Technical Notes:

  • HSS-PM powder metallurgy construction provides superior wear resistance and toughness for nickel alloy machining
  • 8° helix angle spiral flute design evacuates chips upward, ideal for blind hole applications in nickel-based alloys
  • CB (Chip Breaker) feature helps break long, stringy chips common when threading nickel alloys
  • TiCN coating reduces friction and significantly extends tool life when threading nickel-based alloys
  • 6HX hexagonal shank for secure tool holding
  • Conforms to DIN dimensional standards
  • Max 2xd chamfer optimized for nickel alloy threading
  • Premium grade specifically engineered for the challenges of nickel-based alloy threading

Applications:

Specifically designed for threading nickel-based alloys such as Inconel, Hastelloy, Monel, and other difficult-to-machine superalloys. Ideal for blind hole threading in nickel alloys where upward chip evacuation is required. The chip breaker feature is essential for managing the long, stringy chips produced by nickel alloys. The HSS-PM construction and TiCN coating provide the wear resistance and heat resistance necessary for successful nickel alloy threading. Recommended for aerospace, chemical processing, and high-temperature applications requiring nickel-based alloy components.
