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.

Kennedy® 2 Flute Double-Ended End Mills Plain Shank Solid Carbide Micrograin

Kennedy Hacksaw Blades Flexible Back Bi-Metal

The perfect combination of shatter resistant spring steel, used as the backing material, and tough, wear-resistant HSS teeth - Electron-beam welded together. Ideal for interrupted cuts in cramped places or where the blade is subject to stress caused by twisting or bending. Provides optimum tooth strength/life and reduced breakage and fracture when compared to traditional all-hard blades. Made to BS 1919 : Part 1: 1993.

Kennedy® High Performance Machine Taps

Made from a super grade high speed steel with extra vanadium content. This has a distinct advantage with taps, by increasing wear resisting properties and extending tool life significantly. These taps are intended for general application where consistent results and improved tool life are important. Threads can be produced in a range of steels, including stainless and cast steels as well as some long chip non-ferrous materials.

Machine Taps Spiral Flute Metric Coarse HSS - EV

With high helix (45°), right hand spiral flutes, designed to pull swarf towards the shank of the tap. Most suitable for blind-hole tapping. Manufactured to BS 949 : Part 4 : 1990 and ISO 529 : 1975. Tolerance 6H.
Oxidised finish (black): special heat treated finish gives resistance to rust and reduces metal to metal friction. Combined with a porous surface that gives optimum lubricant retention, work-generated heat is minimised, giving prolonged cutting edge life. Use on higher carbon steels cast materials high silicon aluminiums.

Machine Taps Spiral Point Metric Coarse HSS - EV

With straight flutes and short fluted helix at point. Ideal for tapping through holes as swarf is directed ahead of the tap. Flutes are narrower than those of taps required to pull swarf towards the shank and act as lubricant channels, giving greater tap rigidity. Manufactured to BS 949: Part 4: 1990 and ISO 529 : 1975. Tolerance 6H.
Bright finish: standard finish for tapping most materials including low silicon aluminiums, brass, mild steels (low volume) stainless, copper.
