FAQs

“Straight edge” offers consistent machining for various work materials.
Here are the features of

Left-hand threading:
(1) High vanishing effect and tends to improve surface roughness,
(2) Efficient powder discharge (through hole), and
(3) Easy to raise cutting conditions.

Right-hand threading:
(1) Effective for stop holes because chips are discharged to the shank side,
(2) Provides excellent cutting performance and minimal cutting resistance.

Here are the features of

Carbide Reamers:
(1) High abrasion resistance and long tool life,
(2) Easily finished to the reamer diameter, and
(3) Easy to increase cutting conditions.

High-Speed Steel Reamers:
(1) It’s affordable,
(2) It allows for easy tracking of the bottom hole, and
(3) It’s chip-resistant.

Depending on the depth of the hole, we recommend using our Taper Pin Drill (TPD) series or creating a stepped hole for the bottom portion. A straight hole may have too much allowance for the wider portion.

Key seed cutters feature blades solely on their outer edge, typically boasting a high blade count and proving exceptionally effective for slot cutting keys.

Alternatively, T-slot cutters come equipped with blades situated on three sides of the blade – the tip, neck, and outer edge – allowing for streamlined chip removal and making it ideal for T-slot cutting.

It’s hard to determine the ideal hardness without considering multiple machining conditions. However, the standard recommendation is to work with steel that’s tempered up to ~HRC40.
While it’s possible to exceed this limit, doing so comes with a higher risk of breakage.
