    Octagonal Insert

    Create your own versatile milling cutters. These kits include a cutter body, inserts, wrenches, and screws. Also known as indexable end mills, replaceable insert milling cutters 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. The inserts come factory sealed from the manufacturer for maximum traceability.
    Use with an R8 shank arbor (sold separately).
    Kits come with either octagon or square inserts.
    Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN)-Coated Carbide Insert—Titanium-aluminum-nitride (TiAlN)-coated inserts dissipate heat better than other inserts, especially at high speeds. At high temperatures, the coating creates a layer of aluminum oxide that transfers heat to the chips, keeping the inserts cool, even when used without lubrication.
    Octagonal Insert—Use octagon inserts for general face milling. With eight cutting edges, they generate smooth cuts.

    Face Milling Cutters

    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.
    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.

    Combine a holder with carbide inserts 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).
    Inserts sold individually come packed in a clear plastic case to protect cutting edges during shipment. Inserts sold in packs come factory sealed from the manufacturer for maximum traceability.
    Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN)-Coated Carbide—Titanium-aluminum-nitride (TiAlN) coated inserts dissipate heat better than other inserts, especially at high speeds. At high temperatures, the coating creates a layer of aluminum oxide that transfers heat to the chips, keeping the inserts cool, even when used without lubrication.
    Octagon—Use octagon inserts for general face milling. With eight cutting edges, they generate smooth cuts.
    Round—Use round inserts for roughing and heavy cuts. Their shape makes them stronger than octagon and square inserts.
    Square—Use square inserts to create a 90° corner when shoulder milling.
