TungQuad Chamfer Cutter Offers Versatility
Tungaloy Corp.’s TungQuad chamfer cutter series uses compact inserts in a positive, single-sided, square shape that can front-chamfer holes.
Tungaloy Corp.’s TungQuad chamfer cutter series allows multiple types of chamfering operations to be completed with only one cutter. The chamfer cutter uses compact inserts in positive, single-sided, square shape with a cutting edge length of 5.09 mm (0.200”). This enables the same cutter to front-chamfer holes as small as a 6 mm (0.240”) in diameter and back-chamfer holes with 13 mm (0.510”) in diameter, as well as chamfer along the edges.
The cutter uses the existing SDMT05 and SDHT05 TungQuad inserts, in grades AH725, AH140, and TH10, for a variety of workpiece materials. Three types of standard cutter bodies are stocked in diameters of 12-mm, 14-mm and 22-mm shank diameters.
