

For all technical specifications and tool holders please refer to our catalogue.

Coventry Type Chaser Dies

Coventry high speed steel chaser dies are ideal for batch work or continuous production of threaded steel bar.

Sherwood Taps

Sherwood HSS Taps are the general purpose option for thread cutting in most materials including steel, some stainless steels, cast irons and non-ferrous materials such as Aluminium, Brass and many others.

Manufactured with precision ground flutes for producing accurate thread forms, Sherwood Taps are available in all the popular thread forms and as straight Flute `Hand` Taps in 3 leads, Fluteless, Spiral Flute, or Spiral Point Machine Taps and also Long Series.

Sherwood Tap dimensions conform to ISO529 apart from NPT Forms which conform to ANSI 94.9. Straight Flute and Fluteless Taps are manufactured with a standard Bright Finish whereas the Machine Taps have an Oxidised Finish for best results dissipating the heat build-up associated with these applications.

Thread Forms are Class 2 medium fit tolerance.

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

Tap Set Metric Fine Straight Flute Ground Thread HSS

Sherwood HSS taper taps are used to start cutting the thread they is tapered back from the end 6 to 10 threads before a fully threaded diameter is reached this allows the tap to be positioned easily and correctly before it starts to cut the thread.

The Second tap is used after the taper tap has cut threads into the hole as far as possible. It tapers back 3 or 4 threads before full thread diameter is reached.

The Plug tap cuts threads to the bottom of a blind hole. It is only necessary to use the full set of taps when a blind hole is to be tapped.

Each set of Sherwood taps contain one taper, second and plug lead tap.
