Tool 931i1618B
Small dovetails require precise geometry control. The 931i1618B delivers a 0.25" cutting diameter with 45-degree included angle for miniature workholding features and precision undercuts in tight spaces.
- The R0.01" corner radius eliminates the sharp corner that would otherwise create a stress riser in the finished profile.
- This becomes critical in dynamic workholding where repeated loading can initiate cracks at geometric discontinuities.
- The 0.1378" neck diameter provides clearance for deeper cuts while maintaining tool rigidity at this scale.
- Two flutes balance surface finish with chip evacuation in the confined cutting zone.
- AlTiN coating extends tool life in steel and titanium by reducing crater wear at the cutting edge, particularly important given the interrupted cut nature of dovetail operations.
- Works across steel, titanium, and most machinable metals where precision dovetail geometry is required.
