    Holder Shown with

    Octagon Inserts

    Combine an insert holder with carbide inserts (sold separately) to create a milling cutter, also known as indexable milling cutters. They remove metal at least two times faster than comparable high-speed steel milling cutters. When the cutting edges dull, replace the carbide inserts instead of the entire tool.
    Use with an R8 shank arbor (sold separately).

    Flat-Surface Cut Style

    With larger diameters than end mills, these cutters remove greater amounts of material to create a smooth, flat channel in the face of a plate, bar, or other wide workpiece. Compared to fly cutters, they’re more rigid, which makes for a better finish. Also known as shell cutters. Cutters with fewer teeth provide better chip clearance for high-volume, high-speed cuts. Those with more teeth provide a finer finish and generate less vibration at high speeds.
    Uncoated—Use uncoated cutters for general purpose milling and short production runs. They stay sharper than coated cutters when used on soft materials like aluminum.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN) Coated—Titanium-nitride (TiN) coated cutters create less friction than uncoated cutters, which means they last longer when run at similar speeds. Use coated cutters for demanding, high-speed jobs in hard material as well as for longer production runs. The coating reduces friction and vibration as they’re used, making them more wear resistant than uncoated cutters.
    Aluminum Titanium Nitride (AlTiN) Coated—Aluminum-titanium-nitride (AlTiN) coated cutters dissipate heat better than other cutters, especially at high speeds. At high temperatures, the coating creates a layer of aluminum oxide that transfers heat to the chips, keeping the tool cool, even when used without lubrication. Use coated cutters for demanding, high-speed jobs in hard material as well as for longer production runs. The coating reduces friction and vibration as they’re used, making them more wear resistant than uncoated cutters.
    High-Speed Steel—High-speed steel cutters are good for general purpose milling in most materials including aluminum brass, bronze, and steel.
    Cobalt Steel—Cobalt steel cutters have better heat and wear resistance than high-speed steel. They can run at higher speeds and provide better performance on hard material such as iron, stainless steel, titanium, and tool steel.

    Serrations along the cutting edge act as chip breakers, so these cutters can remove large amounts of material at high speeds without sacrificing tool life. With larger diameters than end mills, they remove greater amounts of material to create a smooth, flat channel in the face of a plate, bar, or other wide workpiece. Compared to fly cutters, they’re more rigid, which makes for a better finish. Also known as shell cutters. With better heat and wear resistance than high-speed steel, these cobalt steel cutters can run at higher speeds and provide better performance on hard material, such as hardened steel, iron, and titanium.

    Coarse Pitch—Coarse pitch cutters create large chips for better performance on soft metals, such as aluminum, brass, and bronze.
    Fine Pitch—Fine pitch cutters last longer than coarse-pitch end mills and produce smaller chips for better performance on hard metals, such as hardened steel, iron, and titanium.
